BreedDachshund

Are you right for Angel?Angel is a sweet yet shy 9-year-old Dachshund. She can be worried by the big wide world but given time and patience she would make a great little companion. She would prefer a quiet and calm household, so we are looking for an adult only home without too many comings and goings. Due to Angel being shy to begin with, we are looking for adopters that live close enough to the centre for her to have multiple visits. Angel will need an enclosed garden to help her during her settling in period.

WELCOME THE ADORABLE FIZZ. ONE BABY GIRL STAFFY CROSS LURCHER MIX.This beautiful young lady is now called Fizz. Fizz has come into our care from a Yorkshire stray kennels. She is adorable, very sweet natured and just a baby of approx eight months. Fizz has been health checked by our vets as a priority and started her vaccinations. She is now microchipped, treated for fleas and worms and just about ready to find the love of her life. Is that you? She has passed a full health check and adores being cuddled and fussed by everyone that crosses her path. Fizz is dog friendly, adores attention and could possibly live with a kind natured male dog that is neutered. She adores Dennis at the kennels. Fizz is amazing despite a cruel abandonment and a short stint in the stray kennels. She has already made incredible progress in our care and despite being very young she is calm and will lay down quietly after a fuss and her walk. She is extremely friendly, very very pretty and deserves a new start as soon as possible. Please read below to see what sort of home Fizz needs.WHAT HOME DOES FIZZ NEED? PLEASE SUPPORT.Fizz needs a dedicated and very loving home. She will need energy burn offs, an enclosed garden and someone who loves to go walking. She is extremely friendly and could possibly live with another dog that is very good natured. Fizz is possibly a mixed breed and a lurcher combination. We are now searching for a new home for Fizz where she will have plenty of company. Due to her young age we feel she needs extra time with humans during the day. Being left as lonely dogs is definitely not suitable for very young dogs and puppies. They need extra mental stimulation and energy burn offs. Company, guidance and extra training is all part of owning a young dog. We ensure she finds her perfect love match. Fizz would make a great family dog with older children as she is very affectionate and sweet in many ways.

INTRODUCING ONE LUCKY YOUNG MAN NOW NAMED MORRIS. WELCOME ANOTHER SAD STAFFY CROSS.Morris came into our care on 24th December 2025 from a Yorkshire stray kennels. Through no fault of his own and a shocking sad fact in todays society this youngster was booked into to be put to sleep. Morris has not done anything wrong except be born into what some may say the wrong skin. This loving and very friendly dog is a Staffy cross. He is approximately ten months old and was abandoned and unwanted. He is adorable and loves cuddles and human contact. He is extremely playful, full of joy and has a spice for life as any pup would oen. We welcome him with open arms and a very big heart along with so many of our other dogs who sadly were all in the same dilemma. Morris has been health check by our vets and is now embarking on a new lease of life. He is learning to enjoy the outside world and we are working on his lead training. Although Morris barks initially at other dogs in excitement once introduced he has been amazing and his instant excitement is defused. He loves to play and has recently been out walking with Shellie who also found herself with an uncertain future at the stray kennels due to being another Staffy cross. Morris is beautiful, a real sweetheart baby and has so much to live for. Please read below to find our what sort of home our new delicious young man requires. We welcome support and adoption enquiries. All our dogs are loving and friendly and deserve to find true rescue adopters.WHAT HOME DOES BEAUTIFUL MORRIS NEED?Morris is now looking for a much need new start with someone that adores Staffies and cross breed Staffies. Experience of owning a dog would be beneficial. This boy will warm your heart and soul. Due to being a pup Morris will need more training and guidance as he grows. He adores people and is very puppy like so more training will be needed over the next few months. This handsome chap knows all his basic commands and we feel with the right committed human he will blossom even more. He has already shown he has love and loyalty to give and the ability to learn quickly. Morris could potentially live with a very good natured female spayed dog. We would consider rehoming him within a family home with older children only. A home where someone can offer company is essential. Very young dogs easily become bored so it is important that time is given to Morris and he knows he is not alone. If you work long hours and would leave Morris or any of our young dogs for long periods then this would not be suitable. Morris is gorgeous in every way. We are overjoyed that Morris found a lifeline at our charity on the eleventh hour. Morris is adorable and has everything to live for and so much to offer. His life could of ended on 24th December and we are blessed to have him in our care. Please consider the strays of Yorkshire. It is important we match our dogs with people lifestyles. We help a huge amount of stray dogs from Yorkshire pounds. Anyone wishing to discuss any dogs or needing more information about our charity and the work we do then please telephone for an informal chat or email us via our adopt button on this page with details about yourself and the dog you are enquiring about. Lifestyle details are important when considering adoption. All our rescue dogs have different needs. Good Life Dog Rescue exists without staff and few dedicated, passionate volunteers. Please support through adoption. We have a huge volume of dogs now in our care and welcome interest.PLEASE COMPLETE AN APPLICATION FORM WITH ESSENTIAL DETAILS ABOUT YOURSELF BY CLICKING ON THE ADOPT ME BUTTON.

Bear

West Yorkshire
SexMale
Age2 years
BreedLabrador

Are you right for Bear?Bear is a handsome 1yr old Labradoodle who is looking for a new home. He's led a very sheltered life so far and will need patient adopters who are ready to do lots of training and confidence building with him. He's already come a long way and is a fun and friendly boy. He should be fine with older kids who understand when to let him relax and if they're confident around bouncy, playful dogs. Due to the need for many visits to the centre and to get to know him, his home must be within a 1hr drive of the Leeds rehoming centre.

Are you right for Benji?Benji is a handsome 4yr old Pug who is looking for a new family who enjoy being around bubbly little dogs. He's super friendly and generally a little ball of energy. He'll be fine with older kids who are confident around giddy, playful dogs. He's been fine around other dogs so could potentially share with a similar dog to himself as long as they get on well. He was house trained in his previous home but may need a little refresher as he settles into a new home.

West Yorkshire

BreedCrossbreed

URGENT APPEAL FOR BENSON. ONE GORGEOUS LARGE BREED CROSS BREED. THE SWEETEST BOY.This adorable handsome cross breed is Benson. He is such a sweet boy with a big heart. Since her arrived two weeks ago (10th Feb 2026) poor Benson has not received many sideways glances. He is one affectionate boy and of the larger variety. Benson came to us from the stray kennels as an emergency when the block he was on became extremely full. Unfortunately nobody came to collect Benson so Benny came to us as an urgent request from the dog warden. This boy has a sweet and loving nature and is extremely happy to be cuddled by all people. Benson almost falls asleep in your arms. Benson has shown no issues with other dogs on his walks and has so much love to give. He adores playtimes and running however we have yet to capture him smiling on camera. His photos do not do justice to this stunning and beautiful boy. Benson goes out walking with other dogs and he has been no trouble. He is extremely clean in kennels and despite being a little sad at the moment he has coped with being homeless very well. This said we would love to find Benny a new start as soon as possible. CAN YOU HELP? PLEASE CONSIDER THE LARGER BOYS AND GIRLS.WHAT HOME DOES BENSON NEED?Benson loves his walks and being with people. Somewhere in this dogs life there has been care, TLC and love. What has happened? We will never know and sadly we always need to move forward to find these dogs a new life. Most of the dogs at Good Life are from local stray kennels and they remain our priority. We feel their pain and loss of their home and often a cruel abandonment. Benson would love a home with company and regular exercise. He desperately craves human contact and as always our aim is to find him just that. Benson has been great with other dogs however he is a large dog and many smaller pets will find him intimidating. Benson is now six years old and needs a new life with plenty of company. He deserves happiness and to find someone that just loves larger breed dogs. Benson is castrated and will be vaccinated, treated for fleas and worms. He is now more than ready to meet any potential adopters yet he hardly ever receives a sideways glance or the interest he deserves. WE AIM FOR THE STARS AT GOOD LIFE EVERY DAY. BIG DOGS NEED LOVE TOO AND ARE OFTEN THE LAST HOMELESS HOUNDS TO FIND THEIR SPECIAL PEOPLE. ARE YOU BENSON'S SPECIAL PEOPLE?We have many amazing dogs that have fallen on very sad times and found themselves homeless and unwanted at stray kennels and in terrible situations. All of them are deserving of a new start and a special home. Please consider our rescue dogs for adoption today. Many of them struggle terribly with isolation and a kennel environment and own a broken heart. We endeavour to fix their empty hearts and broken soul. Our adopters remain our lifeline. Please support adoption. Calls are welcome to discuss any of our ladies and gents.
