It was a very sad day for Mimi’s elderly owner when he had to give her up because of his ill health. He was reassured though by knowing that Mimi would be safe and happy with us and that we would do our best to find her a new loving home. Mimi is an exceptionally […]
Donny has now found a fabulous new home – thanks for the happy ending folks! Would you ever find a more lovable young labrador than Donny? I doubt it. He looked very different when he first came in as a stray – it was pouring with rain and he was very thin, wet and bedraggled. […]
Gina is a staffi stray who, like most staffis, loves food. She is easy to train because she’ll do almost anything for a titbit. Not that she is pushy or greedy, she takes her treats politely and then says ‘one more, pleeeze!’ Mmmm! That was good! Gina is a small staffi with little legs, a […]
Benson is bright and alert and a most charming individual. Alright, so he may be a bit middle aged but that means he’s well behaved and learned all his manners many dog years ago. He’s a small medium sized chap with a nice brindle coat and grey markings on his face. He looks to be […]
Jackson now has a new home – thank you. Jackson looks like a typical border collie, black and white, well marked with a tail that’s always wagging and an alert and intelligent face. The only thing that’s different about him is his size. If he’s a border collie then he’s a miniature! Jackson is only […]
Lovable Laddie – When a stray dog comes in to us there is always a period of time when we evaluate them, assess their personality and find out if they have any health problems. Laddie, a whippet x shown above, looked fine except for being very thin and underdeveloped. He certainly has a lovely temperament […]
When strays come in we first of all give them time to settle. We have to try to communicate with them while they learn to understand us. Usually they are better than we are! They get to know the routine, the walks, the other dogs, the house rules. We check them […]
It was really cold when Louie came back to see us at the weekend but that didn’t bother this great little Jack Russell because he was wrapped up warm in a camo jacket with his hood up. No frozen ears for this little dog! Short coated dogs feel the cold when they are […]
‘I am so pleased to see you!’ Mr. Softy’s original owner and breeder found her dog again after checking in to our website. She was over the moon to recognise her dog who is actually called Dax. When she came to fetch him we all agreed that Mr.Softy suited him just as well […]
All of our permanent sanctuary residents are available for sponsorship – a yearly donation of £10.00 helps with their care and you are welcome to come and see them and bring treats. Your ‘adopted’ cat will usually get to know you and look forward to your visits, especially if you bring pouches or chopped chicken! […]
