Rescue groups are usually very careful about placing the right dog in the right home.
Some dogs have special needs, such as being an only dog, or being in a home with no children.
We spend many hours talking with potential adopters, getting to know their situations. We visit their homes to make sure it is the best environment for the particular dog to be in. In general, we take the same steps a good breeder would to ensure that the match we finally make is a good one. We are only human, however, and we do make mistakes. But we always try to do what is in the dog's best interest.
