You can put a dog up for adoption on pet adoption sites, such as Rehome, which provides a platform to connect with a wide pool of potential adopters. You could surrender your dog to a rescue or shelter, but many responsible pet owners look for ways to find a new home for their dog in a manner that allows them to make a decision about who adopts the pet.

Putting dog up for adoption

If you’ve come to a decision that rehoming your pet is the right thing to do, it’s important to take the time to choose a home where your dog will be safe and happy.

Taking the time to find the right home 

Committing the time and energy to find a new home for your pet is best for your dog. Getting your pet in front of as many people as possible is the key to garnering a lot of interest in your dog, and the website Rehome helps you do just that.

You’ll be able to create a detailed profile of your dog, and anyone interested in the pet can submit an application right through the site. Rehome provides detailed guidance about what to look for in potential adopters, so you’ll have confidence in your decision.

What if I don’t want to find a home myself?

If you don’t want or cannot take the time to find the perfect home for your dog, there are other options, including surrendering the dog to a shelter or finding a rescue that is willing to take the dog. Locating an organization that has the space and resources to find your dog a good home is the better choice. That’s because some shelters still euthanize for space, while rescues keep the dog for as long as it takes to find a new home.

If you must put your dog up for adoption, there are resources to help you find a home where your dog will be happy so you can have peace of mind that you did the right thing by your pet.  

A safe, reliable way to rehome your pet
