Shared Adoption Scheme (SAS)
Subsidised veterinary care for adopted dogs in extreme old age or with chronic medical conditions.
Welcome to the Shared Adoption Scheme
(SAS) is a well established scheme to allow dogs of extreme old age or require ongoing veterinary treatment for one, or multiple, documented pre-existing condition(s) to be rehomed. We now have over 9,000 dogs on the scheme. The SAS is funded by charitable donations and it is not an insurance scheme.
To find out more about this scheme, please read our terms and conditions.
Due to new government guidelines, we are no longer able to post medications to Northern Ireland, please contact the SAS or VSF teams for more information and assistance.
This site is aimed to help you access information regarding the SAS 24 hours a day and is accessible only to owners and vets involved with dogs under this scheme.
