Jacob is a 5-year-old Greyhound who finished his racing career and is now looking for a loving home where he can relax and enjoy the next chapter of his life.

 

With his calm and quiet nature, Jacob is proving to be a sensitive soul who craves companionship and love. Someone will be very lucky to have him in their life. 

Jacob arrived at the shelter alongside Cracker, his kennel mate.   It’s clear that Jacob gets along well with other dogs of similar size, and he’s adjusting to his new surroundings with a quiet grace.  

 

Cracker has gone into foster and poor Jacob is waiting. He’s clean in his kennel and walks beautifully on a lead—no pulling, just a calm and steady pace.

He seems good around other dogs but careful introductions will still be needed.  He really needs a home as he has spent 5 years in racing kennels.

 

For now, we can already tell that Jacob is going to make a wonderful companion for the right family.

If you think you could offer Jacob the loving home he deserves, please fill in our online application form. He’s ready to begin his new adventure, and we can’t wait to help him find his perfect match!

Info:  

Bruce came to us through no fault of his own and has gone straight into foster.  

 

Here is what his Foster Mum has to say :- 

Bruce is a  bundle of fun and still very much a puppy. He’s full of personality, absolutely hilarious, and loves being involved in whatever you’re doing.

He’s doing brilliantly with house training. Apart from one accident in his crate on the first day, he’s been clean ever since thanks to a good routine. He understands what’s expected, especially when he gets praise (which he loves).

 

He is crate trained and sleeps great in his crate - he may bark for a minute or two, then settles quickly. He can be left in his crate for a few hours (after a wee and poop first) and stays clean while you’re out.

Bruce loves everyone and everything — he’s both cat-friendly and child-friendly. He adores toys, enjoys his walks (as long as it’s not raining!), and in the evenings his favourite thing is curling up on the sofa to watch TV with you. He’ll happily be your little shadow.

I work from home and he’s brilliant at settling — pop him on a chair by the window and he’ll quietly watch the world go by like it’s TV.

 

He’s very food-motivated and tends to inhale his meals, so smaller, regular feeds work best. Treats and praise are his love language.

He’s a bright pup and has learned so much just by watching my other dog, he has loads of potential to keep learning.

Remember Bruce is a puppy so we are looking for someone who is committed to his ongoing training and understands how full on puppies can be.  If you think you could offer Bruce the loving home he deserves, please fill in our online application form. He’s ready to begin his new adventure, and we can’t wait to help him find his perfect match!  He will need neutering when old enough - this is non negotiable and proof will be re

Age: 6  years

Breed: Greyhound

Dog Friendly : Yes 

Cat Friendly:  No

Kids :  Older

Neutered :  Yes 

Vaccinations:  Yes

ALL OUR DOGS WILL COME WITH 5 WEEKS FREE INSURANCE THROUGH AGRIA. ​

Info:  

 

Hank has been with us a while, he is a beautiful big lad born on July 4th, 2019, who’s now ready to trade in his racing days for a comfy bed and a loving forever home.  

 

Breaks our heart to think such a beautiful soul has spent 6 years locked up - he deserves his own home asap - he has done his time behind bars he has earn't the right to be loved and to have the comforts of a home. 


He’s a big guy and might unintentionally bump smaller kids in his excitement so older kids are preferable.


Hank is a gentle, loving, and eager to please. This boy thrives on affection and would love nothing more than to be doted on.

After spending the first six years of his life in racing kennels, Hank has finally had a taste of home life – and he’s taking to it like he’s always belonged.

Now living with three other greyhounds in foster care, Hank has shown just how ready he is to leave his past behind and step into the life he truly deserves.

 

His foster mum describes him as :-

“an absolute sweetheart” who’s settled in beautifully from day one."

“He’s just fitted in like he’s always been here, it breaks my heart to think such a beautiful soul has spent six years locked up. He’s done his time behind bars – he’s earned the right to be loved and to have the comforts of a home.

Hank has quickly mastered the art of being a house dog. He’s crate-trained, house-trained, respectful with the other greyhounds, and a connoisseur of all things soft and comfy. He’s already discovered the sofa (and yes, it’s now his throne), and he absolutely loves a comfy bed.

He’s gentle, laid-back, and thrives on affection. At heart, Hank is a big softie who wants nothing more than to be close to his humans and feel part of a family. 

Hank is the kind of dog that changes your life with his quiet loyalty and soulful eyes. He’s eager to please, easy to love, and more than ready to find a forever home that will love him back just as much.

Hank is more than just a good dog—he’s a once-in-a-lifetime kind of companion, and whoever welcomes him home will be gaining a loyal, laid-back best friend.

💙 If you’ve got space in your heart (and on your sofa) for a big, lovable boy who’s ready to be your shadow, Hank is waiting to meet you.

He is vaccinated, microchipped and flea and worm treated. He is also neutered.

Lifetime rescue backup. And can rehome U.K. wide.

❤️Jimmy Mac❤️ - A Gentle Soul Looking for His Forever Home

Sex:  Male

Age: 3 years 9 months

Breed: Westie Cross

Dog Friendly : Yes 

Cat Friendly:  No

Kids :  Older

Neutered :  No

Vaccinations:  Yes

ALL OUR DOGS WILL COME WITH 5 WEEKS FREE INSURANCE THROUGH AGRIA. ​

Info:  

 

Jimmy Mac is a 3 years and 9 months old Westie cross with a sweet, sensitive nature who is looking for a calm and understanding home to call his own.

Sadly, Jimmy Mac has recently been returned through no fault of his own, after taking a dislike to his male owner. This decision was not made lightly, and Jimmy Mac is now back in foster care with Julia and Mei who fostered him originally.  They have shared the following insight into this lovely little boy.

Jimmy Mac is a quiet, kind dog who enjoys his walks and loves affection, but he’s equally happy having some downtime in his basket. He’s very loving and enjoys cuddles, often hopping onto your knee just to be close and feel loved. He’s fully housetrained. He is a lot better with ladies in the home than men. Men seem to frighten him. 

As a terrier, Jimmy Mac does have a prey drive and will chase cats, chickens, and is very keen on spotting rabbits while out walking, so a home without small furries would be essential.

 

He is dog-friendly and gets along well with other dogs, enjoying playtime with his canine friends, though he would also be perfectly happy as an only dog.

He has been fostered around older children and has done well, but has not met younger children, so we feel a home with children aged 6+ would suit him best.

Jimmy Mac enjoys pottering around the garden with you, sharing that quiet companionship, but he’s always ready for a good walk too. He has started recall training and is making progress, though this is still a work in progress. He barks very little, but will let you know if someone comes to the door.

We don’t know much about Jimmy Mac’s past, and it’s clear that loud noises, shouting, or sudden movements can frighten him. When startled, he will seek comfort and safety in his basket. Because of this, Jimmy Mac needs a patient, calm home where he can continue to build his confidence at his own pace.

 

Jimmy Mac is neutered, vaccinated, dog-friendly, and ready to find a home full of love, understanding, and kindness. In return, he will reward the right adopter with endless affection and quiet companionship.

💙 If you’ve got space in your heart Jimmy Mac is waiting to meet you.

He is vaccinated, microchipped and flea and worm treated. He isnt neutered yet.

💜Jen💜  Looking for Love & a Quiet Place to Bloom

ADOPTION ON HOLD TILL SHES READY. APPLICATIONS STILL BEING TAKEN. ​

Sex: Female

Age: nearly 3 years old

Breed: Corgi cross

Dog Friendly: Yes

Cat Friendly: possibly

Kids: Much older or None

Neutered: Yes

Vaccinations: Yes

Microchipped: yes

​ALL OUR DOGS WILL COME WITH 5 WEEKS FREE INSURANCE THROUGH AGRIA. ​

Info:  

Jen came into our care through another rescue and hasn’t had the easiest start in life. Because of this, she can be very nervous, especially around new people and in new situations.

 

More detailed information will be discussed with potential adopters once they have progressed through the full adoption process.

Jen would benefit from having a quiet confident dog in the home to help her adjust and to show her the world is not a scary place.   She is a very sweet girl who just needs some time and understanding to adapt.

 

We’re unsure whether she has ever lived in a home, so she may need some initial housetraining — but she is a quick learner and highly food-motivated, which will help her settle in.

Jen is looking for a calm, quiet home with another friendly dog of a similar size. Older children (or none) would be best due to her nervous nature. She needs someone patient, understanding, and willing to give her the time she needs to blossom.

Jen is such a lovely, soft-natured girl, we are determined to find her the perfect home where she will be truly loved.

If you'd like to offer Jen a forever home, please fill in our online application form. If you’re successful you will receive an email from us (please check your spam), have a home check, then we invite you to meet the dog.

💜Betty💜  A little sweetheart looking for some love

 ​

Sex: Female

Age: 7 - 8 yrs

Breed: Beagle 

Dog Friendly: Yes

Cat Friendly: Not tested

Kids: Much older or None

Neutered: Will be 

Vaccinations: Will be 

Microchipped: Will be 

​ALL OUR DOGS WILL COME WITH 5 WEEKS FREE INSURANCE THROUGH AGRIA. ​

Info:  

Betty is a beautiful 7–8 year old Beagle who came into our care after being sadly abandoned and taken into the pound. After serving her 7 days, we stepped in to offer her rescue and a second chance at the loving home she deserves.

We don’t know much about Betty’s past, but it’s clear she has been someone’s much-loved pet. She is a friendly, affectionate girl who enjoys human company and seems comfortable around other dogs. She’s quite active and enjoys her walks — true to her Beagle nature, she loves to use her nose and can be vocal when excited!

Betty knows some basic commands and is clean in her kennel. She can pull on the lead a bit but we are sure she will settle once she gets out and about more often. She would suit a home with older children aged 8+ and may be able to live with another dog.

Betty has not been tested with cats, so we are looking for a cat-free home (and no small furries, please).

 

As we get to know Betty better, we’ll update her profile with more information. For now, she’s proving to be a lovely, affectionate girl who will make a fantastic companion for the right home.

Could you be the one to give Betty the happy ending she deserves? 💜🐾

If you'd like to offer Betty a forever home, please fill in our online application form. If you’re successful you will receive an email from us (please check your spam), have a home check, then we invite you to meet the dog.

💜Grace💜  Full of Life and Love 

 ​

Sex: Female

Age: 2 yrs

Breed:  Tibetan Mastiff

Dog Friendly: Yes

Cat Friendly: No

Kids: Much older or None

Neutered: YES

Vaccinations: YES

Microchipped: YES

​ALL OUR DOGS WILL COME WITH 5 WEEKS FREE INSURANCE THROUGH AGRIA. ​

Info:  

Grace is a stunning 2-year-old Tibetan Mastiff who came into our care after being abandoned and taken into the pound. After serving her 7 days, we were able to offer her rescue and the chance of a much brighter future.

Although we don’t know much about Grace’s past, she has shown herself to be a very friendly, affectionate, and loving girl.

 

When she arrived, her coat was in terrible condition — extremely matted in places, with some mats the size of tennis balls and tight to the skin. Due to this, parts of her coat had to be shaved. She was also very skinny and malnourished.

 

Grace will need regular, ongoing grooming to ensure her coat is never allowed to become matted again. Our groomer Lisa did an amazing job with her and absolutely adores her.

Grace is on the smaller side for a Tibetan Mastiff, only 33.6kg in weight. but she has a big personality! She is bouncy, playful, and full of character. She seems okay around other dogs but would be happiest as the only dog in the home, as she loves having all the attention — a true diva at heart.

She knows some basic commands but will need a home willing to continue her training. Grace can be strong on the lead, though she does settle on walks and then happily plods along. She would be best suited to a home with older children aged 12+, as her playful and bouncy nature could easily knock over younger children.

Grace has not been tested with cats, so we are looking for a cat-free home, with no small furries. She is clean in her kennel and would thrive in a home with previous hands-on experience owning mastiffs, not just walking or meeting them.

Grace is a special girl who has clearly had a rough start, but she has so much love to give. With the right experienced home, she will make a loyal and devoted companion. 💜🐾

If you'd like to offer Grace a forever home, please fill in our online application form. If you’re successful you will receive an email from us (please check your spam), have a home check, then we invite you to meet the dog.
