We don't have any hard and fast rules about what makes a suitable home as we understand every dog is different.  Our adoption application raises a number of questions which will help us to determine whether your home and family environment is suitable for a particular dog.  We look to make sure that the property has adequate space and fences, that other animals or people in the house won't provide a source of conflict, and that you can provide a lifestyle that is suitable to that particular dog.  This list is of course not exhaustive, and while our adoption application may seem to ask quite a lot of questions, it is important that we match the right dog to the right home, and to ensure that both the dog and it's new family are happy for the rest of its life.
