Birmingham Dogs Home

In the Victorian times a nice day out for a family would be to go to a lunatic asylum to look at the patients, wallowing in their own distorted worlds. Thankfully Mankind has moved on since then, but people’s attitude’s towards animals seems to have remained static. Visiting Birmingham dogs home for me is what I imagine to be a similar experience.
Birmingham Dogs Home tries to re home unwanted dogs. Perhaps dogs that were bought as a fashion item, only for the owner to realise that it takes a lot of effort to look after a beautiful animal.
I cried when I walked around to look at the dogs. I thought I would be happy to see lots of beautiful animals, but all I saw was pain, desperation and misery. It is not the fault of the staff, they try their hardest and do a phenomenal job. However in this day and age we should understand that animals have rights and to keep them in a cage is a travesty to the innate beauty of life.

4 stars for the service that Bham Dogs home provides to unwanted pooches. They do a great job and do a hell of a lot for these animals.
If you are thinking of getting a dog then I would recommend and suggest that you go here to help rehome a poor, unwanted mutt. If you are going to Brum dogs home to get a dog then here are a few things to consider…
1) This is dog jail. If you like dogs it will break your heart and can be quite upsetting, so bear this in mind if you are taking kids (or big kids). It also means that it is VERY hard to make a choice, let alone the right choice, because almost every dog you see will give you those sad eyes and you’ll want to take him or her home. So, I’d recommend that you bear the emotional strain in mind before you go and think about what kind of dog you want — this will help you narrow down your search
2) You can take home dogs there and then, but they (quite rightly) have certain checks and measure in place to ensure that you can provide the right environment for the dog. If you live in rented accommodation you will need a letter of consent from your landlord and if you have a garden you will need a 6 foot fence that fully encloses it.
