About Mayflower Sanctuary

Mayflower Sanctuary was established on 6 June 2003 by volunteers from Animals in Need 2000 after years of fundraising and dedication to creating a permanent rescue facility. What began as a modest site with minimal amenities has grown into a well-equipped sanctuary designed to provide comfort and care for animals in need. Over the years, generous bequests and charitable funding have enabled significant improvements, including a welcoming reception area and modern cattery blocks. Today, Mayflower Sanctuary continues to go from strength to strength, offering a safe haven and a fresh start for vulnerable animals.

This handsome fella is Bandit! He is an 8 month old mixed breed, looking for his forever home That must include being active and up for some entertainment when it comes to his long legs!Bandit is a loving and affectionate boy, who adores all the cuddles possible and being around his people. He’s very food motivated which makes him very eager to learn with the right training and lots of delicious treats! He enjoys playing with his fur friends and absolutely loves to play in water.Like any young dog – Bandit is still learning and he does need continued training when it comes to socialising out on walks, so he will need a patient owner who is willing to put the work in and help build his confidence. With consistency and a lot of love he has so much potential to become an amazing companion.

Bella

South Yorkshire
SexFemale
Age5 years
BreedCrossbreed

This beautiful girl is a Doberman X Staffy – what a mix! Bella is an incredibly intelligent lady, with so much potential. She will need a home that is experienced with high drive and active breeds. She already knows some basic commands, but still has a fair way to go. She is a dog that will need plenty of physical exercise, mental enrichment in her day-to-day life and training, especially with her lead walking. She will need to be the only dog in the home; however, she can be walked around and greet other dogs – she will be looking for positive experiences with other dogs, including being socialised with well-rounded and established adult dogs.

Bella 2

South Yorkshire
SexFemale
Age10 years
BreedShih Tzu

This girl is small but mighty! She has a massive personality, as any typical Shihtzu does.. She can be a little vocal, but she just likes to make sure she gets what she wants! In true Terrier fashion, she still very much acts like a youngster – active and bright. She does love to play with toys, but theres no telling if Bella will share them with you – that’s up to her! She does need to be the only dog in the home; however she could possibly still go on walks with other dogs. An adult only home for Bella please.

Dee Dee., a 9 years old female Labrador available for adoption from Mayflower Sanctuary in South Yorkshire

Dee Dee.

South Yorkshire
SexFemale
Age9 years
BreedLabrador

This lovely girl is around 9 years old and still very much full of life! She is a Labrador X JRT and don’t we know it! She absolutely loves to play, especially with toys (and balls are for sure her favourite). Deedee can be a little strong on the lead, so she will need a sturdy handler for her walks. We have found that she possibly may have separation issues, so may struggle being left alone in the house. However, this is something that could definitely be worked on with her for the future. She needs to be the only dog in the home, but she can walk with other dogs out and about. Children would need to be 12+.
