Totally unreal policy. At the beginning it was said that the dog could be home alone for a maximum of 5-6 hours (This was still to be done as a cohabiting couple of which 1 is studying and 1 is working full time). But in the end the dog may seem to be home alone for a maximum of 4 hours. This is almost impossible in today's society. This means that there are enough dogs that need a home, even too many, and only people who do not work because of an illness / disability, are unemployed or are on board who can adopt dogs.

I understand you don't want the dog to be sent back because it is disturbing the neighbors or demolishing your house for boredom, but in the case of a young couple with a house full of toys, a playmate and full evenings after those 6 hours being alone this is very unjustified. we went through the entire adoption procedure, approved the questionnaire both online and by telephone, and had a super house visit where everything was excellent, while we are waiting for the contract to be able to embrace our missing puzzle piece with the message that it is all impossible. Because the board fills out for us that we would bring her back because she was going to demolish or bark out of boredom, while having a dog with the same problems as the dog we wanted to adopt. We think it is very unfortunate that these people do not look at each situation separately, but that everything is generalized. We and our family are now going through deep sorrow as we already have all the things including special pieces (she no longer has teeth) and a necklace with a name for her in the house. They do not believe that a dog of 2.5 years can learn, even though the dog is obedient.

They do not look at what you can mean for a dog, but at that one point where you might fall short. we had lovingly given her a forever home full of love, family and attention, but at the last minute they still let you down nicely. All in all a terrible experience, unrealistic policy for today's society and unfriendly employees on the phone who refuse to look at your personal situation. I really do not recommend anyone to work with these people, the dogs certainly deserve it, but unfortunately the welfare of the dog is not paramount here. they would rather let them rot in Spain.
