From our first visit to dogs trust darlington to see some of the dogs they have there till collecting the puppy we chose from them the service has been absolutely fantastic. Friendly and helpful staff, well cared for dogs and a clean spacious location. For anyone thinking of getting a rescue pet I would highly recommend using them.

I am trying to rehome my staffy

I am trying to rehome my staffy. I got in touch with dogs trust as the look reputable and would thought they would be a massive help. I was wrong. They came out to evaluate my dog and because of his “high energy levels” and boisterous behaviour they can’t help him. Which is pathetic. So pretty much if your dog isnt a lap dog and slouches about all day they dont want to try. The whole process was a waste of time. They dont care. They just want to make a nice sweet instagram/facebook post and pick and choose which dogs they are willing to help.

To me this “charity” is woeful.

Do not reccomend them at all.

Good morning,

Thank you for taking the time to get in touch.

We are sorry to hear that we were not in a position to take your dog into our care. We do our best to help wherever we can when we are approached by someone in the unfortunate position of needing to rehome their dog.

These decisions are made by the staff members at our individual rehoming centres and are always made on a case by case basis. We would need to balance considering if a dog could be safely handled by staff, and whether our behavioural team would be able to make a significant difference to their any behavioural challenges to get them to a point where we would feel that the dog was suitable for rehoming, even if it would be a very specific type of home that we would be looking to place them in.

While we are lucky enough to have specialist facilities at some of our rehoming centres, who can work with some of the more challenging behaviours that a dog could exhibit, we do need to also consider how many dogs with behavioural concerns are currently in our care verses the amount of trained behavioural staff we have available to work with them - looking at if we can provide for this dogs’ needs, as well as thinking about the safety of our staff.

As a member of the Association of Dogs and Cats Homes, we must take steps to ensure that all animals in our care have a high level of welfare. Bringing a dog into our care whose welfare would be compromised by doing so, or taking in more dogs with complex behaviours than we have qualified staff to handle them, would violate the guidelines which we are duty bound to abide by.

We are sorry that your experience has not met your expectations, and we appreciate you raising your concerns. If you would like to discuss your experience or provide further information about your current circumstances, you are welcome to contact our Feedback and Complaints Team via email at letusknow@dogstrust.org.uk or through our website at dogstrust.org.uk/letusknow.

Kind regards,
Holly

Excellent support from registration to adoption and beyond.

Excellent, well-informed and professional staff who supported us through the adoption process from registration to adoption. Because we already have another dog (previous Dogs Trust adoptee) we needed to ensure old and new dog would be compatible so we fostered for a week before adoption. The staff went the extra distance to ensure adoption would be a success from the perspective of both dogs; so much so that after only 3 days in foster care, we knew our new boy was in his forever home. Dogs Trust are the only people I would recommend - their support is second to none. I am biased as I have adopted 5 dogs previously before this one and knew I could trust them to help me find the right match.

Recent rehome of older dog.

They arranged 2 meets with my dog before I made the decision to rehome her. I was given lots of information and advice on how to settle the dog in and there is ongoing support too, particularly to help with any behaviour problems.

From the moment we first went to Dogs Trust you can see how well loved and cared for the dogs are. All the staff and volunteers do such a wonderful job.

We applied to adopt a dog

We applied to adopt a dog, and within a few days we were contacted. Unfortunately missed the call and the dog was offered to another family
During the process the other family decided he wasn't the right dog for them, so we were contacted again.

The process was smooth and obviously well established. We visited the first time for an initial meet, and took the pup for a walk around the field. We weren't asked to take control of the dog, which I think would have been a good opportunity for us to get to know him.
We visited the second time a few days later, and brought him home that same day.

The staff were all very friendly and helpful, and their passion for the animals shone through.

They followed up after two days, and the behaviour helpline were able to give some advice around cat reactivity.

Overall a good service, and centred around the animals, as it should be.

Perfect Rehoming

The staff at the Evesham branch were incredible, very accommodating! The entire adoption process was quick and smooth sailing right from our initial enquiry, the pre-adoption 1-on-1s were very handy in regards to meeting the expectations of Marley. He has settled in nicely, and I would highly recommend the Evesham branch to anyone looking to rehome a dog in the future.

Easy to adopt

Applied to adopt was actually rung back. The staff and premises were lovely, I went to Bridgend the wanted us to meet the dog twice and were really accommodating on times so that we just stayed the night and met the dog again next morning.

Process was really easy, had lots of support throughout and it's ongoing.

Wouldn't hesitate to use Dogs Trust again if I wanted another dog.

We adopted Bear and he's slotted right in to the family.

Best experience <3

We applied to rescue a dog via the dogs trust website, to which a couple of weeks later we received a phone call that had matched us with a puppy.

Ernie is honestly the most perfect dog for us, and the team at Dogs Trust Cardiff matched us perfectly. The support that was offered before the adoption, and post adoption - has been incredible.

The frequent first meets before adopting were also good, and we liked that we were able to go for a walk rather than just playing with him in a contained environment. The little goodie bag on adoption day is also fab, and had everything that we would need for the first couple of days.

As a couple who work full time, we were unsure about the possibility of being able to rescue a puppy - however, Dogs Trust viewed us as being suitable, and matched us with a dog who really fits our lifestyle.

Exceptional experience

Me and partner adopted Hilda from dogs trust Kenilworth and the staff there was amazing. As we are first time dog parents they were so patient with us when having behaviour sessions. Haven’t got one bad thing to say, despite the on going works to their shelter, they still ran everything so smoothly. They look after the dogs exceptionally well and you can tell every single staff who works there enjoys their job and loves what they do. Couldn’t recommend them enough if you are looking to give a dog their forever home.

Poor adoption process

Been looking to adopt a dog from them for ages they keep telling me I have an application but they are doing nothing with it. Keeping dogs in the kennels and not even contacting me about adopting one. I keep contacting them but no use.

Good morning Charlie,

Thank you for your review, although we are so sorry to hear that you have found your experience applying to adopt so disheartening.

We changed our rehoming process in November 2023 from an application for a specific dog to a general application, as we found that some dogs were receiving hundreds of applications whilst other lovely dogs weren't receiving any.

Our rehoming team regularly review your application in the background, looking closely at the details you provided about your home, lifestyle and preferences, alongside each dog's behaviours, needs and requirements. Every dog has different requirements, so we look at everything on a case-by-case basis, and the team take time to check potential matches thoroughly.

We are currently working through a large volume of applications, so while each application is reviewed frequently, the team aren’t able to reach out unless they’ve identified a dog they feel could be suitable.

We keep every application open for three months. Many people find a match sooner, but it does depend on each person’s circumstances and preferences, and the kinds of dogs coming into our care. Sometimes it can be quick; for others, it may take several weeks or, occasionally, a little longer. If we haven’t been able to make a match within the three-month period, we’ll contact you to invite you to reapply so we can keep your details up to date.

Our Training & Behaviour teams work extremely hard to get to know each dog and their requirements and work with them whilst they are in our care, so we ultimately trust them to make the best decisions possible.

If you would like to discuss your feedback further, we would ask that you kindly provide more details of your experience by contacting our Feedback and Complaints Team via email at letusknow@dogstrust.org.uk or by visiting our website at dogstrust.org.uk/letusknow

Once again, we thank you for taking the time to leave this review.

The staff at Dogs Trust made the adoption very simple plenty of advice on what the first few days for a dog in new surroundings may be like and what we should look out for but for us all when well and Lasy settled in from day one,this was the second dog we have rescued from the Dogs Trust and we would recommend it if you feel you want to own a dog.
