- All Dogs Available for Adoption
Barney – 16 month old male Labrador Retriever
Barney is a 16 month old male Labrador Retriever. Barney was sadly handed him into the rescue by a single mum as she felt he was too much for her with a young child. He has been around young children but she could not offer him the time he needed. He seems to be a lovely but untrained young dog. His new owners will have to give him some basic training and look forward to then enjoying many years with a wonderful canine family member.
Storm – 2 year old male Border Collie
Storm is a 2 year old male Border Collie, Storm has had a bad start, he has no confidence and is extremely shy. We have not experienced any aggression towards either humans or dogs. Storm is looking for a very special home. Someone who understands how to appreciate the companionship that Storm can give at the same time allowing him space and time to gain his confidence. Ideally someone experienced with collies.
Rio – 2 year old male Staffordshire Bull Terrier
Rio is a 2 year old male Staffordshire Bull Terrier. Rio was transferred to us from our vets as he was sent there to be put to sleep. His owner kept him in a flat with no room and he was not exercised. There are some old wounds on him where he has not been looked after properly.
Our vet noticed a bad tooth causing him pain which they extracted. At the same time they neutered him. He is a real gentle giant, he loves cuddles, he is below knee height but a strong lad, he is very underweight. Rio would be suited to someone who can spend some time with him, give him plenty of exercise and treat him with tender loving care that he deserves.
Smithy – 2 year old male English Bull Terrier Cross
This handsome boy is Smithy, he is a 2 year old male English Bull Terrier Cross. Smithy came to us via another rescue centre as a stray, so unfortunately we have no previous history about him. He responds well to calm consistent handling and his training is progressing well. Smithy will however need experienced dog owners to enable him to reach his full potential. He is suitable to live with older mature children that are able to adapt to his training requirements. He is currently unsuitable to live with cats as he is too fixated on them at present. He is also being assessed around other dogs daily.
Poppy – 5 year old female Fell Terrier Cross
Poppy is a beautiful female tan and white 5 year old female Fell Terrier Cross. Poppy came to the centre as a stray so unfortunately we have no previous history about her. Poppy is wary of strangers initially (she is improving daily with this!!) but once she knows & trusts you she is your true friend for life!!!
Due to her nervousness of new people, the home we are seeking for this princess is a quiet home with children aged 16 & over who are calm, confident & used to dogs. Poppy strikes the perfect balance between lap dog & active go-getter terrier. She would prefer to be the only pet in the household so her new family can concentrate on her & her training.
Archie – 6 year old male Boston Terrier Cross
This handsome chap is Archie, he is a 6 year old male Boston Terrier Cross. Archie is incredibly affectionate & loving & enjoys doing plenty of exercise. He just loves being with people & having lots of attention. Archie is currently under assessment with other dogs, he would probably prefer to be the only dog in the household. He would prefer not to live with cats as he will chase them. He is ok to live with children aged 6 and older who are confident and used to dogs.
Archie is a very sensitive boy & is incredibly loyal.

Marley is a 1 year old male Cross-Breed with some hound and mastiff in him. Marley came to the centre as a stray so unfortunately we have no previous history if he has lived in a home or not. Marley would be best suited as an only dog although we would consider homing him with another dog, providing the home has sufficient experience with adolescent dogs.
He is suitable to live with “hands on” confident children aged 14 years and over who are used to handling dogs and are willing to participate in his training. Marley is super affectionate & loves a good back scratch. He will need to attend training classes on a regular basis as he needs to learn how to control his excitement with both dogs & people. He knows most basic commands but sometimes chooses to forget them just to test his handler!!
