The object of this charity is to find our dogs good quality loving homes and not just to re-home as many dogs as possible by moving them on quickly. 1. Prior to dog viewing a pre-adoption home visit is usually made to potential new owners, we must meet all members of the family including any children and pets to ensure the environment is right. A secure area suitable for the type of dog is essential.
2. Keith’s Rescue Dogs is primarily a Lincolnshire based charity, it is very expensive to travel up and down the country carrying out home checks so we re-home only in Lincolnshire. The exception to this is for our long term dogs.
3. We do not re-home dogs with families who have children under 4 years of age. German Shepherds, Rottweilers or similar guard dog breeds are not re-homed with families who have children under 13 years of age.
4. All our dogs are stringently assessed for behavioural problems and temperament issues including chewing, phobias and car sickness. Dogs are neutered, inoculated and micro-chipped.
5. Once a home visit is completed we will arrange for potential new owners to visit the kennels and meet compatible dogs, we ask all members of the family including dogs to come along.
6. On choosing a dog new owners are asked to make a donation to the charity, they are also required to sign a re-homing contract. The contract states that if for any reason they have to part with the dog it cannot be sold or passed onto a third party but must be returned to the charity. This is a safety net system to safeguard the dogs future.
7. A post home visit will be carried out by one of the trustees to make sure the dog has settled in and help resolve any issues you or the dog may have.
