| I agree with everyone else, even if you contact a rescue and ask them to put her on their waiting lists or try to match her to a home and you will hang onto her in the meantime, some rescues do have fosters, so she would be placed in a home b4 going to a permanent home, as suggested it would be good for any rescue in regard to costs if you neuter and vaccinate her if not done so before she goes. |

most rescues have foster homes have you contacted staffy rescue where atleast they can put her on the their list? You dont say wither you got the wee dog from rescue or a breeder, if you got her from a reputable breeder you would have signed a contract stating the pup/dog be returned at any time back to the breeder Also if shes not been neutered before rehoming its best she's done before so that way she wont be used as a breeding machine. Even if your rehoming her yourself you could contact staffy rescue & get help with vetting homes etc. If you rehome her yourself & the home dosnt work out ...what happens? |

| if i was n thinking what was best for the dog i wouldn be here and i wouldn be trying to rehome her , yes you have valid points in some aspects and its been hard on the whole family not just the dog i live in rural staffordshire there are little or no rescues in my vacinity and the ones that are are run from peoples homes while the rspca will take her she would be kenneled and i dont no what there polices are on rehoming and lets face it ppl rehoming staffys from rescues are few and far between thats partly the reason why theres so many there i may take that option when im left whith no alternative but i will try and rehome her myself first i owe her that at least turning round and dumping her in rescue kennels is the easy way out of a bad situation and far from responsible |

Its hard to give up a pet kelle but in your situation its best for the wee dog to be signed over to rescue where they will do homechecks etc especially when you say your son is treating her bad. Or are you going to wait before he really pushes his luck with her & she bites him etc, your not doing the dog any favours by keeping her in a situation thats clearly not suitable for her. As well as the dog trust theres staffy rescue...contact them & explain the situation that the dog is at risk at the hands of your son ...she shouldnt be made to put up with the treatment you say your son is dishing out to her & its only matter of time before she defends herself & would hate to see her killed cos of your son & that would be another nail in the coffin for staffys as the breed has always been given a bad name. You need to start thinking whats best for this dog |

if your son is treating her badly then its not fair to expect her to keep putting up with it. i agree with the other poster. your best bet is the dogs trust. it gets her out of a miserable situation, leaving you free to manage with your rather full plate and she will find a lovely home. i've adopted from the dogs trust before and you really have to jump through hoops and show a dedication to your chosen dog before you are allowed to adopt. |

Hi, If you contact your local Dogs Trust and let them no you have a very friendly staffy female which you cant keep anymore due to your other dog being male and picking on her they should put you on their waiting list and then ring you when they have space to rehome her. I guarantee, they are fab and will vet everyone wanting her. Good Luck!! I love Staffys!! |
