FOUND DOG- NOW REHOMED :)-What to do with a dog we found 2 weeks ago?

Person_one

For the record, not all dogs that end up in pounds are put down after 7 days!

Many are rehomed, either directly from the pound or after moving on to a rescue.

Battersea Dogs Home is a 'pound'!

There_Goes_Trouble

That's a good point Person_one, and perhaps one that should have been emphasised earlier.

Caro, did you ever find the owner?

BitterAndTwisted

I'm glad you bumped this thread Peachy. I've been wondering the same. She sounds like a lovely animal and I refuse to believe that someone somewhere can't be looking for her. Look at that photo: she's a beauty. Oh, if only I had a house and not a flat.......

OP: what happened to that possible new home your son mentioned?

BitterAndTwisted

I've been thinking (bumpalicious) aren't dalmatians carriage-hounds? Doesn't that mean that they could run for a very long time? Perhaps this beautiful darling has come from a very long way away and may not have been intentionally "lost" at all?

You can tell that I don't want to accept that anyone anywhere could do such a thing, can't you, even when I know there are?

Hi all

Sooooooo sorry I haven't updated this thread. I'm pleased to say that 'Mitzi' has a new forever home with a friend of our family. We kept her till 12th January as per the 28 days legal requirement, although she did have a trial few days just before at her new home to make sure she settled ok.

Thanks to everyone who posted
