Adopting a rescue from overseas

I've submitted an EOI for a stray rescue dog from Europe.
They dog (bitch) is a terrier crossbreed and just over a year old.

If I'm considered by the charity, what sort of questions should I be asking them? Especially with regards to the dog.

I've not had a dog before, my husband had one 15 years or so ago (cocker)

We as a family are ready for a furry companion, we have the time and space and I so want to get it right.

Any input gratefully received!

I mentioned in my first post on this that I am aware of more than one “cat friendly” overseas rescue, that was anything but, including one that has killed the family cat.

I know of a couple where they’re not convinced the dog that arrived was the dog they were supposed to get 😐

As I mentioned though, mine was in a U.K. rescue, I met him and saw him with cats before bringing him home.
