red face asked:


It had to go due to financial reasons and work committments. It would not be fair leaving it in the house for such long hours. I hope it goes to a loving family who will give it the time and attention it deserves. I feel so guilty. It feels like there is an empty void in my life now but I know I have done the right thing for it to have a better life.
It is going to a good home and the new owners will be vetted. I don’t think I could have done anymore.

bigandneedy asked:


I own a cross bred Yorkshire Terrier, named Thimble. He is so lovable and boistrous and loved playing with other dogs. He is full of beans when I take him out over the fields for his walkies etc,. and runs around with other dogs. When I get home he is ok for a while then he starts to sulk as he gets lonely despite my being there with him. My vet has suggested that I should get him a soul mate, hence my reason for asking my question.

Rehoming a dog, contact with previous owner?

July 23rd, 2009 — 01:45 am

Memphis Belle asked:


If a dog has to be rehomed through no fault of the owner, should the new owner or rescue contact the former owner to let them know the dog is settled and happy?

This could be done by a letter sent to the rescue and forwarded to the previous owner, so no contact information of the new owner would have to be divulged.

Rescuing a dog from a different area? Help please?

July 22nd, 2009 — 04:59 am

asked:


I have fell in love with a dog who is in a rescue centre in Liverpool, his needs are what I can help him with. Originally I was going to go to a breeder and then I came across this little fella, if I contact the kennel will they tell me it is not possible to adopt him because I am so far away? (In Newcastle) as I think they do home visits first

So does anyone know where I stand with this?

Thanks.

rehoming a dog – What do you all think?

July 20th, 2009 — 11:24 pm

Eloise asked:


Ok i need some advice here.

My partner and i have 2 dogs. We’ve had dogs for years, and currently have a 24 week old Doberman and a 3 year old Springer Spaniel.

Molly (The doberman) has been housetrained perfectly from just under 12 weeks, and very well behaved, however the past week or so she has taken to using the bathroom in the house, hanging off Tobys (the Springers) tail, biting, jumping up and snappng at strangers (never been something shes been allowed to do), getting very aggresive around food, even if it is not hers, attacking our other dog if he goes too near (He is the calmest dog you would ever meet, does little more than sleep and agility once a week), barking and growling during the night… Shes just being a nightmare. I know she is a pup, and ive had 8 dogs from pups already, but this is going much too far.

She was a ‘present’ from a friend of the family, who has now left the country. What would you suggest? I have had her checked out by the vet, with a clean bill of health, and been to 3 different trainers, all of which have been stumped by her behaviour.

IF she was to be rehomed, she would be spayed first so she could not be bred from, but im just wondering if this would be the best course of action – Its placing a huge strain on my relationship, and Toby hates it now! He loved her until this all started.

She has not had anything at all changed, no different foods, no change of routine, nothing at all.
Yes Toby is neutered, and Molly is booked in for the end of next week.

She is my 3rd Doberman, and i’ve had them all from pups, so i knew what i was taking on.

She is crate trained, even knowing what Bed Time means and going in herself. She gets all the attention she could ever want, Toby even went to stay with a friend for a week to see if it was him that was the problem, but this made things worse
