WHY DOGS NEED RE-HOMING
We are contacted (at almost any hour of the day or night) by people wanting their dogs re-homed.
Usually nothing is wrong with the dogs unless problems have been inflicted by the previous owner.
We get as many pedigree dogs as we get mongrels.
Typical reasons for dogs coming to us for re-homing include:
Going out to work full-time
Can’t cope because of young children
Expecting a baby
Going on holiday
Novelty has worn off
Dog is no longer earning money – Greyhounds normally
Note: Unwanted gifts at Christmas are not usually a feature.
Advisory Service
One of the by-products of our work is the giving of advice to owners who have problems with their dog ownership. If the home would otherwise be suitable, resolving the problem is better than re-homing.
There are a confusing array of dog ownership books and programmes available, but in the end, a few practical suggestions based upon common sense indicate the best way forward.
We are also able to give advice about diets and special foods for dogs.
For advice please contact Gyll on: 01778 440318 or 07708 589792
