[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I worked with racing greyhound adoptions org. for decades. I have seen so many times. People go into finding homes start off wanting to do the right thing ending being self righteous. I’ve adopted many abused greys and shelter dogs but what I see now it has gone overboard. A better way would let people go and pick out a dog. Dogs choose us. Adopting any dog you’ve never met is the recipe for a disaster. If there is no strong bond things go badly. The best would be requiring new owners attend prep class going into detail on what a dog owner needs to do. That will weed out some. Dogs are the best thing for so many people. Being treated like a criminal to get a dog isn’t good for anybody or any dog. This is a bad trend. [/quote] I think the prep class prior to adoption is a great idea! [/quote]
