Dogs Available for Adoption

These adorable pups (yes, we call them all pups... because they finally get a chance to live the carefree life of puppies when they come to us) are available for adoption. If you are interested in giving any of them a loving home, please complete our Adoption Application.

Once we receive your application, we will have a chat with you to tell you more about the dog, and to find out more about you and your household. We'll also tell you what the next steps are.

Millie & Tess

10 Years

Millie (Black) & Tess (Black & White) are Shar Pei x Collie sisters who have never been apart so we’d love to find them a home together. We would adjust our normal adoption donation to make this possible and will consider an adoption or long term foster home anywhere in the south of England. Please complete an application form to discuss this further with us.

These lovely girls were sadly surrendered to us due to their elderly owner no longer being able to care for them. They love a fuss from all the volunteers, enjoy their walks and freedom field adventures. They are clean indoors and settle well so can be left for periods of time. They are spayed and fully vaccinated.
