When I received a kidney/pancreas transplant, I was told for the first month not to spend a lot of time in public places (for examples, I avoided or limited my time in malls, grocery stores, church, etc). After that, my instructions were to get out and live a normal life, with common sense (like if someone nearby is coughing their head off – move away).
My transplant was almost 5 years ago, and I can tell you that I have honestly not had any more infections/colds etc than I did before.
Rejection is more most common during the first 3 to 4 months after the transplant; most episodes of rejection are reversible. The patients must take the anti-rejection medicine as prescribed as long as they have the transplant. (I have not had any rejection episodes). Kidney recipients are supposed to have frequent bloodwork done in the beginning; usually, that is the only way that rejection can be determined as there are often no symptom.

When screening people for my puppies, here are some of the things I ask (keep in mind, this is for a sheltie puppy, akc registered)
will the puppy be indoor or outdoor
1) do you have kids
2) what are you planning on doing with him/her (couch potatoe, agility, etc)
3) do you have a fenced yard
4) will you commit to training classes (I offer them for free if the people live nearby – I am a former trainer)
5) who is your vet
6)what background do you have with dogs – is this your first (in this case I make sure they are in classes and I check on them regularly)
7) will you agree to a mandatory spay/neuter (on my pet puppies – my show puppies cannot be and still show but that is a whole different set of questions)
9) do you have other pets?
I usually come up with more as I go along. Many times when you get them started, they will tell you most everything without you having to ask. Just talk to them. If something does not feel right, pass them by (politely – you know, I really don't think this is going to be a good match). Do not be afraid to ask for references (vet, groomer, trainer, friends, neighbors, etc) and check them out if you are not sure. Remember – you are responsible to find this little one the perfect new home. Always be ready to take her back if the match just does not work and then try again. I know I would rather they come back to me than go to a pound or rescue or just be tossed on the street. I have a contract that is about 3 pages long and says just that.
Trust your instincts – they are there for a reason. There is a wonderful home out there just waiting for your little one. It is up to you to find them.
