🐾 Rehome a Dog |(Rehomer / Foster Listings)

Sometimes life changes — but a dog still deserves a safe, stable outcome.

PuppyReports™ includes rehomers and fosters because private rehoming is already happening every day — and too often, it happens in the least protected places online.

Our mission is simple:
make private rehoming more transparent, more legitimate, and safer for dogs and families — without turning it into social-media chaos.

Before families choose, they check the PuppyReports™ Card.
And when a dog is being privately rehomed, families still need a place to check what’s real.

Why PuppyReports™ Includes Rehomers & Fosters

Private rehoming is one of the most important — and most vulnerable — parts of the canine ecosystem.

Dogs may need new homes due to:

  • housing changes

  • health or hardship situations

  • life transitions

  • foster placements outside of formal rescues

  • trained adult dogs needing a better match

These dogs still deserve dignity, safety, and clear placement standards.

PuppyReports™ was built to elevate the entire canine ecosystem by making transparency the norm â€” not the exception.

Who Can Use This Page

This page is for:

  • private owners rehoming a personal dog

  • individuals helping a dog find a safe next home

If you are a Breeder or Rescue, please use our Membership pages instead.

How Rehoming Listings Work

✔️ Create a Rehoming Listing
Your listing is published inside our Rehome Directory for public viewing.

✔️ Complete structured disclosures
Families deserve clarity on what is known, what is unknown, and what the dog may need.

✔️ Submit required documentation for legitimacy
Certain documents are required to help reduce scams and misrepresentation.

✔️ Additional documentation may be submitted (optional, but strongly encouraged)
More transparency creates more confidence — especially for adult dogs and trained dogs.

✔️ Listings expire
Rehoming listings are designed for dogs needing placement now. This is not a permanent profile system.

Required for Rehoming Listings (Dogs-First Transparency Standard)

PuppyReports™ rehoming listings are designed to raise the standard for private placement.

To support a safer and more legitimate rehoming process, rehomers and fosters must provide:

  • A rehoming contract

  • Current vaccination documentation (when applicable)

  • A veterinary health assessment (wellness note or vet summary)

  • Structured behavior and temperament disclosures

These requirements exist to protect dogs, reduce scams, and help families make informed decisions.

Strongly Recommended Transparency (Build Confidence Fast)

Rehomers and fosters are encouraged to submit additional documentation when available, such as:

  • spay/neuter status documentation

  • microchip details

  • training records (especially for working/trained dogs)

  • known medical needs or care instructions

  • diet and routine notes

  • foster observations and adjustment notes

Dogs do not need to have a “perfect” history to be placed ethically.
But families deserve honesty, clarity, and good-faith transparency.

Important Safety Expectations (Scam Prevention & Legit Placement)

PuppyReports™ exists to reduce risk — but families must still use smart placement practices.

We strongly recommend that families:

  • speak by phone and video call before any money changes hands

  • confirm the dog shown in the listing matches the real dog during a live call

  • meet in person whenever possible before final placement

  • request documentation directly when training, health, or discipline claims are listed

If a listing claims specialized training, certifications, or working disciplines, families should ask for supporting documentation and confirm details directly.

Transparency is how everyone stays protected.
