Meant to start this yesterday being the first of Feb. However: Lets make this think positive and put the word around for a new Forever Home for our BARON, the best possible home please. His time has more than come and he deserves a wonderful family or even just a one person but they must be very very special. COME ON PEEPS !!!! Think Baron Think Baron Think Baron ....................... http://www.dobermannrehome.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=5843.0

maybe an update on his detail page would be good?
i know its terrible that hes been in kennels for so long and we know his story BUT a new visitor to the site may take one look and think ahhh he looks nice oh hang on a minute hes been in kennels how long? MUST be something far wrong with that one AVOID AVOID AVOID!
he deserves a fighting chance! perhaps we could get him put on the old dobermannwelfare site? (now FONDS) or Dogsey they have a rehoming section? rescue rememdies advertise all the time on there
thoughts?

Not sure if he's lost his plums actually  I agree that it may put some people off when they see how long he's been waiting for a home  but on the other hand, if they took the time to read his entire thread, they'd be able to see why and how far he's come. Something they'd need to know all about if considering him. Would be nice to keep him fresh in people's minds with some updated pics though  I can feel some poster printing and distributing coming on.............  Lorraine used to stick posters to the inside of the car windows. looked really effective and for anyone going to shows or doggie events, they'd be seen by many

is this due to confidence issues?
T - i take your point but how many people (who could potentially be a home for him) are put off at the first hurdle. from what i gather hes not 'that' dog anymore? yes he still needs a special home but perhaps by changing the front page (ie before people sign up to the forum) to encourage them to do so
i think with the landing page of the site being out of date that could also put some people off from clicking through
front page showing download for 2010 show they go to barons page last updated end of 2009 - 'hes prob been rehomed by now?
i just think theres little things that could help increase 'click through' and therefore exposure?

When I first found this fantastic website I saw Baron and my thoughts were same as you 'Tunya2'.......that must be out of date......that dog MUST be re-homed by now!! Alas he wasn't and still isn't.... I think who ever does the Baron web page ought to renew with some up to date photos and do a 'revamp' for him. Good Luck Baron x

Really good point ladies, I never really look at the rehoming section as go straight to forum but as you've said that's the first place potential new owners would probably look. A refresh on the lovely lad could only help  Thankfully he is a different dog altogether now and so perhaps we can hook people with the current Baron and then hope they'll read his thread and learn all about him.

I agree an update is long overdue as he isn't the same dog now and when/if I go to the Dobes needing homes page I can't believe he's still at the top of the page  It would be really nice for us all to see some recent piccies and an totally fresh page on him

When I joined up I was very interested in baron but with me already have a male dog i didn't enquire None of his past would put me off and if I didn't already have Rossi he could have come and lived with bella
