If you are considering adding a family pet to your home, have you considered re-homing a dog rather than buying a newborn puppy?
There are many rescue centres across the UK that can help you to find the right dog for your home. Rescue centres have many animals that have been rescued or brought to them by owners that can no longer look after or care for their pet anymore.
Rescue centres tend to have a large variety of breeds to choose from, and you will be able to meet the dog to make sure they are the right addition to your family home. The rescue centre can also offer you advice and tips regarding bringing an older dog into a new environment and making them feel loved once again.
Choosing to re-home a dog can be a rewarding experience for you and your family, book a meeting with your local animal rescue home to see what is involved with re-homing a dog.
