Can I rehome an animal if I have children?

Yes, you can. Rescued animals arrive in our care for many reasons and sometimes we don’t know their full history. When we assess our animals, we take into consideration any information we may receive on arrival and their behaviour with us to determine the age of children we feel they would be suitable to live with.

Not all of our animals will suit living in families with children and usually if animals (dogs in particular) are large, strong and boisterous we will recommend they are not rehomed with young children, just to be on the safe side.

Every year we rehome lots of animals to families with children but if the animal you are interested in is not suitable to do so, our team will be delighted to help to find the right animal for you and your family.
