Q8. Do the dogs you rescue shed?

Arizona Retriever Rescue - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
A8. Absolutely! Goldens shed a little all year round and twice a year they lose most of their coat. Anyone intent on a "hair free" home, should reconsider getting a Golden. Their coat requires brushing of at least once a week. Their hair can be long and can become matted if it isn't properly cared for. A thorough grooming to trim the hair on the paws, tail, and around the ears needs to be done on a monthly basis.

Of that 21,695 dogs, only 1,475 were reclaimed by their owners. Even less than that (539 dogs) were adopted.

Do you rescue dogs from private owners?

Dalmatian Adoption and Rescue
We will take a dog from a private owner when we have the space, but this is rare. Because of the terrible shortage of foster homes and the abundance of dogs who are at risk of being killed, most often we cannot do this. We prefer to rescue from the pounds that are "kill facilities", that is, where animal euthanasia takes place.

Where do the rescue dogs come from?

Samoyed Rescue - What is Rescue?
Dogs need new homes for a variety of reasons, but the most common ones are because the owners had a change in their lifestyle and are not able or willing to include the dog in that change (moving, new baby, new house, etc.). Most are neglected and thrive when given the attention they need. Some have not been neglected or abused, but just simply need a new home. A few have been abused in the past, but luckily, these are few and far between. A few also come from puppy mill closures..

What about dogs from breed rescue?

Psychiatric Service Dog Society
A Google search of your chosen breed along with the search term "rescue" should bring many results. The benefit of breed rescue dogs is that they are often housetrained and/or crate trained, spayed/neutered, vaccinated and ready for a loving home. Sometimes, they will have already reached maturity, so you will know how big or small the dog will be and if it will be suitable for your needs.

Are the rescue dogs house trained?

DFW Dachshund Rescue Foundation | FAQ
Although we cannot guarantee that these dogs are reliably house trained, this skill is worked on with each dog by its respective foster parent. We will be able to give you a specific update on where each dog is in regard to his/her housetraining skills. Keep in mind that as a rule, dogs do not generalize well, so even a housetrained dachshund will need to re-learn this skill in his or her new home. Dachshunds ARE trainable with patience and adherence to consistency.

Why are the dogs and cats in a rescue rather than in a home?

Frequently Asked Questions
There are many reasons why an animal can end up in a rescue situation. One of the biggest reasons is unwanted litters. We receive many requests every week to take in unwanted litters of puppies and kittens. That's why every dog and cat that is old enough is spayed or neutered before they leave our rescue. Some animals come to us as strays.
