We realize that surrendering a dog can be an emotional experience and that events do occur in peoples lives that leave them no other alternative.

This is something that you should take under careful consideration and should not be done as the result of a snap decision.

If you have reached the conclusion that it is best to surrender your dog, we will need the following:

Copies of all medical records and a certificate of rabies vaccination

A signed surrender agreement and statement outlining the reason for surrender

A surrender fee of $100.00. Note: If you are surrendering the dog due to financial hardship, the fee may be waived and absorbed by The Chi Society of Ct.

Any items or supplies such as a dog bed, crate, leashes, shampoo, etc. that you may have for the dog.

We ask that you transport the dog to us in central Connecticut. If we must collect and transport the dog, a nominal transportation fee will be charged, based on mileage.

We don’t believe in making anyone feel badly about surrendering their dog, we know it is hard enough to do without additional negativity. Contact us by email at TheChiSociety@yahoo.com or by phone at 860-633-1167. We will do our very best to either place your dog in a foster or permanent home, subject to the number of dogs and the available space we have at that particular time.

We reserve the right to refuse any animal, for any reason at the discretion of the management.
