Let me FIRST say that I did not READ the documents referenced in the prior posts.
So that will explain why I have NO CLUE what I am saying from now on........
My understanding from hearing about strict adoption rules is that the rescues have the animals' best interest in mind. The hope is that once adopted, the animal will be in a forever home (barring death of the animal or the owner(s)).
They do THEIR BEST to screen people however their efforts are sometimes interpreted as being too extreme. Case in point: I tried to adopt a dog years ago but was turned down because I did not have a 6' fence and a doggie door at the time.
Unfortunately home-owners policies are an issue also now as many BAN several dog breeds,and some go far enough to ban ALL dogs from liability.
So .... there are many issues that come into play .... I assume the aforementioned has SOMETHING to do with the reason you posted?
Do these people ever adopt out the dogs they have posted?
I am really pi$$ed off right now.
