Donating YT 4000 Club Member | I feel that when a person can't or won't love, and give the dog the attention, love and care a dog deserves then is Time to give the dog the oportunity to look for what he deserves with a family or individual that can provide all that for him or her.. I have an open door no questions ask for puppies that i have bred, because I belive on second chances for the dogs.. hugs, |

| Alot of times it is alot of angish for someone to even consider rehoming and I understand that. If the person is putting whats best for the dog first and have considered all other alternatives then I feel its okay to rehome.

| Always the safety and security of the pup must be considered. If there's someone out there who is willing and able to give a dog a happy, loving and stable home... then why not? What I don't agree with is people trying to recoup costs or purchase fees on a dog that is being re-homed. If you need to find him or her a home, then the home they go to should be the biggest consideration, not making a few bucks. That kind of thing angers me

| I agree with all of the above. Often people don't realize how much work, money, time, love must go into a puppy/ dog. They often have some idea, then when they get the dog they are overwhelmed. If someone can't give the dog all the attention they deserve and NEED then the dog should be rehomed. Most people should be more responsible in the first place and put the preparation and time into getting a puppy before adopting one. |

| I will say one thing: I HATE when people get dogs as gifts because more times than not, they end up going from home to home, but that is just a pet peeve of mine. I do appreciate when people actually interview and get references from the perspective new family. That truly shoes that they care about the best interest of the dog.

| I think someone who needs to rehome for a really good reason, medical, death, new crazy hour job etc then what's best for the dog is best, period. What I cannot stand is someone who gives away a dog because of training/behavior problems (their fault), or because cute little puppy grew up to a not as cute or small dog. Case in point, a lady I know has a dog and she wants to give him away because she is getting a NEW DOG!!!! That is going to be "smaller" and "cuter". BARF I really read into her, I think thats mean mean mean!!!
