rescue. Many of these groups, however, take only dogs from high-kill shelters and not from individuals. They can also look for what is called cross-posting folks on FB and message or post as allowed about their dog so others will post on their pages.

They can try “ rescue me” online all one word where they can post by location and breed. They can find breed-specific groups too at FB and message and/or post. Some arrange transport,

They should disclose that dog is protective of his people and had one incident if snapping at a jogger running towards or. close to family. If they can afford to they can have their dog tested for temperament/behavior so as to better find the right home and describe the situation.

A few municipal animal care and control shelters do a good job of marketing, but many do not have the resources or are just bad places run badly. Many do behavior tests themselves and if a dog already shelter shocked or at least emotiinall6 stressed snaps or bites, that’s it.

Facebook has a very wide and deep dog welfare and rescue community, though there are some scams. They can try to re-home themselves through something like “next door”, an online neighborhood bulletin, message board that goes by neighborhood throughout the country, They should make full disclosure and charge a rehoming fee of at least 150 dollars, never for free.
