Why is it hard for me to re-home my own dog?
It is hard to be objective when there are emotional and time pressures.
Certain breeds attract a lot of attention and applicants who are not genuine can waste a great deal of time and sometimes cause offence. It can also be very daunting to sift through all the applicants. Some applicants also misrepresent themselves and can be very convincing. Would you feel comfortable doing a house assessment?
Other dogs attract very little attention. This may make you compromise on what you really want when someone 'half decent' eventually applies.
Dog Adoption will try to filter out the time wasters, encourage applicants who are mindful of your feelings and guide you through the process - so you don’t make a rash decision.
You can always withdraw your dog from the program if your circumstances change however, please don't delay getting the process started. The more time you give us the better.
