I have more photos below! Check out my video Large Lab Mix 8 Years Old Dog Friendly? Likes Dogs Cat Friendly? No Cats Child Friendly? Children over 12 Neutered? Yes Big Fred is one of our favourites, and it’s not hard to see why. His happy smile, big personality and affectionate nature make him a much-loved resident of our kennels. He is the perfect example of tall, dark and handsome, although he could perhaps work on being a little more suave with the ladies. Having been with us for a while now, it’s fair to say he’s been unlucky in love so far. He was originally rescued from Romania after being pulled from a kill shelter. He has spent a little over 2 years with us, never finding his permanent home. His size can be intimidating to some, but big-dog lovers quickly realise that he’s really just a big, soppy softie. All of our staff are comfortable handling him as he walks well on the lead; however, he has shown a keen interest in birds and small furries, so a Gencon works best to keep him under control when he gets over-excited. We have put plenty of training into Big Fred so we would love to see his forever home follow this. We are happy to offer a handling session and plenty of follow-ups with his forever home. Big Fred has never shared indoor space with another dog before, but this could be a possibility following a successful meet and greet. That said, we honestly think he has more than enough love to give on his own. He is neutral with unfamiliar dogs when out on walks, which is ideal. He has also made friends with the other resident dogs in the kennels, including his best friend and kennel neighbour, Colin. Mostly because Colin always shares his treats when he comes back from “day release”. Roast potatoes from the pub are his favourite. While Big Fred can take his time to trust new people, it doesn’t take very long for him to warm up, he seems to be more trusting easily trusting of men, he is a proper “lad dog” so we can understand why. Our staff love sneaking into Big Fred’s kennel for a cuddle. He adores a good scratch and will usually paw at your arm if you have the audacity to stop fussing him for more than a few seconds. He is a leaner, resting his full weight against your side when you sit together. Big Fred is a happy lad who is almost always wagging his tail, so much so that last year he sadly had to have most of it removed after wagging it to the point where it repeatedly split. Thankfully, he hasn’t mourned the loss of his lovely long tail. In fact, having a shorter one just means it can wiggle and wag even faster, with no consequences at all! As Big Fred has been with us for so long, a big change such as moving into a forever home may come as a surprise to him. We would therefore advise patience, structure and clear routines in his new home, along with plenty of time to decompress. We will be on board with his new owners throughout the process, ensuring that his next home truly is his forever one. Adoption Fee (£400) Microchipped Please accept cookies to access this content

I have more photos below. Watch my video! Medium/Large Lab Mix Age: 2.5 Years Dog Friendly? Ideally only dog in home Cat Friendly? Likes Cats Child Friendly? No Children Neutered? Yes Originally rescued as a puppy from a rubbish dump in Macedonia along with her eight siblings, Cleo now longs to be the focal point in a home where she has the space to stretch her legs and play. She spent almost a year in a home but was returned due to her struggling with the bustling environment; the numerous children, resident dogs, and high noise levels caused her stress and made it difficult for her to adjust. She is now flourishing in the more tranquil environment of our kennels. We would like to rehome her locally so that we can continue to provide support to her adopters. A lady with long legs and an agile build, she cherishes her daily sprints across our secure field. We hope to find her a home with an enclosed garden where she can let loose. Her high energy and intelligence mean she would excel with one-to-one training and engagement. Young and brimming with potential, Cleo would make an excellent agility dog and has already mastered the basic commands, eagerly offering her paw for a delicious treat. She is very food motivated but also loves her toys, an old football is perfect for her to play fetch and tug-of-war with, this is a great way to get some of her excess energy out before a walk. Cleo tends to get excited at the start of her walks, probably because she is thrilled to be out and about. As she gets used to her new home routine, walks will become a regular part of her day, helping her stay calm and composed. After she calms down, she’s great on a walk, using a harness and slip lead. She’s content to ignore other dogs, interacts nicely when it’s called for, but much prefers her personal space. Because of this, we believe she would do best as the only dog in a household. Trust us, she has plenty of love to share! She’s adored by her caregivers and has many quirks that always keep us amused. If she thinks you’re not giving her the attention she deserves, she’ll nudge your hands with her paw until she’s content. Sometimes, after a bout of zoomies, her floppy ears can’t quite figure out where they want to be, leaving her with one ear down and the other hilariously flipped up. Cleo recently had a chance to meet some animals, and she did great! She’s curious about cats and enjoys a good sniff but doesn’t show any aggression. She also encountered chickens and peacocks and was content to just sniff around without displaying any hunting instincts. Cleo thrives on a raw food diet, which has been fantastic for her health and keeping her in great shape. We hope her new family will continue this diet. If you think she looks a lot like Little Fred, another one of our dogs, you’re right—they’re littermates! Their similar cheerful dispositions are just one of the many traits they share. She has tested negative for brucellosis, leishmaniasis and has passed her Snap 4D test which tests for heartworm, ehrlichia and anaplasma. A healthy, happy girl.

I have more photos below, check out my video! Medium Mix Breed Age: 3.5 Months as of April 2026 Dog Friendly? Likes Dogs Cat Friendly? Likes Cats Child Friendly? Children over 8 Neutered? Not yet, due to age Location: Romania Conner is simply precious, a sweet little boy with the biggest, most pleading puppy-dog eyes. His all-white fur rarely stays that way for long, as he loves nothing more than rolling in the grass and playing with his doggy friends. Despite everything he has been through, he has a wonderful affectionate nature. What Conner needs now is a forever home where he can feel safe, grow, and learn all there is to know about being a dog. Conner and his siblings were rescued from a kill shelter in Romania. Sadly, they contracted parvovirus and were very poorly for a long time. Heartbreakingly, Conner was the only one of his litter to survive. Since then, he has been a little lost without his siblings and seeks comfort and attention from those around him. He absolutely loves being with people and enjoys plenty of fuss. He also loves playing with other dogs and would likely thrive in a home with an existing dog for companionship. Conner has been cat-tested and is completely unfazed by them. Given his young age, Conner will need a home committed to his upbringing. Continuing his training and setting clear boundaries. As he grows, he will naturally test limits, so his new family should be prepared to guide him with patience and consistency.

I have more photos below! Large Mix Breed Age: 4 Months as of May 2026 Dog Friendly? Likes Dogs Cat Friendly? Not Cat Tested Child Friendly? Over 12 Neutered? Not yet due to age Location: Nottingham, UK May Day Bank Holiday… and we thought we’d spend it relaxing. Don’t be daft, Dougie needed rescuing! Dougie is a charming mixed-breed pup with the sweetest face. He gives the gentlest kisses, loves a cuddle, and is still growing into his long legs and big ears. He’s bound to become a truly handsome, majestic lad as he matures. We worked alongside another rescue to bring Dougie to safety from his previous home. He had been kept outside on a high-rise balcony rather than inside the flat, and when he arrived, he was extremely underweight, he practically inhaled his first proper meal with us. Since then, Dougie has settled beautifully into his foster home, quickly making himself comfortable and part of the family. He currently shares his foster home with several Bulldogs, who are very social and have welcomed him with open paws. Dougie loves playing with them in the garden and enjoys a good game of tug with his toys. He would happily share his forever home with another dog. Like many young pups, he’s a wonderfully silly, goofy lad. Full of energy one moment, then completely conked out in his crate the next. Dougie recently visited the vets for his vaccinations and charmed everyone he met. The staff fell in love with him immediately, praising how sweet and gentle he was. He was completely unfazed by his injections and happily handed out kisses and cuddles all round. While he was a bit noisy on the journey there, all the excitement sent him straight to sleep on the way back. We don’t know Dougie’s exact breeding. We believe he has some Husky in him, but beyond that, it’s anyone’s guess. He is still learning the ins and outs of home life, so he’ll need an adopter who is committed to providing structure, boundaries and guidance to help him grow into a well-behaved adult. Dougie could be suited to a family with children, ideally aged 12 and over. He’s friendly and sociable, but still very much a puppy, so he will show typical puppy behaviours. He hasn’t yet been cat-tested, but this is something we’d be happy to arrange for a prospective adopter. Adoption fees apply (£450) Microchipped

Not yet due to age Location: Romania Little Baby Dylis, how small and sweet! She’s an adorable puppy with mostly white fur, a brindle eye patch, and the cutest black “kissy lips” marking on her mouth. She’s always happy to smile for the camera, especially if cuddles are offered as a reward. Dylis is still very young and small at the moment, but she definitely has plenty of growing to do. She was rescued from a kill shelter in Romania along with her littermates and is now looking for a loving forever home. Her ideal family will be ready to commit to the exciting journey of raising a puppy. Dylis loves being around people and gets on well with other dogs she meets. Given her young age, she could also live with a cat, provided she is properly socialised. Although she’s small now, as Dylis grows she will naturally begin to test boundaries and push her luck at home. She’ll need an adopter who understands this stage of development and is willing to guide her with patience and consistency as she becomes more confident.

I have more photos! Scroll down and check me out Labrador Mix 5 Years Old Dog Friendly? Yes, after slow introductions. Cat Friendly? No Child Friendly? Over 14 Neutered? Yes Our boy Freddie is a much-loved resident at our kennels. He is a handsome lad with a charming personality, dirty blonde fur and gorgeous amber eyes. He is happiest when he’s playing in our field with his football, and he might even let you get a few kicks in if you can catch him. Freddie has been with us for over two years, which is such a shame because he really is a wonderful boy. He is friendly with people, clean in his crate, knows all his commands and is neutral with other dogs when out on walks. He walks beautifully on lead with a gencon (in fact, he would walk for miles if you let him, as he loves being out and about). In the evenings he enjoys snuggling up and happily sleeps through the night. Unfortunately, Freddie has a disease called Leishmaniasis. A quick Google search can make this sound very serious; however, Freddie is very fortunate in that it does not affect his life in any way. He is asymptomatic, meaning he does not suffer from the typical symptoms sometimes seen in dogs who do not receive appropriate treatment. He takes a small tablet daily with his food, which he wolfs down completely none the wiser, and has a yearly blood test. Our vets have said he is one of the healthiest Leish+ dogs they have ever seen, and we can confidently say that Freddie is living a happy, healthy life. We would also like to make it very clear that Leishmaniasis cannot be spread to other dogs, animals or humans. If there is one thing Freddie truly loves, it’s football. He is at his happiest in our field, charging around with his ball in his mouth. He also loves training and listens very well when treats are involved. He has mastered our assault course, confidently leaping over ramps and through the tyre hoop. Once he’s tired himself out, he likes to join us in our caravan for a cuddle, leaning into you so you can pop an arm around him. Freddie has a wonderfully silly, affectionate streak that makes him a firm favourite with our staff and volunteers. Freddie is neutral towards other dogs when out on walks, which is ideal. He has not shared indoor space with another dog before, but this could be considered following a successful meet and greet. We are looking for a home without cats or small furries. Freddie does like children, but due to his size and energy levels we would recommend a home with children aged 14+. A garden where he can play football is an absolute must, he insists! He can push his luck at times, but he knows the word “no” and will listen once he’s finished throwing a brief teenage strop. Recently, we’ve had the feeling that Freddie is starting to feel a little depressed in the kennels. While he enjoys his routine and loves spending time with our staff and volunteers, what he really wants is a home. A place where he can feel loved and have all the individual attention he deserves. All he asks for is someone with a little patience and understanding who’s willing to take a chance on him. We would also consider a long-term foster placement for Freddie. He is an absolutely cracking dog and, although we would be very sad to see him go, we would be thrilled to see him settled into a loving home of his own.

I have more photos below, check out my video! Medium Mix Breed Age: 9 Months as of May 2026 Dog Friendly? Likes Dogs Cat Friendly? No Cats Child Friendly? Children over 8 Neutered? Yes Location: Romania Lovely Mira is such a sweet girl. She’s a beautiful, all-black dog with a unique, scruffy, wiry coat. She is looking for a home where she can settle down and enjoy all the love a family has to offer. Mira has an incredibly loving nature, making her a perfect companion. Mira was dropped off at a vet clinic and left, we don’t know anything about her past so she may have been born on the streets or may have come from a home. She has been settling in well in temporary foster care, gaining confidence and learning from the older dogs around her. She gets on very well with other dogs and has a particular soft spot for puppies, she absolutely melts around them and genuinely enjoys their company. She would be a great match for a home with an existing dog. She is an affectionate girl who loves being close to her people. She will follow her carer from room to room and eagerly lean in for cuddles and chin scratches. She thrives on human company and is a true little shadow in the home. Her gentle nature makes her a good fit for a home with sensible children over 12. However, Mira can be frightened by loud noises and may be a little shy to begin with, so slow introductions are key. As Mira is still young, she will need an owner who is committed to continuing her training and socialisation as she grows. She currently weighs around 12kg and, while she may grow a little more, We doubt she will grow to be very large, she has a slim build with graceful long legs. Mira did manage to sneak out of her foster carer’s home at one point, so her forever home will need a secure garden. We would also advise keeping her on a long lead in the garden for the first few weeks until she is fully settled. Mira is unsure of cats, she doesn’t quite know what to make of them and, if anything, seems a little frightened of them. For this reason, we would recommend a home without cats, just to be safe.

I have more photos below! Staffordshire Bull Terrier Age: 7 Months as of May 2026 Dog Friendly? Likes Dogs Cat Friendly? Not Cat Tested Child Friendly? Over 12 Neutered? Not yet due to age Location: Nottingham, UK Mad Man Murphy certainly made himself known when he arrived at the kennels. Anyone who knows Staffies will understand just how vocal they can be… Murphy is a stunning Staffordshire Bull Terrier with a lovely dark coat. He knows exactly how to use those puppy-dog eyes and has us all wrapped around his paw. Murphy came to us after spending a few months in a home with an older dog. Unfortunately, the older dog took a dislike to him and would frequently start fights. He was placed in foster care for a few days through another rescue, but they struggled to cope after introductions were rushed and things moved too quickly. After a few days in kennels, it’s clear that Murphy needs some guidance. We are working on building his engagement and introducing some much-needed training. He’s taking it all in his stride but, being a puppy, he’s far more interested in playing and racing around our field. He is every bit the typical Staffie—he loves playing with his tug toy, which is a great way to build engagement with his carers. He gets on well with other dogs and could share his future home with another friendly dog. He is also sociable with dogs when out and about. We are currently working on his lead walking, crate training and impulse control. His ideal owner would be willing to continue the training we’ve started to ensure he grows into a well-rounded adult dog. Previous experience with the breed would be a bonus, but isn’t essential. We would recommend that any children in the home are over 12, as Murphy can be a bit full-on, especially when excited. He comes in like a wrecking ball and can be quite the little fur tornado. Murphy is in great health, he is up to date on vaccinations but he will need neutering when he is old enough. Murphy is incredibly loving and affectionate, and all of our staff adore him. He’s a sweet, funny character and is sure to make a fantastic addition to the right home. Adoption fees apply (£450) Microchipped

I have more photos below! Large Mix Breed Age: 2 Years Dog Friendly? Likes Dogs Cat Friendly? No Child Friendly? No Children Neutered/Spayed? Yes Our beloved Oakley has returned to us after her adoption did not go as planned. She is an absolute stunner, boasting white blonde fur that’s soft to the touch, ideal for snuggles. Her charming floppy ears and large, expressive puppy eyes make her a standout beauty among the dogs in our kennels. She had been with them for nearly a year, yet her nervousness proved challenging for them to handle. The bustling family life was not a good fit for her, so she has returned to us. We are hopeful to find her a home that values her gentle pace and can offer a tranquil setting where she can not only emerge from her shell but also thrive. She gets along well with other dogs, so a home with a confident canine companion could benefit her by providing guidance. She enjoys playing in our secure field and is fond of her toys. Oakley’s humorous and playful nature never fails to make us laugh. Oakley lacks confidence and often finds it challenging to cope with unfamiliar outdoor environments. A handler with experience in dealing with shy, nervous dogs would be ideal for her. Her anxiety typically presents as barking and posturing to appear intimidating, which is her way of deterring perceived threats. We are actively engaged in a training regimen designed to bolster her confidence and improve her reactions to various stimuli. Oakley is making excellent progress; however, it is crucial that her future adopter is committed to sustaining this positive trajectory. We would like to rehome her locally so that we can continue to provide support to her adopters. Once Oakley has built trust, she becomes a cuddly and humorous companion, full of affection and playfulness. She enjoys visiting our office, quickly making the sofa her own and engaging with her toy. However, her endearing puppy eyes usually mean she won’t be by herself on the sofa for too long! The ideal environment for Oakley would be a home without cats or young children. She may be suitable to live with older teenagers, but she is not comfortable with strangers in her space. Crate training plays a significant role in helping Oakley adjust to new surroundings, providing her with a personal area where she can retreat when she wants solitude is key to her comfort.

I have more photos below, check out my video! Medium Mix Breed Dog Friendly? Like Dogs Cat Friendly? Likes Cats Child Friendly? Children over 12 Neutered? Yes Location: Romania The Romanian snow doesn’t bother little Raven one bit. His soft, fluffy coat keeps him warm and cosy, no matter the weather. Raven is a truly gorgeous boy who’s dreaming of a home where he can curl up, feel safe, and enjoy lots of cuddles. His shiny black coat is brightened by a sweet white patch on his chest and the most adorable spotty legs. One look at his gentle face and you can’t help but fall in love. Raven is a very lucky boy. He narrowly escaped the kill shelter, and thanks to his calm, gentle nature he was given a place in foster care, where he can finally relax while waiting for his forever family. At first, all the attention felt a bit overwhelming, but once he realised he was safe and no one was going to hurt him, his walls slowly came down. Now he’s discovered just how nice a soft chin scratch can be. Raven is still finding his confidence. Most of the time his tail stays tucked low, but every now and then you’ll spot a shy little wag that shows how far he’s already come. When he trusts you, his sweet personality really shines through. He’s a kind, gentle soul who just wants to feel loved. He gets along well with other dogs and would be happy to share his new home with a canine friend. Having another dog around would give someone to learn from. You will have to ignore the small nick under his eye, there is a small dog also in foster who isn’t overly fond of him and Raven doesn’t always have the best luck with the ladies. Raven could also live with a cat, especially one who is used to dogs. He’s a bit puzzled by cats and doesn’t quite know what to think of them yet, so slow, gentle introductions would help everyone settle in happily. But at the end of the day, Raven would just be happy to be in a loving home where he feels safe. We don’t know if Raven has lived with children before. As an older dog who came from a shelter, it’s possible he once had a family of his own. Because he can feel overwhelmed at times, we’d recommend a home with children aged 12 and over, who can understand when he needs a little space. A crate would be a lovely safe haven for Raven — a quiet spot where he can retreat and relax whenever he needs some time to himself.

I have more photos below, check out my video! Medium Mix Breed Age: 1 (turning 2 in October) Dog Friendly? Like Dogs Cat Friendly? Likes Cats Child Friendly? Children over 12 Neutered? Yes Location: Nottinghamshire Roxy is a stunning girl who is looking for a loving home. She is a medium-sized, wire-haired dog, similar in size to a Labrador, with a sweet face and a charming schnauzer-like beard. Roxy is an affectionate girl who loves attention from her carers. Not much is known about Roxy’s background. She was rescued from a kill shelter in Romania and brought to our temporary foster accommodation. As she is still young, she may have been born on the streets and picked up by dog catchers, or it is possible that she once had a home but was abandoned. Roxy is a friendly girl who is happy to say hello to people, so we believe she was probably raised around humans before finding herself at the shelter. Now that she has had time to settle outside of the shelter, she is loving all the attention. Roxy is a real cuddle bug and enjoys spending time with her carers. She is great with other dogs and would be happy sharing her forever home with a canine friend. As this may be Roxy’s first time living in a home environment, a doggy sibling could be a great guide for her and give her someone to follow while she learns the ins and outs of family life. Roxy is also cat-friendly. She is far more interested in cuddling with her human friends, so a home with cats could be an option for her—ideally with cats who have met dogs before. She is good with children and could live in a home with children aged 12 and over. Due to her size and young age, she can become a little excitable when playing. A home with a garden would be wonderful so she can sunbathe in the summer and enjoy playing with her ball and toys. As she is still technically a puppy, Roxy would benefit from a home that can help her learn boundaries and establish a routine. She is a sponge for training and will be eager to learn. When she has her bags packed and makes her journey to the UK, she will receive a great head start with her training to ensure she leaves for her new home on the right paw.

More photos can be found below Medium Mix Breed 5 Years Old Dog Friendly? Selective Cat Friendly? No Child Friendly? No Neutered? Yes Shelby is shy at first but once trust is established she is extremely affectionate and loving. She will need a home that has experience with shy/low confidence dogs. She was originally rescued from Romania and has had some less than pleasant experiences in the past (domestic violence). She walks very well on the lead and is neutral towards dogs that she sees, she could potentially live with another dog (ideally a calm older dog) we would hold a meet-and-greet with any dog she would be living with to make sure that introductions are positive. We would like her to be in a quiet home with no children. Shelby cannot live with cats. She is raw fed but her favourite food is Quavers, she will share but has the majority to herself. She needs a home who understands her shy exterior and can encourage her silly, affectionate personality to take centre stage. We truly believe Shelby will thrive in the right home. She has tested negative for brucellosis, leishmaniasis and has passed her Snap 4D test which tests for heartworm, ehrlichia and anaplasma. A healthy, happy girl.
