4 If you want a puppy how will you deal with the work involved i.e. toilet training, chewing, mouthing - those sharp teeth - jumping up, going to puppy classes?

5. How will you cope with all these issues if you have children (how old are your children?)?

6. A dog is not just for the children so why do the parents want the puppy and how will you provide the constant supervision and boundaries needed?

7 Have you considered that a dog or a puppy cannot immediately be taken to a dog park or cafe and need to slowly understand all the new sights, sounds, people, dogs, etc of their new environment?

14 We cannot provide any more information about the eventual size or breed of the dog. Have you considered this?

15 If you are offered a meet and greet and it is felt by all that the dog or pup is a good fit for your family, we expect you to be ready to take the dog home/adopt at the time.

From what date do you want to adopt?

We cannot hold dogs as space in foster care is needed for other dogs.

Thank you
