Transform A Street Dog’s mission is to support animal activists in Ukraine and other countries experiencing overwhelming street dog crises. Thank you for your interest in adopting a former street dog.
Adoption Fee: The adoption fee for Ukrainian dogs consists of titer test fee of $150 and transportation fee of $800. The total adoption fee of $950 covers about ⅔ of the cost to get the dog from Ukraine to the US, the rest is raised by Transform A Street Dog’s volunteers. For every animal that is adopted, we take another suffering animal off of the street and start preparing them for life as a pet. In the program, animals receive necessary medical care, food, shelter, and obedience training. The adoption fees are 100% tax deductible as we are a registered 501c3.
Timing: The time to import a dog from Ukraine to the US can range from 60-90 days. We order titer tests, apply for needed CDC permits, prepare other health documents, search for flight volunteers and arrange the flight.
