Where do I go to get a dog?
All the rescues near me have big dogs and I want a small dog. I was registered with dogs trust and it timed out before they had any small dogs at all. Add in my other requirements of must be okay with small children, my other dog, and the nearby horses that walk past our garden, and finding a rescue has been really difficult.
I could buy from a breeder, but I don't really want a pure bred. I love the unique weirdos. Like a collie crossed with a dachshund, or a cavalier king charles crossed with a corgi. Usually the ones that aren't bred on purpose. So they aren't listed on kennel club or champdogs.
That leaves me with sites like pets4homes. Which is where you would go to advertise your pups if you had an accidental litter, so that seems to be where the weird crossbreeds are. But I've heard such bad things about the site that I'm wary. Are they actually bad or is it just puppy farms on the websites are bad?
Is there another option I haven't thought of?
