Well I can say this: Some (SOME) rescues ruined their own name by turning MANY MANY people away because of assinine reasons (ie. no fence, work full time, children under 14, etc...) MANY people HERE have beeen turned down for a rescue dog and went out and got their OWN dogs through the pet stores and breeders. So until rescues lax SOME of their rules, this WILL ALWAYS be an ongoing problem. Rescues should not deal with 'rules' so to speak but general guidelines with personalized bending of them. Some homes are GREAT .. I have a GREAT HOME! I tried to rescue, i was told I work full time, there was no way. So that poor dog that I wanted to give a loving home to, is STILL in a shelter!!! YOU CALL THAT FAIR????
AND are you kidding.... I bet that woman has more apps than she can keep track of right now by people who want to get the dogs out of her 'CARE'!!
