This is a scam. Rehoming fee??? No way, if you are rescuing/adopting from a family, you pick up the dog, what's left of the food, his bed, toys, leash, etc. You do not give them money for that. And the fact that they say they will put him down if they can't rehome by next week? It's to get the victim to feel sorry for the dog (which may not even exist) and give them money.
I had an elderly client of mine that couldn't keep for adult male yorkie (her husband died and it was his dog for the most part) and I asked her how much she was asking for him. She said "nothing, just to a good home is all". That's how much it should cost to rehome an older dog, NOTHING.
