If you are thinking about adopting a dog that is a cross breed, or already have one, it is always a good idea to know what breeds are involved, as this will give you information, and knowledge as to what other breeds will suit, common behaviour and health problems. Very easy to do and can be done in the comfort of your own home. www.muttmix.co.za

"Meet Your Match"
Questionnaire
Meet your Match - Questionnaire for helping to match dogs and new owners - this can be used by potential new owners and also by shelters/rescue centres, to help to match dog and new owner. Please just scroll if you decide to complete online - do not click Enter
For new owners, just print this .out and take with you to the shelter of your choice - this will help them to see which dogs would be the best choice for you and also for you to clarify for yourself the type of dog for.
This is such an important part of the process - it can immediately help to see which dogs would be the best fit for you, clarify your own thoughts and also highlight any possible areas of concerns. For example think about a Collie cross going to a home where very little exercise will be done. It is not just important to find a dog a home - we need to find it the 'right' home - a home with the best chance of success. If we dont then the dog may be handed over to somebody else or returned, which is what we want to avoid at all costs as the stress levels for this particular dog will go sky high.
Here is a list of questions that we consider important and will help to find the right dog for you and your family as the shelter will have in-depth knowledge about the dogs they have in their care.
