    I know of a guy that went to a shelter for a dog, and they refused because he works with animals, in a farm. And they just hated him for it, excusing the refusal in “he is just going to use the dog as a dog guard”, when this is not true at all, he already had a dog who is incredibly well treated and loved. But this shelter just hated farms, even this traditional farm which consisted in a 2-3 cows in a natural pasture, and refused to give this guy a dog.

    I don’t know what’s going on with shelters.

      That sounds like an issue with the employee(s) at one specific shelter. Surely that’s not a systemic issue.
