You are here:
I run a non-profit animal rescue group that specializes in dogs but also works with cats and small animals (hamsters, guinea pigs and an occasional bird). I can help you with most behavioral problems you might encounter when adopting a rescue dog as well as help you working through issues. I can help you with any questions you might have as to the pros/cons of adopting a rescue if you are considering it. I can also help you decide what breed might work best for you if you tell me exactly what you are looking for in a dog.
I run a rescue group and have been doing rescue work for over 20 years.
Just experience, experience, experience!

Hi Becci, I'm not going to be able to answer this one to satisfaction because it is more of a law/legal question. Also being in the US, I'm not sure how it works in the UK. The fact that the dog is
Hi Leah, The short answer is ... it depends on the vet. Generally, they do not scan an animal unless you request it. I would not tell them he was a stray because they would probably suggest it. You
Hi Jamie, I suspect you may not like my answer but I will give you the best answer I can and my honest opinion. For Gunthers sake, you and your roommates are just going to have to be more careful - that
