Dont use pads4pooches, they are soley on facebook.
Pads4pooches is not a registered charity, nor is it a registered buisness. They take on dogs with either no background info, or info that would make the dogs unsuitable for rehoming. I have had 1 dog from them. I was told by Michelle (apparent manager) that the dog i agreed to foster was good with other dogs and people, and that she was just excitable. After several weeks of unreturned calls and almost a month for reimbursement for the dogs vet costs, the dog had an altercation with my dog causing over £350 in vet bills. After going as far as to message Michelles mother in law on facebook, i was finally able to get hold of her and let her know what had happend, and that the foster dog would need to go. She posted on their facebook page making out that the fault was our own. After a second attempt at trying to attack one of my reisdent dogs, i contacted the foster dogs prior foster carers for info, i was told that they had the dog for just 8hrs, and she tried to attack their dog, they went on to explain the they too had contacted the prior foster carer what had the dog for just 36hrs. And she also tried to attack their dogs. I confronted Michelle about this, as she had previously told me that the prior foster carer had the dog for a week but thier dogs couldnt keep up with her excitable nature. She also failed to mention that the 2 prior foster carers, 3 including myself had advised that the dog was not a good fit for other dogs. I had to resort to threatening the police and having the dog pts before michelle would do anything. She eventually sent me an address to take the dog to. Turns out this foster carer had been given zero information whatsoever. I was left to explain everything. A few days went by and i came across the dogs original post on another Facebook page which said, Looking for funding, dog is completely out of control and would need an ongoing behaviourist. Needless to say this too was never mention. I again confronted michelle with this info. And she attempted to claim it was an old post. It then came to my attention that many other people had similar experiences and had contacted by the rspca and bluecross to ask for help. Also the they had abandoned 2 dogs at different kennels after running up a £600 bill at one and £2500 at another. So i went back to michelle, and she began with threats of legal action and acusing me of not caring about dogs. Having been rescuing dogs for the last 15yrs and being a volenteer with the bluecross for around 10 of them, i told her i would be happy to see her in court. After calling her out, she then blocked me. No contracts where given or signed, however i have been shown 1 contract that michelle had the dogs original foster carer sign, and after reading through it, it wasnt even a contract for that dog. They claim to be a non profit organisation but they charge upto £690 per dog. They have been reported to the police, trading standards, the rspca, the registered charity commission and the animal rescue centres governing body. By using this sham of a group, made up of only a facebook page, you are putting yours and any one/dogs in your home at risk.
