Please choose this option to pay our processing fee if you are applying to adopt a Coco's Heart dog. This fee goes toward our administrative resources used to start and complete the adoption process. This fee is non-refundable, as we begin our process as soon as you submit your application. If CHDR does not or has not received this processing fee, your application unfortunately will not be processed and you will not hear from us.

Submitting the processing fee does not guarantee you the dog you are interested in is available. If the dog is no longer available, we will work with you on either placing your name on a waiting list or helping find a match for you! We strive to work with applicants that are committed to our process of finding lifelong matches for our applicants.

UPDATE- As of January 1st, 2026, the processing fee will be valid for 1 year from the date of submission/payment. If you have submitted a processing fee longer than 1 year ago, you will be asked to submit a new fee so we can complete the processing of your application.

Please e-mail applications@cocosheartdogrescue.org with any questions!
