SAD Adoption Fees
All SAD dogs are vet checked, fully vaccinated (inclusive of kennel cough and rabies), micro-chipped, wormed, treated for external parasites and sterilized. All these things are done to guarantee the current and future health of our dogs and ensure they have the SAD stamp of approval ready for homing. SAD ia a non-profit organisation reliant upon donations from the public. The adoption fees charged cover the costs incurred by us to get a dog ready for homing.
SAD adoption fees for Crossbreed dogs are as follows:
1500 dhs per dog
SAD adoption fees for all Purebreed dogs are as follows:
2000-3000 dhs per dog (dependant on the breed and size)
To put these fees into context the table below illustrates the average cost you would incur at a vet clinic in Abu Dhabi to have all the necessary vaccinations/health checks and sterilization done on your new dog after aquisition/purchase. All prices are based on a 15-20kg dog which is the typical size of a SAD crossbreed dog.
| VET SERVICE | COST |
| First Vet Health Check | 150 |
| First Puppy Vaccine | 110 |
| Kennel Cough Vaccine | 110 |

This table clearly illustrates how the SAD adoption fee saves the new owner 600- 800dhs in addition to guaranteeing the new owner is adopting a healthy dog who has been behaviourally assessed and given the SAD seal of approval!
