How to start a at home dog rescue???

Q. Hello,I am Stacy.

I am interested in starting a at home rottie rescue or a pit rescue something like that.I was wondering how to go about this? so if you have a lot of property do you get a lot of large outside kennels and supply and things dogs need and start rescuing rotties??? I really don't get it? ID LOVE TO RESCUE ROTTIES i just don't know how. can you give me the 411 on starting your own at home dog rescue or kennel? I mean from top to bottom EVERY DETAIL! Thank you SOOO much! I really would like to help bully breeds and just give back to are furry friends. Thank you.


Answer
Are there any existing rescues in your area? They ALWAYS need people to keep the dogs, and will give you guidance along the way. And they will have a system in place (hopefully!) to help find the dogs homes, which is the best part of fostering.

A good rescue will give you all the guidance that you need. Good luck!

Stories about dogs escaping kennels?

Let's hear your stories about your dog(s) that have escape for crates or kennels at home...


Answer
A Basenji I transported for Rescue could escape wire & fiberglass crates. He'd bend the wires, eat out the floor tray-- and in a fiberglass crate he'd just chew a big hole through them. Luckily he wasn't destructive in the house.

One of my Basenjis can climb- I put her in a 7 foot tall outdoor kennel for the day & looked back to see her halfway up the side, climbing. I quick grabbed her & put her in one with a roof on it.

That kept HER in, but I have heard a story from a Basenji breeder who got one of the new African imports when the AKC opened the stud book in '89 and allowed native Basenjis to be imported from Africa. This dog apparently was able to not only climb, but SQUEEZE herself through the 4-5 inch gap between the top of the kennel and the roof. When the roof was reinforced with wire, she figured out how to un-do the latch on the gate. I think finally adding a clip to the latch to 'lock' it kept her in for good.

A while back I worked at an animal hospital. Somebody boarded 2 Mastiffs for several days. One night, they got out by chewing a hole through the chain link kennel....they chewed and bent the wire back- a hole big enough for a 185 lb dog to squeeze through. They proceeded to wreak havoc on the kennel area. Ate an entire bag of dog food, chewed the container it was kept in (rendering it useless) and left several monster-sized poops throughout the area. Clawed at the doors, leaving huge gouge marks. Chewed on the swinging door leading into surgery. Luckily there wasn't anything in surgery they could get into. Tore up some towels. Got into the kitty litter. Vet politely asked owners to pay extra for damages & banned them from boarding their dogs there again. LOL.
