Welcoming home with a happy American Bully representing the Buy a Home, Save a Dog initiative

Buy a Home, Save a Dog

A New Home Can Help Another One Begin.

A Vidal & Co. initiative connecting an important real estate milestone with responsible rescue adoption and meaningful support for local dog rescues.

Why We Created the Program

Real Estate With a Little More Heart.

We believe an important move can create a positive impact beyond the real estate transaction itself.

Eligible clients who purchase a home with Vidal & Co. may receive support toward an approved rescue adoption. Every residential property listed and sold by our team also creates a donation for our rescue partners.

The initiative is designed to support responsible adoption while helping local rescue organizations continue their important work.

Every Move Can Make a Difference

A Successful Move Can Help Create Another Fresh Start.

Buying or selling a home is an important life milestone. Through Buy a Home, Save a Dog, that milestone can also help support local rescue organizations and responsible adoption.

The program is not about encouraging someone to adopt before they are ready. It is about providing meaningful support when the right family, the right dog, and the right time come together.

Two Ways the Initiative Helps

One Program. Two Meaningful Commitments.

01

Support Toward an Approved Rescue Adoption

Eligible clients who purchase with Vidal & Co. may have the approved standard adoption fee paid directly to the rescue organization.

Rescue approval remains completely independent and is never guaranteed.

02

Every Vidal & Co. Listing Sold Helps

When a residential property listed by Vidal & Co. successfully closes, our team donates $300 to support our rescue partners.

It is one more way each successful move can create a positive impact in the community.

The Buyer Journey

How the Adoption Benefit Works

The process is simple, but responsible adoption and the wellbeing of the animal always come first.

01

Purchase With Vidal & Co.

Complete an eligible home purchase with our team and review the current written program terms with your Vidal & Co. representative.

02

Apply Through a Rescue

Submit an application directly to a participating rescue. The rescue independently assesses suitability, readiness, and the potential match.

03

Create a Positive Impact

If an adoption is approved, Vidal & Co. pays the eligible fee directly to the rescue. If adoption does not proceed, the program may still create a rescue donation according to the current terms.

Responsible Adoption Comes First

The Right Home Matters for Everyone.

Adoption is never an obligation, a guaranteed benefit, or a condition of working with Vidal & Co.

Every rescue follows its own application, matching, home-check, and approval process. The animal's wellbeing, the adopter's readiness, and the potential for a safe lifelong match always come first.

Please note:

Buy a Home, Save a Dog is operated and funded by the Vidal & Co. Real Estate Team. It is not operated or funded by LPT Realty Brokerage.
