Re: Staffie Free To Good home

He looks lovely
have you tried dogpages forums?
<Dogpages UK dog rescue forums>

Many rescues post on there and will be able to take him in and get him a foster placement, get him neutered, vaccinated if necessary and assessed (so that they can find him the perfect owners).
I seriously think that this would be the best thing you could do for him; get him a rescue placement with a rescue that has foster placements (rather than putting him in kennels), his new owners will be vetted and home checked and the rescues will know exactly what to look for to ensure he gets a fantastic home!

I definately agree that if you do rehome him yourself, you MUST get him neutered! An unneutered male large male staffie "free to a good home", definately could be snatched up by the wrong people! Either for fighting or to be intensively bred from! Horrible I know but some people only see the £ signs and couldn't give a **** about the poor dogs

You say you want him to go straight to his new home- you could even offer to foster him yourselves for the rescue in the short term? Then he would go straight to his new home once they had been home checked etc.

Re: Staffie Free To Good home

Hi

I just wanted to say, I completely agree with Lemmsy's post. We are not a breed specific rescue, but we do rescue staffies primarily, due to the crisis that staffies are in. Unfortunately, there are so many dogs who look just like Bruno in pounds all across the UK, as well as ones that are just given away or chucked out etc etc, and sadly, the breeding still continues

Please, as Lemmsy says, hand him over to a good rescue, that way you know the rescue will be responsible for him for the rest of his life, and they will ensure he will never end up as another homeless staffie. You don't want him to go from home to home, but he's far more likely to end up in that position if you home him yourself. People will say all sorts of things and you have no guarantee that his future is certain once you let go of him. He will definitely end up in the wrong hands if you don't neuter him, should you decide to rehome him yourself!

If you would like some help, please email me cathy@oncelovedrescue.org.uk I will do all I can to help.

Re: Staffie Free To Good home

He is a very beautiful dog. I hope you can manage to find him a safe and loving new home because of your sad change in circumstances. Just be so careful who you give him to.
