Just Look at that face!Angel is currently staying with a wonderful fosterer in a home boarding environment (Gloucester area) and to say she’s a dream dog is an understatement. At just 8 months old, Angel is already incredibly clever. She’s the kind of puppy who watches you closely, tilts her head when you speak, and tries her absolute best to understand you. But her real superpower is her emotional intelligence. Angel has completely transformed the energy around the other dogs. If a dog comes in scared, unsure, or shut down, Angel steps in as a comfort blanket. She helps them feel safe, teaches them how to play, and encourages them to venture out. She is a natural healer at such a young age.She loves companionship and would thrive in an active home with another dog to guide her and keep her company. She can be a little unsure when meeting new humans at first, but once those treats appear, she thinks you are the greatest thing on earthAll Angels siblings have found their happy endings, and now it’s Angel’s turn.In return for a little patience and a lot of love, she will give you a lifetime of loyalty, laughter, and devotion.We are looking for a rural/semi rural home with a nice secure garden with lawn and a friend for Angel to play with. Someone with the time and patience to help Angel transform into the amazing girl we know she is destined to become. If you think you can meet Angels needs please fill out a registration form and one of our rehoming team will be in touch.

Looking at Annie now, it’s hard to imagine the day she was found. She was wandering alone, desperate for food, literally just skin and bones. She was starving, forgotten, and losing hope until she was found by a friend, who brought her into the safety of her yard. Thankfully Annie’s life changed that day, she now has hope and a chance of a better life.Annie is so ready to find a forever home where “hunger” is a word she never has to understand again. Despite her rough start, she is incredibly social, very sweet and friendly. She currently shares a kennel with 7 other dogs of all sizes and gets along great with them. She is wonderful with Dogs, Cats and children.Annie isn’t just looking for a home, she’s looking for her special once in a life time someone to help her bloom. Her perfect home would be a rural or semi-rural home with a secure garden and plenty of lawn to run on. It would have owners with rescue experience who understand the patience and time it takes for a dog to transition from “survival mode” to “family pet,” with someone home most of the day. Annie needs at least one other friendly dog in the home to play with and, more importantly, to learn from. Older children only, please.Annie needs a special kind of person. Someone with the space, the kindness, and the heart to show this beautiful girl that there is still so much goodness left in the world.

A Letter to Asher’s prospective forever family from his foster mum:Hello, My name is Sharon & I am Asher’s foster mum & I just wanted to share with you what am amazingly gentle, loving, resilient & brave dog Asher is.My hubby & I have had dogs in our lives for a such a long time & we have always chosen to rescue dogs. We have rescued from the UK & Romania & currently have 3 dogs- Ralf, Ed & Cerys. Last year we became foster carers, a role I absolutely adore. Since coming to stay with us last October Asher has just blossomed & is very different from the withdrawn, super anxious & vigilant dog we collected. His progress is very much at his pace which is at a slow speed (one paw at a time) but he has felt safe enough to share his fun-loving side & has started to trust us although but it is our view that this will be a long journey for him.He very much likes familiar surroundings & people & can become a little sensitive especially to unexpected noise; Asher when uncertain or nervous will withdraw. He is not at all aggressive in his nature or behaviour. He is getting used to visitors to our home & when one of my dog-walking friend visits Asher gets so excited he will do a ‘trotting dance’ & whistle.Asher’s greatest loves are our other dogs, being outside, toast & settees He loves being around our dogs & loves being outside doing ‘zoomies’ around our garden with them. He will jump on the bed in the morning with our gang & they will all have a snooze for an extra 15-30 minutes. He recognises the sound of the toaster & will dash from wherever he is to the kitchen; something he has learnt from Ralf. Asher continues to love a settee & is at his most relaxed when he is stretched out. He is no trouble at all to take out for walks. Although he is a little reluctant to have his harness put on, once this has been secured, he then begins to do his little dance showing his excitement. His recall is very good & when he is off the lead in the secure field, he is happy to explore but is also happy to come back when called.Asher is caring & considerate; for example, when we are out walking if I have him on the lead he goes at a slower pace & will periodically wait for me to catch up. When we come back from a rainy walk Asher is more interested in making sure the other dogs are dried off by licking them than being dried off himself. Today Cerys slipped while they were running around, Asher went up to her & licked her face to make sure, she was okay. He is instinctively empathetic. His interaction with dogs & people is very gentle. He is not a barker, Ed is a ‘talker’ & Asher will bark when he does but has never initiated any barking; He prefers to whistle when he gets excited. Cerys is full of issues, but Asher just works around her & is calm & caring in his interactions with her.

Catie was found by us as a tiny puppy. She was adopted, but several months ago, after 5 years in her home, she was surrendered back into our care. She didn’t just come back with a broken heart; she arrived with 26 pages of veterinary history and a heavy cocktail of daily medications, including Prozac. For the last few months, our wonderful team alongside our incredible vet have been slowly, safely, and patiently tapering her off everything. We wanted to see who Catie really was under all that fog. Today, we are overjoyed to tell you that Catie has been completely drug-free for over a month and she is a completely transformed, incredibly happy soul. She is finally rediscovering who she is, one lawn zoomie and tummy rub at a time. Now, she is officially ready to find the “one-in-a-million” angel who will give her the quiet, beautiful life she has fought so hard for.A message from Catie:“Since coming off my medications, my true personality has bloomed. I am so much happier. I absolutely love coming out of my kennel, and I get so excited when I see my harness and lead come out.Right now, the rescue has me on a bit of a diet. I’m carrying a few extra pounds that aren’t good for my joints, and while I am deeply offended by the smaller food portions, I’m handling it like a champ.I’m not a traditional, clingy lap dog, but I am incredibly affectionate once I know you and on my own terms. I love strokes, tummy tickles and absolutely love being brushed (Just stick to my back and sides please, I prefer to leave my tail and trousers alone )Brushing is also my ultimate comfort; if I’m ever struggling to settle, a good brush completely calms me down. I am very good at being clipped, but I like my ears and tail left long. It’s a sensory thing for me, and I like keeping my signature look!

Introducing Handsome Clive. Clive is a cheeky chappie, at only 25kg, a very small sized golden retriever with a hint of spaniel in him.Clive was going to be euthanised on behaviourist recommendation due to his ‘resource guarding’ which resulted in several bites in the home. Upon further assessment of him, we do believe his ‘resource guarding’ is for attention and learned behaviour, not because he sees the item as high value. This type of guarding is workable and with management, we believe it can be stopped altogether. With the correct management in the kennels, the team haven’t had any bite incidents with him. The kennel behaviour team are happy to work with you for as long as needed to continue his training and help with the adjustment back into a home.Clive is great with other dogs and could happily live with another female dog. He has not shown any guarding behaviours towards dogs and shares toys and space with them quite happily. He is great with people & will always get top prize for waggiest tail. He tends to get excited when going out on a walk and can be quite bouncy but does calm down after a little while.Clive has a very cheeky personality and will be that dog to run away with your slipper. He gives the best cuddles, he loves a groom and also weirdly loves the vets too.Clive needs a rural/semi rural home with a nice secure garden with lawn to do zoomies, an experienced owner with resource guarding experience and someone who is willing to put in the time to help Clive. He cannot live with children under the age of 18.Guaranteed to take your breath away he truly is extremely handsome. If Clive’s stunning looks have melted your heart please get in touch

Meet Clover!Clover and her litter mates were found tied up in a sack and abandoned. Thankfully, one of the pups managed to chew a hole through the fabric and save them all. Clover along with her siblings got their second chance at life that day. While her brothers and sisters are all now settled into their new homes, Clover is still waiting for someone to choose her.Thankfully Clover is in a wonderful foster home near Worcester. We honestly don’t know why she’s been overlooked, she truly is such a special, gentle soul. She is such a beautiful girl , joyful, playful, and so incredibly loving.Once she knows you, she absolutely craves contact and cuddles. She loves climbing up for a lap cuddle, will happily join you for a lie in, ( if given the chance ) and just completely melts into you. She is so gentle with her affection, often giving sweet little nose-to-hand or nose-to-nose nudges.Clover loves water, and surprisingly, isn’t bothered by thunder and lightning at all …Because of her rough start, she can be a little shy at first and sudden movements can spook her. But if you take things slow she warms up beautifully and that deeply affectionate side comes right outClover is fantastic with other dogs of all shapes and sizes. She’s met plenty of new friends in her foster home, is always very calm during introductions.Because she can be a bit timid, we’re looking for a nice rural semi rural home with a nice secure garden with grass , and another friendly dog to play with. Shelter life didn’t do this sweet girl justice, but now that she’s in a foster home, she is truly starting to flourish. All she needs is a patient family, a comfy sofa, and a little bit of time to show you what an incredible companion she is.

MEET DONNIE: THE STUNNING BOY WITH THE SCRUFFY NOSE!Are you looking for a “cheeky” companion with big soulful eyes and the most adorable scruffy tuft on his nose? Meet Donnie, a 7-month-old Shepherd mix who is ready to find his forever homeDonnie is currently in a foster home in Gloucestershire, with 8 other dogs of all sizes, and he is a total social butterfly. Whether it’s playing tug-of-war, chasing friends, or snuggling up for a massive fuss and a cuddle, Donnie is a boy who wears his heart on his sleeve. Loves a cuddle, and definitely loves to jump in the bed for morning cuddles he just melts into youDonnie is sweet, loving, and entertaining to watch. He has that classic “puppy slouch” and knows exactly how to look innocent when he’s been a little bit cheeky. Donnie MUST live with at least one other dog. He thrives on canine company and loves to play. Donnie will play for up to an hour, but also likes to then chew on a bone, or mouth a toy, and watch the world go by definitely, he is definitely not an agility dog He has lived with cats previously (though not in the last 3 months).Donnie needs a rural/semi rural home with a large secure garden (with lawn is a must). No children, please.Donnie is fully toilet trained and walks beautifully on a lead in rural areas. He is HIGHLY food-motivated (he’ll do anything for a treat!), which makes him a dream to train. Donnie is starting to show his Shepherd roots, he is wary of strangers/workmen and feels the need to protect his family. He needs a home with previous experience with Shepherd or Guardian breeds to help guide him as he grows. Donnie gets so excited for food he literally paddles his feet. Because he can be a bit of a “brat” and try to steal food from other dogs, he is crate-fed to keep meal times calm and happy. He has learned to settle and chill when left alone (he may have a small whine in his crate but soon settles for a nap).
