Found A Home! Summary for 2004

Remember that DDEAF is not a rescue. Our adoption pages are there to help those who wish to adopt a deaf dog to find those who have a deaf dog needing a home.

During 2004, there were 288 dogs who found homes while listed on our adoption pages. The average amount of time that we had them listed was 16 weeks (remember that some dogs were looking for homes before we knew about them, and sometimes people are not prompt at letting us know that the dog is no longer looking, this number is how long we had them listed).

The average for 2004 is larger than for 2003 because 30 dogs were placed that had been listed for 9 months or longer. Still, 2/3 of the dogs were placed in 3 months or less. The breakdown by breed follows, with the average times for any breed with more than 10 placements.
