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.

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).
