Our Dogs are rescued from Romania and the UK

Whilst it is exciting to  get a dog, and you want to wash,  walk, play , sleep  with your dog, none of this happens over night. 

You need to be patient with your dog, 

You need to give them time  to trust you, they  have been let down by humans and have no idea of your intentions . 

They have been in a shelter , some  may have been sharing a kennel with another dog.

Some may not have had much human interaction 

All of the dogs need someone to nurture them, which includes walking, and picking up after them, therefore you must have the physical fitness to be able to attend the dogs needs, if you do not have the physical capacity please do not apply. 

Because our dogs have been through so much already we ask to seriously consider if this is something you are committed to do, with patience love and understanding. If not please do not apply, we have had many people adopt the dogs to only return them within days, which then unsettles them and makes them withdrawn, because they have been abandoned and they do not understand why, 

They could have been abandoned, by a road, in a field, at a kill shelter, born in a rescue centre.

They could be from a broken home (domestic violence)

They could be from a home due to a change in circumstances 

They could have been in a shelter from Months to years 

They could have come from Shelter, been in a home and back into a shelter 

They may never have lived in a house before , never seen a TV, let alone heard one. 

Some have never seen their reflection

Q: Why do i have to wait 3 days till i can walk the dog?

A: It is a lot of change for the dog, they need time to decompress and get used to their new surroundings,  you need to give them time to build a bond and trust with you, to ensure it is relaxing/joyful for your dog, reduce any potential reactivity,  or want to escape.

Q Can i wash my dog when i get them home?

A: We would strongly advise to leave it a few days, it is overwhelming enough for your dog, to be in a strange environment, different smells and sounds. Give them some time to adjust. Use pet friendly wipes if needed  while giving them time to settle.
