Beautiful Bella found herself at Foal Farm after her owner sadly passed away. She had lived a quiet life previously and was not walked often so has been used to being isolated from the real world. Bella was sadly in the property for a few days alone and when there were people trying to help her she would run and hide.Coming into kennels has been a huge upheaval for Bella considering she has lived an isolated life. She has settled in well and has formed some lovely bonds with volunteers and staff. She can be shy around men at first but she does soon come around. She is more confident with women and once she knows you she is a very affectionate girl.Bella will need a patient family who will understand that she may be anxious and unsettled initially in a new home, as this will be such a huge change for her, and change is not something Bella has ever had to get used to before.Although Bella has not been socialised she did assess well with other dogs as long as they are calm around her, she has the potential to live with a calm male. We will consider homes with older children who are used to anxious dogs. We are sure that once Bella has the right family by her side to guide her through her worries, she will blossom. Bella does require time, patience and further training but we believe she is worth the extra effort! You will gain an incredibly loving companion in Bella.

​Here’s a note from Boyo's fosterer:“Two months ago, I started fostering this handsome boy; like many rescue dogs, he needed time to decompress, feel safe and learn that a home could be a place of comfort rather than uncertainty. Boyo had been in kennels for 3 months and I'll admit the first couple of weeks weren't the easiest but, wow, what a change now he's used to a home environment. Yes he has a past where things haven't worked out well, but don't we all!The transformation has been incredible to watch. As he's become comfortable with home life, Boyo's true personality has emerged, and it's impossible not to fall in love with him. He isn't a high-energy dog demanding constant walks or endless entertainment. In fact, he's remarkably low maintenance and happiest when he's curled up beside you on the sofa, enjoying cuddles and companionship.He's actually a gentle soul who loves routine, being close to his people and is content just being part of everyday life. Whether you're watching television, reading a book or working from home, he'll happily settle down next to you and simply enjoy being by your side. He doesn't ask for much, just companionship, affection and a place where he feels safe.He's also a very intelligent boy who learns quickly and genuinely wants to be a "good boy". He thrives on praise and takes direction well (treats always help!). Watching Boyo's confidence grow over the last two months has been incredibly rewarding.When visitors arrive, he can sometimes get a little excited at first, but once he's said hello and the initial excitement has passed, he soon settles back down and relaxes.Because he forms such strong bonds, he does experience some separation anxiety. This means any time spent alone will need to be introduced gradually and built up slowly, allowing him to gain confidence and feel secure. With patience and consistency, he's already shown just how adaptable and trusting he can be.What Boyo wants more than anything now is a place to finally call his own. After everything he's achieved in the last two months, he deserves the love, security and stability of a forever home. He has done the hard work, shown how wonderfully he can adapt to home life, and now he's ready to start his next chapter with a family of his own.I've seen just how much progress he's made, how much love he has to give and how desperately he wants to belong to someone. This wonderful boy deserves a place where he can finally put down roots, feel secure and know that the people he loves aren't going anywhere.”

She’s full of playful energy, a true bouncy bundle of joy who’s always ready for a cuddle or a zoom around the garden. Cara is a homebody at her core. She absolutely adores her home comforts and can often be found lazing on the sofa. She has no idea how big she is – she’s very much a “chihuahua in a mastiff’s body”, convinced she’s a lap dog and happiest when soaking up all the cuddles she can get! Cara is incredibly affectionate with the people she knows and trusts, but she can be wary of unfamiliar people, particularly men. She needs slow, positive introductions on her terms, outside the home with plenty of tasty treats (hot dogs are a favourite!). It’s really important that people are respectful of her boundaries. Because of this, she’s looking for a calm and understanding home with older children aged 15+ who can appreciate when she needs space and allow her to build relationships at her own pace. When it comes to training, Cara is a bright spark. She responds well to positive reinforcement and enjoys learning, especially when food is involved. She’ll need adopters who are committed to continuing her training and helping her manage new or challenging situations. Cara also has a wonderfully goofy, energetic side. She loves nothing more than running around like the clown she is, and trips to secure fields where she can stretch her legs and let off steam are an absolute must for her. Cara is friendly with other dogs on walks and enjoys parallel walks with canine companions. While she loves human attention and affection, she could happily share her home with another dog who matches her energy and complements her personality. Cara’s Ideal Home: • A calm household with older children aged 15+ • A quiet environment with minimal visitors • Access to secure fields for regular off-lead zoomies • A comfy sofa and plenty of home comforts • Cara could live with another dog who matches her energy • A family committed to giving her the time, structure, and love she needs to thrive Cara is looking for a special family who will give her the time, structure, and love she needs to feel secure.
