Are you right for Acorn?Acorn is a sweet independent little chap, he enjoys a fuss and the company of his friends but is also happy to wander off and do his own thing. Acorn is a friendly boy particularly if you have a snack or two to share!Is Acorn right for you?Acorn enjoys exploring the world one sniff at a time, he is currently working on his manners with other dogs and prefers a quieter space to wander about. Acorn can struggle with busy walks, particularly traffic so would like easy walks from the house where he can build up his confidence slowly.

BARK

Beautiful Adah has been back with us a few months after her second home fell through. Adah really does need a very special home but we are determined to find it! She is 7 years old, vacs and chipped and will be spayed. Adah is a really lovely girl with us and has a great relationship with everyone at the kennels but in a home she can be aggressive with strangers and needs to be either muzzled or shut away from any visitors. She also gets quite stressed when left during the day so needs someone who will be around most of the time. She loves to play and enjoys running around our secure field. She would love a good sized secure garden with 6ft plus fencing as she is very athletic and can scale a fence very easily. Adah needs to be the only pet and people who are willing to give her the time she needs to settle and bond. She hates being in her kennel so we really hope that special someone is out there for her and she can get her happy ending. If you are interested in meeting Adah please read through our adoption criteria in the link in the ADOPT section and message us with as much information as possible. We are currently running on appointments only.

New Leaf Dog Rescue

Adele came into the shelter raising her litter of puppies and graciously welcomed the help of the rescuers. She appears to be a labrador mix and has many characteristics of a retriever. She is generally a very happy and friendly dog but can be a little bouncy. She gets along well with the other dogs at the shelter and is looking for a home that can take her for lots of exercise, and work on some basic training with her. She is very food motivated and is sure to be a quick study.

Doris Banham Dog Rescue

Please meet our cheerful gorgeous crossbreed, a very happy boy with a tail that just won’t stop wagging!Poor Adey was kept outside in -5 degrees without any shelter sitting on a concrete step begging to be let into the kitchen.He was kept alive by a neighbour throwing food over the fence, who raised the alarm.He got the name Adey because his neighbour who kept him alive was called Adrian. The community asked for our help.He loves being around people and, while he might be a bit strong on the lead at first, he settles down quickly. That said, he does appreciate having his personal space when out and about and isn't a fan of being crowded.Adey really enjoys starting games, is ball obsessed and has an enthusiastic spirit, which shows he could benefit from a little extra training.Just a heads up - he’s definitely not a fan of rainy days!He would thrive best in a home without other pets, as he can be a bit reactive towards other dogs

New Leaf Dog Rescue

Aggie and Amelie are two sisters who has been waiting a long time for the perfect home. She was scooped up by the dog catchers and sent to the local pound. She was saved from the pound by our rescuer and has been waiting for her chance ever since. She is a very opinionated girl and would be best suited to a home where she would be the only pet. She could live with older children ages 13+ who understand that she just wants to be left alone.

Leicester Animal Rescue

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!

New Leaf Dog Rescue

Alanzo is a shy boy who was found alone in an abandoned house. As he still thinks he sees ghosts sometimes, he will need some time in a foster home to learn that the world is not so scary. He gets along fine with other dogs and would be ok in a home with teenage children ages 13+ who would understand his anxiety.

Jerry Green Dog Rescue

Hi, my name is Albert, and I’m looking for my forever home!I have lived with my family since I was just a baby, and I’m very lucky that they are continuing to care for me while I wait to find the perfect home. I’ve had lots of love throughout my life and now I’m ready to find a family who can help me enjoy the next chapter of my journey.I’m a friendly and affectionate boy weighing around 19kg, and I have so much love to give. I absolutely adore people and I’m happiest when I’m spending time with my humans. My favourite thing in the world is having my back scratched, and if you find the right spot, you’ll be rewarded with my famous full body wiggle!I’m a really adaptable lad and I take new experiences in my stride. I’ve been lucky enough to go on holidays with my family, visit new places, and meet lots of different people. When I came to the centre, I settled in brilliantly and showed everyone what a relaxed and friendly boy I can be.At home, I’m a very good boy. I’m house trained, crate trained, and I’m comfortable relaxing in my crate. I’m happy being separated with baby gates or closed doors, and I’m not destructive. I’m currently coping well with being left for longer periods due to my family’s work commitments, but I’d really love a home where I can spend more time being part of family life.I can be left for around 4 hours once I’m settled, and I could potentially be left for a full working day if I had support such as a dog walker or someone popping in for a midday break.I enjoy my walks and love having time to sniff and explore. I’m not a dog who needs endless miles, but I do enjoy getting out and about, taking my time, and finding a nice sunny spot in the garden for some sunbathing! I walk nicely on the lead and, although I might pull and be strong towards an interesting smell, I’m generally an easy-going walking companion.I’m a polite boy around other dogs and have shown that I can enjoy their company. I haven’t lived in a home with another dog before, so I’m looking for a home where I can be the only dog and have all the attention to myself. I would love to have doggy walking friends to enjoy adventures with, and I’m happy to share my walks with calm canine companions.I’ve grown up around children of all ages, I could live with children aged 8 years and over, as long as they are confident and don’t mind that I can jump up! My new family will need to help me learn calm greetings and understand that my enthusiasm.One thing my new family will need to understand is that sometimes I can have some very big feelings. When I get these, especially when meeting new people, receiving lots of attention, or being handled for a while, I can become a little overwhelmed. I might jump up or try to hump when I’m feeling this way, but I respond really well to calm guidance and reassurance.I’m a good traveller once I’m in the car and can happily travel for around 2 hours in my crate in the boot. I can sometimes be a little unsure about getting into the car and may need some encouragement, but once I’m loaded, I settle quietly.I may potentially be able to live with cats or other small animals, but as I haven’t lived with them before, this would need careful introductions. If you do have a cat, you will need to live close to the centre (PE20 2BB) so we can arrange a home visit and make sure it is the right match for everyone.If you’re looking for a loving, loyal companion who will greet you with a wagging tail, make you smile with my silly ways, and reward you with endless affection, I might just be the boy you’ve been waiting for.Love,Albert Key info: Children 8+, Small breed, Cat friendly, Housetrained, Secure garden, Dog friendly - on walks, Can be left alone for 4 hrs

New Leaf Dog Rescue

Alessia was found in front of our Rescuers house. The rescuer feels she came to her because the other dogs were calling for her to comer over. She is a friendly and approachable girl, who could live with other dogs but not with cats. She is still quite young and could live with children ages 8 and up who wouldn't be bothered by her friendly nature.

German Shepherd Rescue Elite

Please meet Alfie who is already a hit with all the volunteers.Our Alf is fully vaccinated, chipped and neutered.This boy is so polite, he is very calm in the kennel environment and also while out walking, although he can be very strong on the lead when walking alongside the other dogs.He has met quite a few people since he arrived from the stray pound and he has been ok with everyone.Alfie enjoys his walks and doesn’t really interact with the other dogs, no aggression he just prefers human company and will need to be the only dog in the home.He did have a short spell in a home. He did attach himself to one person more than the other and then tried to dominate the weaker person which caused problems and Alfie was returned to kennels. He will need stronger leadership next time and a couple who will work together in putting rules and guidelines in place so everyone knows exactly where they stand.It really isn’t hard to follow.Alfie is a very good boy when taking treats, he kindly offers his paw and takes the treat so gently.We have seen no issues around food other than the fact he is a very picky feeder and has lost some weight because of this. We have to watch his food intake and his tastes seem to change on a weekly basis. Currently he has a liking for Winalot pouches and will eat these happily so we give him a good supply. He also enjoys a hoof stuffed with raw and the odd pigs ear. He has recently shown some interest in toys which was great to watch, he did take a shine to one of the Kong balls with the handle another ball inside, he thought he had found some treasure.A no to cats and no history around children so teenagers only.If you are fully vetted by us and ready to roll speak to your area coordinator and pop along and visit me.
