Dog adopters are easily frustrated these days by not hearing back from rescues.
Who can blame them?
Rescues used to respond to most applicants even if they were not a match
Dog adoption applications are more time consuming and arduous than they were
They’re emotionally invested in the outcome and often don’t have any perspective on the number of potential dog adopters interested
The dog adoption criteria set by rescues has become much more extensive causing people to be easily discarded/out of the running - in the process
However, there are some common mistakes that people are making when applying that can really affect your chances of being approved or moving onto the next part of the process.
Here are three of the most common dog adoption application blunders I see dog adopters making:
1. Applying for incompatible dogs
2. A lack of effort in their application
3. Poor explanation about previous pets
Listen to the podcast for more details on each one.
