• Dunno, just got a generic email back…

    Thank you so much for your recent rehoming application.

    We are writing to let you know that sadly, we have not been able to match you with this particular dog on this occasion. We understand this will be a disappointment and wanted to reassure you that we greatly appreciate the time you have given to this process.

    Regretfully, we cannot give individual feedback at this stage. Our team handles over 1100 calls every day and devotes a huge amount of time to managing every rehoming application, as well as caring for our beloved dogs. Thank you in advance for your understanding.

    We’ll keep looking, we’re in no real hurry other than we want a dog, just a shame as the one above sounded to fit the bill perfectly. We’d rather rescue as there are so many.

  • The rescue we got Crumpet through, Underdog International were great with us. Instead of applying for a particular dog, we gave them some info about our living situation and what requirements we had for a dog (good with cats, small children etc) and they matched us with a dog that would fit well. We'd already been disappointed when we weren't successful with an application to adopt another dog from another rescue (that probably wouldn't have been as good a fit as Crumpet).

  • Forever hounds trust (well when it was actually greyhound rescue west of England) took a similar approach with our first hounds. We had actually originally planned to only get one but they matched us with a pair that got on really well and that actually made a lot of sense as the two of them kept each other company while we were at work.

  • Thank you, I’ll see what my partner thinks
