no, ed, it does NOT need to be changed. apparently, you've not involved
yourself with rescue or you would know why an adoption application would be
turned down if the dog were to be an "outside" dog. rescues are not your
sweet little just-came-from-a-great-home-with-no-issues dogs. at best, they
have been abandoned. at worst, they are dogs who have suffered sometimes
brutal abuse at the hands of their "owners." in other words, they are
"special needs" and those needs come FIRST, LAST and everything in between.
most rescues demand home visits, have lengthy and detailed applications and
are extremely careful when placing a dog. you keep your dogs as you wish -
that's your choice. personally, i would not sell a puppy or dog to someone
who was going to have the dog live outside and, in all my years of doing
rescue, have NEVER adopted a dog out to such a situation. these dogs need
an immense amount of attention, work and love and many have come from
situations where they were tethered or left outdoors 24/7. no rescue is going
to
knowingly put the dog back into that type of environment.

asked me did she have to keep the bitch inside at night time?.....I asked why
she asked...she stated that she went to GSD Rescue and they refused to let
her adopt a dog because the dog was going to be an OUTSIDE dog?....is
rescue demanding this?...if so it's ridiculous...my dogs ALL live outside with
no problem...where a dog lives should always be up to the owner...if this is
policy it needs to be changed...Ed Hill
