Moorook Animal Shelter - Rehoming Your Pet

Please give this considerable thought as each dog is so terribly traumatised upon delivery to the shelter.

There are 100 different dogs barking and possibly a thousand different smells making it a terrifying experience for them to endure without their master.

If people came back to the shelter the following day, most would collect their dogs and take them back home.

This is not a nice place for them to end up, this is where they come when they only have one other option.

If you are unable to keep your pet, please, ask friends, family or work colleagues if they would be interested, place posters up at your local supermarket, you would be amazed at how well this can work.

This form of rehoming is far less traumatic on your faithful companion, but if unsuccessful please bring them to the shelter.

When they are residing at the shelter they are one of one hundred for people to choose from - that is a lot of competition

Please read the story 'How Could You' before bringing your dog to the shelter .... you may find there is another alternative for your pet.

If you have a purebred dog you're considering rehoming please contact your breed club below ... They may have someone on a waiting list for an older dog & you could save your pet the trauma of being placed in a shelter.
