Placement
PLACEMENT POLICIES AND PROCEDURES:
Rottweilers are wonderful animals and devoted family members when given the attention and treatment they deserve. If you are considering adopting a Rottweiler, information can be obtained by contacting Recycled Rotts. Please let us know what type of Rottweiler you would prefer, be it male or female, and what age range. Unfortunately, we always have a steady influx of Rotts, but, even though we receive so many rotties into the rescue, we might not have your pet right away. Applications are held, but, please be sure to contact us periodically. We ask for your patience. Recycled Rotts is under no obligation to contact you should your application not be processed. Recycled Rotts reserves the right to refuse any placement.

Calls to prospective adopters are made from personal phones of Recycled Rotts volunteers. If you do not recognize a name or number and choose not to answer, please make sure to check your messages. Only when an application is approved do we make an appointment with the prospective adopter to make sure the dog(s) would be candidates.

Adopters must be at least 25 years of age and demonstrate responsible ownership, including spay/neuter of current pets, and have previous dominant large breed or other working breed dog experience.

All applicants must be 25 or over. We will not place a rottweiler in a home where there are children under 5. Remember that Recycled Rotts has the right to refuse a placement.
