Great looking dog!!!

:( :( Do you know if this guy was previously checked out? :eek:

Yes, Sue, 3 different rescues had interviewed him over the phone and ok'ed him. But, like Tom said, that doesn't replace face to face. He said he would definitely keep us up to date on the happenings.

This case illustrates why home checks are so valuable. Even if it was a long distance adoption, it would help if some rescue in the area could have checked him out before placing him.

Praying that everything works out for him. I know Anatolian Shepherds are a working group dog, but I still like my dogs sleeping in the house. :(

I hope this turns out well for Fred, either his new home working out, or being taken back.

We have fostered 3 dogs: 1 went on to another foster, 2 went to forever homes. We did inspections of the homes and the families. We even called their vets to get a reference. And we have done follow visits too.

The transports we have been involved with, were taking the pets to foster homes. A couple of the transports, we were first leg picking up the dogs as an owner surrender.

Oh wow! What a cutie! I really hope he gets better care than he is thought to get too! He deserves (all doggies do) much better care and a warm home to live in, I'm with you Mugsy, I hope the rescue groups follow through with their job!

Fred is so adorable! :D

Fingers crossed that he gets to be an indoor doggie.
