About Leicester Animal Rescue

Leicester Animal Rescue is dedicated to providing dogs and cats with a long-term, permanent home where they can feel safe, loved, and secure. Based at the Fairwinds Shelter, the rescue takes in healthy cats and dogs, carrying out temperament checks and reviewing medical and vaccination records before acceptance. Animals in their care are given the stability and attention they need while waiting for the right forever home. Those interested in adoption are encouraged to view the animals available for rehoming and follow the charity’s careful, welfare-focused process.

Ajay, a 3 years old male Greyhound available for adoption from Leicester Animal Rescue in Leicestershire

Leicester Animal Rescue

Ajay

Leicestershire
SexMale
Age3 years
BreedGreyhound

Adorable Ajay is the sweetest boy. He’s an ex racing greyhound which means he has not been in a home, therefore, may not be house trained but don’t let that put you off. Ajay is a very snuggly, affectionate boy. He walks like a dream on the lead. He loves a good blast around a field (a secure one!). He can be homed with children over the age of 10 years old and seems fine with other dogs but can’t be homed with small furries. Ajay loves a soft toy to play with and snuggling up in a cozy bed. Unfortunately, black greyhounds get overlooked for some reason! But whoever is lucky enough to give this sweet boy a home, will have a loyal and loving friend for life!

Cece, a 3 years old female Rottweiler available for adoption from Leicester Animal Rescue in Leicestershire

Cece

Leicestershire
SexFemale
Age3 years
BreedRottweiler

Adorable Cece came to us due to her owner’s ill health. Poor Cece has been with us for a few months now but has sadly not found the right home. Although she can be a little hesitant to meet new people, she is an absolute love bug once she knows you. Cece generally walks well on a lead but can be strong if she does decide to pull or if she’s feeling stubborn. She has started to be stand offish towards strangers when on walks as she feels like she needs to protect her owner and can get too carried away with play where she can jump up and mouth so she does need someone who will set boundaries from the start. Ideally, Cece is looking for a home with someone with experience of the breed. We will home her with children over the age of 15 years old. She would prefer to be the only pet in the home although she has been ok with visiting dogs with her previous owners. She also doesn’t like cats. Cece is possessive of her food and toys with dogs. She’s a big girl (approx 45kg!) who can sometimes be a bit boisterous. She loves to play and enjoys having a fuss. Sweet Cece will make a loving and loyal pet, she just needs someone to give her a chance to decompress and settle in

Freya, a 1 year old female Border Collie available for adoption from Leicester Animal Rescue in Leicestershire

Freya

Leicestershire
SexFemale
Age1 year
BreedBorder Collie

Freya has sadly been returned due to no fault of her own. She is with us due to her owners poor mental health. She is a friendly girl but would benefit from an active household as she is an energetic breed. She is dog friendly however, passing some dogs, she can be reactive if they bark and has redirected in the past so this is something that will need further training. She has made some dog friends here and can walk alongside them nicely. Freya loves to play and would play ball all day long if she could. She can be homed with children over the age of 10 years old and she does not like cats

Kodak

Leicestershire
SexMale
Age1 year
BreedPocket Bully

Kodak is with us due to his owner expecting another child and finding it too much to cope with him and children. He is a happy boy who loves everyone and although he is used to young children he would be better homed with children from the age of 7 years old as he can knock young childen over unintentionally. He walks well on a lead and is good with other dogs although much better with females. Kodak has not lived with cats

Loki, a 7 years old male Shar Pei available for adoption from Leicester Animal Rescue in Leicestershire

Loki

Leicestershire
SexMale
Age7 years
BreedShar Pei

Adorable Loki is with us due to the child in the home tormenting him and his owners did not think it was fair to Loki. He is a sweet boy who enjoys a good fuss and playing with his toys. He can be nervous of men to begin with but soon comes round. He can walk nicely on his harness but can be strong on the lead when he wants to get to something. He is not a fan of other dogs but will happily walk alongside some (better with females). He does not like cats. He is well behaved with kids and can be homed children over the age of 7 years old. He’s a gentle boy who sits nicely to take a treat. Loki is being overlooked and we can’t understand why, hes definitely got the cute factor going for him! We think he is most likely shar pei x staffie (approx 20kg). This smushie faced boy deserves is his happy ever after, if someone will just give him a chance.

Sheru, a 9 months old male Golden Retriever available for adoption from Leicester Animal Rescue in Leicestershire

Leicester Animal Rescue

Sheru

Leicestershire
SexMale
Age9 months
BreedGolden Retriever

Sheru has been returned twice for possessive behaviour. Please only call if you have experience with this. Although he is a handsome retriever, he has behavioural issues that need addressing. He is with us because his owners could not cope with his possessive behaviour. He has chewed things in the home and will need a home where someone is home most of the time to put in the work to train him. He is used to young children visiting the home but has not lived with young children and as he can be possessive of food and toys we would rehome him to a home with older children. He is a lively young pup and can jump up but again, with training this can be improved. He can pull on the lead but he is good with other dogs and has not been around cats
