Our Rescue + Shelter Partnership Program is designed to help organizations take in healthy, adoption-ready dogs and puppies—without the unpredictable costs and health risks. Every dog transferred through our program meets high veterinary and behavioral standards, ensuring a smooth transition to you and, ultimately, a loving home.
At Gigi's every dog transferred is fully vetted and adoption ready, meaning they've gone through Gigi's Adoption Wellness + Package and will be
This eliminates the unpredictable costs and health risks organizations often face when transferring dogs in need from impoverished, rural shelters. Instead of spending resources on medical treatments or emergency care, you can focus on placing dogs into loving homes.
* Gigi's Parvo Guarantee: If a transferred puppy tests positive for parvo within 14 days of transfer, Gigi's will cover the full cost of treatment at Gigi’s Parvo Treatment Center. Treatment and expenses at other veterinary clinics are not covered by this guarantee.
Healthy, Fully Vetted Dogs & Puppies
Every dog is spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and dewormed before transfer, ensuring they’re ready for adoption.
Behaviorally Assessed & Socialized
Dogs and puppies receive early enrichment and foundational training, setting them up for success in a home environment and making transitions easier.
Health Assurance & Parvo Guarantee
Puppies coming into rescues + shelters from unknown sources often bring risks like canine parvovirus (CPV) or other preventable illnesses. Our study on deferred puppy intake showed that shelters can significantly reduce parvo cases and increase survival rates by only bringing in puppies that are properly vetted—which is exactly what Gigi’s does.
Cost Savings & Predictability
Instead of spending $200-$500 per dog on vet care, Rescue + Shelter Partners receive all of this for a low program fee—allowing you to direct resources toward other lifesaving efforts.
Dogs can be picked up seven days a week, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., from our South Columbus location.
We offer transport based on distance and the number of dogs being transferred. Contact us for a customized transport quote.
