one of the many listers who e-mailed me privately said it better than 
me......a good home is a good home...I will add this....a bad home is a bad 
home....it makes no difference where the dog lives...if you want your dogs 
inside, God bless you....my dogs live outside,...I disagree with the rescue 
policy, but I still respect what they do...I wish all dogs had great 
homes.....the reality is that they don't...Ed Hill

Ed....that is my point.....we CANNOT control adults when we place a rescue   
dog so we MUST  TRY to control WHERE the dog is going; I can usually  tell 
immediately upon a phone conversation if there is a chance that person will   
get a rescue;  POINT -- We had a wonderful home lined up for a young rescue 
 (under a year), some medical issue that they were willing to assume; they 
came  to visit once and I ask them to bring their other house dog with them 
for a  "meet and greet" after I did the home visit....well this little 
bassett they  brought wanted NOTHING to do with the big puppy; the potential 
  
adopters were heartbroken but totally understood....yes, maybe they could have 
  
worked it out but it is not worth the STRESS to the new owners, or either   
dog...we were all heartbroken but we could not in good faith place this 
puppy  with them.....BUT on the bright side, they fell in love with Weeping 
Willow  sanctuary, the way we run our small rescue and plan to help us with   
fundraising....no hard feelings.  I find that the people with "attitudes"   
about not getting a rescue dog "cheap" or "free" have something  to hide in 
the 
grand scheme of things.  I don't like to feel "sorry" about  things after 
I've done; much rather feel "safe". Our policy will NEVER  change :-)

to a  policy that demands  rescue dogs must 
live inside prevents potential  good owners from  having rescue 
dogs.....trying to control adults is  the worst way of doing it!,  folks 
that understand 
this have less  stressful  lives....
