Changing situations consist of leaving a family home for shelter or momentary accommodation or transferring to a leasing home where property managers do not allow animals.
Today we are highlighting Sadie, a Labrador cross who at 11 is dealing with a brand-new start in life due to her family being struck by a housing crisis. Unable to take her with them into accommodation, she was handed unwillingly to Rehoming Cork Pets who are looking for a home for her.
But similar to lots of elderly dogs, they are seldom leading of the dream list for lots of trying to find a family pet – and to date she has actually not had a single query.
A representative for the charity said: “This is heart breaking. Sadie requires a brand-new home. She is unwillingly being rehomed due to the housing crisis. She’s 11 years of ages and like a fully grown white wine, she has actually improved with age.
“She’s well taken a trip and well acted and good on the lead. And she is completely house-trained, purified, immunized and microchipped. Someone someplace needs to have a space in their heart and home for Sadie, so email us for an adoption form – [email protected].”
The charity says Sadie might live with another dog and in a family with kids.
