SexMale
Age10 months
BreedBulldog

I may have had a very tough start to my life, but I refuse to let my past define me! The wonderful team at Millbrook have been helping me learn how to trust again, and I have made massive strides. I am a brave, resilient boy who only has three legs, but that doesn't slow me down! I am just looking for a special family to help me write my next, best chapter.Once I know you and trust you, I am an absolute lovebug! My love is full-on—I’m talking enthusiastic greetings, big energy, and total devotion. Because I can be a bit bouncy when I'm expressing my affection, I need a home with older, dog-savvy teenage children who can handle my joyful outbursts.I can still be a little wary of new people when we are out and about around the centre. Because of this, I am looking for patient adopters who have experience with nervous dogs and are excited to continue working on my confidence and training. Trust me, the reward of winning my heart is entirely worth it!The Only Pet: I am a social guy and enjoy meeting other dogs out on walks, but my play style is very "full-on." I would be happiest as the only pet in the home, but I'd love a solid circle of walking doggy friends!Exercise Needs: Having three legs means I need to manage my fitness carefully. I will need a family who can help me build up to more frequent exercise gradually, making sure I don't push myself too far. I may also need a ramp at home and for the car.Patient & Experienced Hands: My perfect match will understand body language, know how to manage a sensitive dog in public, and be willing to give me the time and space I need to settle in.Arnold will need his own private and secure garden where he can enjoy offlead play. He will also need a refresher on house training and car travel. He will also need someone based at home during the day and will then need a slow build up to being left.Arnold has overcome so much adversity and has so much love to give. If you have the experience and the heart to help this resilient boy thrive, he will repay you tenfold with a lifetime of loyalty.

Bear

Surrey
SexMale
Age4 years
BreedStaffordshire Bull Terrier

Bear came into our care after a tough past, arriving underweight and very shut down. But with a little time, patience, and love, his confidence has blossomed, his weight is up, and his sweet, gentle soul is shining through!Bear is a clever, independent chap looking for a quiet forever home where he can feel safe, loved, and pampered—just as he deserves.Gentle with a Cheeky Streak: Bear is a gentle soul at heart, but he does have a fun, cheeky side! He can occasionally get a bit over-excited, so he’ll thrive with adopters who can offer a calm, grounded environment.Football Enthusiast: Bear loves his play sessions! His absolute favorite toy is a football (though fair warning: he will pop it pretty quickly!).Independent Explorer: On walks, Bear loves to potter around off-lead, occasionally checking in with you for a quick fuss. He’s happy to politely say hello to other dogs before continuing on his way with you.Because of Bear’s history and specific needs, his ideal home should tick the following boxes:Experienced & Calm Household: Adopters should have previous dog experience to help manage his excitement and guide him with confidence.Family Setup: Best suited to a home with older, secondary school-aged children who understand his need for calm space.Pet Status: Must be the only dog in the home—he loves his independence and wants all your attention to himself!Location & Garden: A quiet area away from loud surrounding noises (which can worry him), featuring a private, secure garden with 6ft fencing.Routine & Company: Needs someone home for most of the day to help him settle into a home routine, refresh his house training, and gradually build up his confidence being left alone.On-Lead Confidence: He can be a little strong on lead at times, so his owners will need to be physically confident handling him.Bear takes a little time to warm up to unfamiliar people and build trust. His potential adopters will need to visit him at Millbrook a few times before taking him home.He might not bond instantly on day one, but once you win his trust, you’ll have a loyal, loving friend for life!

Bear – Pearl Puppy, a 4 years old male Belgian Malinois available for adoption from German Shepherd Rescue Elite in Surrey

Bear – Pearl Puppy

Surrey
SexMale
Age4 years
BreedBelgian Malinois

This is Bear’s original write up:“Pearl was picked up as a stray in December and was heavily pregnant. No microchip and nobody to claim her, so we were asked if we could help. Pearl is quite nervous when meeting new people and we suspect she has had a good hiding at some stage, but once she realises you mean her no harm, she is a sweetheart. She likes her space from other dogs but no issues with them at all. Has totally ignored the horses in the field next door as well. On the 22nd December Pearl gave birth to 11 puppies, 4 boys and 7 girls. Sadly one little girl was not breathing and despite getting her started and suckling, she passed over Rainbow Bridge just over 24 hours later.Pearl is a GSD but not knowing what dad was we did a DNA sample on one of the girls which came back as: 56% GSD, 29% Belgian Mali, 7% Border Collie, and 6% Greyhound.The pups are all confident and tear around the place causing bedlam as you would expect. They do all like a snuggle though as well. The pups will need homes that have some experience of the main breed at least as they will need plenty of exercise and mental stimulation as they get older. “Bear came back at 11 months old quite simply the person who adopted him failed to give him the training, socialisation and boundaries he needed, so whereas all the other pups are super with people and other dogs, Bear still mouths, still jumps up, reacts to anything that moves when out on lead….To say he has been let down is an understatement. Did his adopter take him regularly to training like she said she would? No! Did she contact anyone to say she was having issues? No! The first we know about it is when he is snapping at the children when they take things off him and suddenly he has to go immediately otherwise she has booked an appointment at the vets to murder him because a volunteer said it may take a couple of weeks to find him somewhere.We don’t always get the homes right and most certainly did not in this case, but Bear is now safely back where he was born and settled straight back in. He will learn some of the manners he missed out on from the older dogs but there is no malice in this gorgeous lad, purely he is behaving as a young male pup would not having been given the proper direction.Bear definitely deserves a special home now please!

BreedSoft Coated Wheaten Terrier

Hi there, my names Biscoff and I'm a real cheeky chap! I can get a little scared of quick hand movements but soon come out of my shell. I'm very nosey and get involved in eveything going on around me. If you love Terriers then your sure to love me! I also had a very bad start in life and need gentle introductions to new people, especially men.I'm looking for an active adult experienced terrier home where there is always lots going on, I need to stay on a long line because I love to go off investigating, once my super nose picks up a scent I'm off! A semi rural home would be best for me, as like my friend Buddy I do get scared by loud noises and traffic. I am super affectionate, love lots of cuddles and fuss and will make you laugh daily with my antics! My favourite trick is to distract you with some mischief and then slurp your cuppa! I will need a lovely secure garden with at least a 6ft fence with gravel boards. If you think im lovely complete a rehoming form.

Meet Blaze: A Joyful Labrador Cross Ready for His New BeginningIdeal Home: An experienced, patient household in a quiet area with a private garden.Blaze arrived at the center after being removed from a difficult situation where his basic welfare needs weren’t met. Despite a tough start to his first 2 years of life, this resilient Labrador cross has an absolutely lovely nature and a contagious enthusiasm for everything he does! He is truly a joyful dog who is ready to find a family that will show him how wonderful the world can be.Because everything is so exciting to him now, Blaze has that classic, bouncy Lab energy and loves to jump up to say hello. He will need an experienced owner who can gently train him and teach him some four-on-the-floor manners.Blaze can be a little nervous when meeting new people, but don't let that fool you—once he realizes you're a friend, he warms up quickly and his loving personality shines through. Because home life is still very new and a bit scary for him, everyday household noises might startle him at first. He needs an understanding, patient family who will let him settle in at his own pace.Blaze is a massive fan of toys and loves nothing more than playtime! However, like a true Lab, he can get a bit too enthusiastic—especially when it comes to tennis balls. Because he gets a little over-excited with them, his new owners will need to manage his ball games safely and swap them for chunkier, sturdier toys that can handle his enthusiasm.Blaze is looking for a quiet, predictable environment where he can build up his confidence. Here is what his dream home looks like:Location: A quiet, rural, or semi-rural area. Busy, built-up towns will be too overwhelming for him right now.Garden: A private, securely enclosed garden is a must so he can safely play with his toys and burn off energy.Company: He needs owners who are around most of the day. He will need time to adjust and a patient routine to slowly build up the time he can be left alone.Children: He can live with kids of secondary school age (12 years plus), provided they are used to dogs and comfortable around a bouncy, enthusiastic boy.Other Pets: Blaze absolutely loves other dogs! However, to help him focus on his training and settling in, he needs to be the only pet in the home. His new family should definitely keep him well-socialized with walking buddies.Staff Tip: At 2 years old, Blaze is the perfect mix of mature and playful. With a bit of time, patience, and some fun, structured toy training, he is going to make an incredibly loyal, loving, and rewarding companion.

More Information

Surrey’s commuter towns and access to countryside mean rescue dogs are often matched with working households and active adopters. Dogs adopted here may be suited to busy routines balanced with structured exercise and companionship. Many Surrey-based rescues focus on careful matching to ensure dogs can cope with time alone and daily schedules. Adopting locally supports long-term success for dogs and owners alike.
