Just to post up i've spoken to the RGT today.

They said they would prefer it if they rehomed him which was quite a surprise to me, but they cannot take him in for about 2 weeks. They said in the mean time if i do find someone that they will do the home check, paperwork, donation, etc.

They prefer to do the rehoming because apparently in the past they've had to rescue some of their own dogs which were rehomed by owners after they had been adopted out. In one instance they had to take some of their own dogs from a travellers site.

I can see their point of view. My concern is that he would be in a kennel for weeks, they have said being that he is a fawn he should be rehomed quickly.

Thanks for your posts and if anyone is interested pm me and i can discuss the situation, as well as putting you in touch with Monmore RGT.
