The Rehoming Process
To those who may be facing the unthinkable…
Nobody ever brings a dog into their life imagining that one day they might have to say goodbye. But sometimes life takes turns we never planned for; illness, loss, financial hardship, relationship breakdowns and suddenly, incredibly tough decisions have to be made..
At Lincs, we understand that rehoming your dog doesn’t come from a place of not caring; it comes from love, responsibility, and doing what’s best for your dog in difficult circumstances. Our promise to anyone who reaches out to us is simple: compassion, professionalism, and a non-judgmental approach.
While we can’t always accept every dog, we assess each case individually and will always do our utmost to help. If you do need to explore surrendering your dog, the first step is to complete a rehoming request form. Please give us as much information as you can; the more we know, the better we can help. Don’t forget to include your photo ID so we can verify your identity in line with our lone working policy.
Once we receive your request, our team carefully reviews everything you’ve shared. If we’re able to help, we’ll be in touch to ask for any further details needed to move forward. Every dog we take in is assessed in their current home to help us understand their needs and ensure we can find them the right future.
Throughout this process, communication is key. We’re a small, friendly team, and we’ll support you every step of the way with kindness and understanding.
Your privacy matters to us, all surrender details are confidential. While we can’t share information about new families, we’re always happy to provide a gentle update on how your dog is settling in, if and when you’re ready.
If you’ve made the heart breaking decision to rehome your Dobermann, please know that you can trust Lincs to handle it with care, compassion, and respect for both you and your dog.
