Hi Toni,
In order for us to approve your application, you will need to bring your dog(s) to the vet for neuter surgery since we require all resident dogs to be up to date and fixed prior to adoption no matter the age or sex (if there is a health risk, then we will need written proof from your vet describing why your pet cannot be spayed/neutered). Please let me know when this has been done & we can go from there. If you decide not to get your pet(s) fixed, then we will not be able to approve you to adopt through our organization. All adopters and fosters are required to have their resident dog(s) spayed/neutered and up to date on vaccines before we can approve them to adopt or foster for us.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation to reduce animal overpopulation!
Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.
And my Response
It is too bad that each person is not treated individually, it will be difficult to find a home where that dog will be better treated or loved , I will never believe again that it is difficult to find dogs a home or foster with the thousands of just female dogs on pet finder in minnesota that need homes and I am being turned down. She could be running on two acres with my dog , going to the lake and swimming, running fields. The implication that I am part of the problem of overpopulation of unwanted dogs is apparent , my dog has received conformation titles , prized in field trials under the age of two, his hips are in the top 1% of the over 800 GSPs tested that year, ( remember I am not trying to brag my dog up here but was trying to make a point) he has not been used as a sire even though I have said no to 6 inquires, to over $ 6,000.00 to be responsible, he will only be used if the owner of the female will be also responsible breed and have more than enough deposits on puppies and we BOTH have a say if the breeding should take place or not, he may never sire a litter, just because he is intact does not mean he is being allowed to over populate the earth with GSPs. ( I may have gotten a little dramatic )
