There’s a rescue near me where I’ve seen people posting on their Facebook that they “had” to get a puppy because they live in a flat. there are people who just aren’t in the position to have dogs, but think they are tbh. Smaller rescues are more flexible, because they can be.īut even then, honestly, most people who “can’t” rescue a dog either haven’t tried, or got turned down for one dog or. so they’re rare, but they do have dogs occasionally that can be rehomed with small children or cats or whatever. But they don’t actually have ones about children or other pets, they just are really really cations about saying a particular dog is suitable to live with those because if it goes wrong they’ll get fallout from it. The big rescue organisations do have some blanket rules, that are usually linked to the welfare of the dogs, outside space, not being left to work etc. They work the same way a lot of rescues do, you apply, they vet you, then if you’re not turned down after that, they have dogs they think might suit and you meet those. They don’t just rehome dogs to random people who turn up, the tv show is at the end of the application process when they’ve already gone through applications. I thought The Dog House presented a really positive and refreshing attitude to rehoming and I wonder why other rescues haven't followed suit. the Dogs Trust, who appear to be much stricter, find their rehoming practices reckless? Is this really representative of the experience of anyone who goes to their rehoming centre, or is it just for TV? Why is their approach so different from other big animal charities? It can't be that all the 'easy dogs' miraculously end up at Wood Green (where The Dog House is based).
Families with small children with no prior dog experience, people living in flats, people who go out to work, people who have existing dogs and cats. If you have watched Channel 4's The Dog House, they seem to be able to find a suitable dog for just about everyone who comes through their doors. There is always a lot of talk on here about inflexible homing policies (especially of the big animal charities) and how they force many people to buy or adopt from abroad. This is inspired by a recent thread asking why so many people choose to rehome from abroad.
