Hello! Our gorgeous JRT passed away a few months back and we’re now feeling ready to get another dog. I'm desperate to rehome one! We can provide such a lovely life for a dog with me working from home and being here most of the time, a nice enclosed garden, regular walking holidays, great doggy support network for the times we can’t be there etc etc etc.
But it’s so so difficult. I’m often getting turned down as our daughter is just 3. And the dogs which are suitable for young families go so quickly.
Any recommendations before we find ourselves having no choice but to buy a pup from a (reputable well researched) breeder? I’m looking at smaller rehoming centres within a 60m radius, larger ones too. I have joined countless FB groups and am getting alerts. I'm checking sites like ManyTears. Maybe there are some I'm missing?!
