I'll say the same thing to you that I say to everyone who decides that a new home is the best option for their pets - the best home is the one they are already in.
A - that just takes some work and adjustment for you and the dogs
B - that's a training issue
C - fix the fence, put up zip lines or don't leave them unattended
I'm sorry if I come off as rude, but quite frankly, with the number of "great dogs" that are looking for homes because they don't have one in the first place (Erin's fosters, Kristina's fosters, Sepple, Daisy) adding more dogs to the "need new homes" list because they aren't convenient anymore just gets under my skin.
Are there very valid reasons for rehoming pets? Yes, of course. Arrival of new baby and/or bad behavior aren't generally on that list.
And to answer your question - I know of no rescues that have openings at all at this point, and I only know of a couple that take owner turn ins, and they are always full.

I don't know the whole story either, but I don't think this was a decision they came to without much thought. I personally feel badly that they find themselves having to make this decision. I think they deserve a little more compassion than has been displayed.

I would much rather help solve the problems than spend the equal amount of time and energy finding new homes for dogs.

Unsolicited? You asked for help placing your dogs on a discussion forum. That topic is now being discussed.
