they have been turned down ?? they live right on the cliffs at heysham with the beach 1 min away there is a garden ,and they are in a quiet road . they are both fit and well middle 50s and love long walks, the dog would not be left on its own as they can take dog to work as they own their own garage . it dosnt seem fair.
Was it the RSPCA? We were turned down some years ago as there would be no one at home for 3 hours one morning a week
What do they think happens when people go shopping? I've never seen a dog in Tesco's yet.
I explained we had had dogs previously who each lived to a ripe old age, but they wouldnt budge.
makes you wonder if they actually want to rehome. I know there has to be safeguards but a little common sense goes a long way. Oh, silly me, I forgot, common sense has been dispensed with
I wrote them a really ripe letter, didnt get me anywhere, but I felt better.
We eventually got a dog from another rescue centre and we had him from 5months until he died at 16
We now have our 3rd rescue (avatar) chewed everything in sight, but she has been forgiven
Tomnjune I would try other rescues if I were you.
I have experience of how the Dogs Trust handle applicants and they give great weight to people who register with them and come to the centre regularly to look at the dogs. The more often you go the more brownie points you get. I'm not saying that they will let you have a dog but that is the best way to go about it.
They also like people to take their advice about the suitability of certain dogs.
Another, independent, rescue centre just goes on gut instinct. If they like you then you are accepted.
To be fair to Dogs Trust (and RSPCA) they do get an awful lot of dogs returned because owners make the wrong choices.
Great news once again folks - Molly has a new home with the couple who took her out the other day. They obviousy carefully considered the future and chose to take her - isn't that great - Now I promise no more lost/found animals from me (I think) Thank you all for your concerns. PS Double page article in the Mail this week - all about people not been able to adopt dogs easliy or not at all. Its such a shame. Marie
I only read this last night and threw hubby into panic when I said a red boxer girl needs a home...
I lost my first boxer boy in October 10 and I still have one boxer girl who is 12.
If I were to have another I would like a red girl, so I was very tempted, although now would not be the right time as my girl is old and not very friendly!!!
Therefore, I am very relieved that she has found a home and I don't need to go through any more torment!!
