SUMMARY:When Rehoming gets tough\, how can we maximise opportunities for dogs
DESCRIPTION:Join Jake Flatman\, Head of Rehoming Operations – South West\, Dogs Trust for this insightful 2 hour members only webinar. \nIn a challenging rehoming landscape\, this workshop will explore innovative ways to maximise opportunities for rehoming dogs. Participants will be encouraged to think beyond traditional criteria\, considering how thoughtful flexibility and bold decision-making can open doors to homes that may otherwise be overlooked. \nThrough collaborative discussion and real-life scenarios\, we will examine where calculated risks can lead to better outcomes\, while maintaining dog welfare at the core. This session is designed to challenge assumptions\, spark new ideas\, and empower attendees to make a greater\, more meaningful impact on rehoming outcomes. \nThis event is open to ADCH Members and invited Supporters. \nAttendance is free of charge. \nRegistration is required in advance.
