3. Verify that they IF they are renters, that they are allowed to have a pet...

4. Microchip your girl with YOUR info so, that IF someday down the road they lose or surrender your girl to a shelter, that YOU will be notified FIRST!

5. If they have other animals, do a meet up with the family & their other animals to make sure your girl gets along and is safe...

6. If you do not have the time to do any of these things then, please consider surrendering your girl to a reputable local breed specific rescue organization!

Those are just a few things to do before rehoming...if anyone else would like to offer their suggestions...please do!

Good luck to your girl in finding the right home/family!
Thanks so much for the info/suggestions. I had done my research and read the sticky here on YT about rehoming prior to posting about Natalie so I'm already aware of most of these. I assure you that we love Natalie very much and will only give her up to an excellent home. I've had many people contact me and I'm sure they were all nice people, but most were not what we were looking for so I've told them no thank you. I am following up with vet references, etc. for those who do seem like a good fit. She has already been microchipped & is registered with our info. Thanks again for your concern!
