Statistics

The Lost Dogs' Home is a registered domestic animal business and is therefore required to operate under a totally enforceable Code of Practice for the Management of Cats and Dogs in Pounds and Shelters.

Under this Code there is a clause regarding the Rehousing of Animals. It is Clause 2.3.7 REHOUSING (SALE OF ANIMALS) - "All animals sold from a pound or shelter must be wormed, desexed and vaccinated. 

Sick,aggressive,pregnant,unweaned,anti-social or deformed animals,or animals with known vices such as excessive barking,fence jumping(dogs) must not be made available for sale."

The Lost Dogs’ Home Shelter figures below incorporate two separate statistics, all incoming animals for a month are represented as ‘Admissions’ and all outgoing results for a month are represented as ‘Adoptions’, ‘Reclaims’ and ‘Euthanasias’. The total ‘Admissions’ will not tally with the combined total of ‘Adoptions’, ‘Reclaims’ and ‘Euthanasias’ figures as the ‘Outgoing’ figures will include animals from the previous month and the ‘Incoming’ figures will include dogs and cats whose impoundment period will not finish until the following month.

Should you have any questions regarding our Shelter figures please do not hesitate to contact us at infoatdogshome [dot] com.
