Ensuring the new owner is correct

Make sure any potential new owners are comfortable with you asking them a lot of questions about their lifestyle, home, exercise levels, and understanding of the breed. Ascertain that the new owners will not abandon the dog/puppy for long periods of time and are aware of the expenditures associated with caring for one. Try to match the dog/puppy to the owners based on their lifestyle description.

The dog/puppy wellbeing is critical 

Whoever you choose, the dog's/puppy’s health and well-being are vital; ensure that potential owners are well informed about your dog's/puppy’s behaviour, health, and history.

Examine how the individual interacts with the dog/puppy and how engaged they appear; do they ask the appropriate questions? If not, you might want to try finding a different person to adopt the dog/puppy.

Pass on the paperwork

Ensure that any paperwork, veterinarian information and medical history, is passed onto the new owners.

Are you happy with the new owner?

Just because someone looks at your dog/puppy doesn't mean you have to give it to them; if you don't feel the individual is the right person, simply say no. It demonstrates that your first interest is for your dog's/puppy’s well-being.

If you are having doubts

If your dog has major behavioural issues, it's advisable to avoid advertising and instead seek training guidance from a rescue centre. If you do decide to advertise on Loot, please make sure your description is factual and that any difficulties, particularly those involving hostility, are described in detail.
