Beautiful Lily is described as the best behaved and gentlest Staffy lady ever. She’s good with all people and always willing to please. She needs a quiet home with older children and no other pets. She’s such a sweet and loving lady.

Please also consider our Overlooked Oldies- the dogs who have been patiently waiting for new homes longest of all. They desperately need homes of their own! You can submit an oldie for listing by our site editors here .
We also have some non-oldie dogs who need very special homes due to mental or physical problems, listed in Other Special Dogs Needing Homes. Please consider them!
If you are planning to adopt a dog and already own cats, you may want to read our article Dogs and Cats.
Alfie & Rocky (Ark Animal Rescue, Lincolnshire coast)
Alfie & Rocky are the best of friends and need a home together. Before you rush to contact the Ark, ask yourself if you could happily and kindly deal with toileting accidents as little Rocky has a health issue leading to poor bladder control, and Alfie also has accidents. They are wonderful, friendly dogs.
No frenzies with Shenzie! (Oldies Club, fostered Norfolk)
The information we received from Shenzie’s foster carer makes her sound pretty much perfect. If you’re looking for a gem of an older lady to share your home and walks with, Shenzie could be the one!
Alfie (Jerry Green Dog Rescue, South Lincolnshire)
Sweet old Alfie has led a sheltered life and needs a quiet home with a nice garden. He wants you to be around most of the time, especially while he settles, as he is scared of new places, bless him. Could you offer Alfie a home as your only pet?
Butch (1 Dog at a Time Rescue UK, Northamptonshire)
Poor Butch has had a terrible life, right here in the UK. He is recovering well and discovering that life can be fun. He is good with quiet, neutered female dogs but needs a home without cats. Could you offer big Butch the happiest times of his life?
Suki (Freshfields Animal Rescue, Liverpool)
Suki is a lovely lady but typical of her breed she’s as stubborn as she is amusing and loyal. She wants an adult only home as an only pet, owners she can dote on and a sofa to look splendid on. Is that too much to ask?
Thor (Cheltenham Animal Shelter, Gloucestershire)
If you want a doting companion who’s easy on the eye and doesn’t need long walks, than look no further. Thor needs a relaxing retirement without having to deal with other pets, children or much in the way of comings and goings. He’s a home-body and a soppy-head!
Sasha (Wellingborough Dog Welfare, Northants)
Sasha is an affectionate and loving bundle of super staffy energy. She might be 10 but she still needs lots of walks and fun times. Sasha needs to be your only pet and can only be rehomed locally to Northants due to current restrictions.
Danny (Freshfields Animal Rescue, Liverpool)
Gorgeous boy Danny is a Lurcher cross who loves cuddles once he’s got to know you. He’s quite shy and sensitive so he needs understanding, experienced owners. He wants to be the only pet in an adult only home. He’ll be an adorably soppy best friend!
Jet & Sasha – Lovely, loving lurchers! (Oldies Club, fostered Lincolnshire)
Sweet lurchers, Jet and Sasha, are utterly devoted to one another. Their foster carer says they have been no trouble at all. Good with dogs and older children, they need a home without cats. Who could resist this delightful duo?!
George (Jerry Green Dog Rescue, South Lincs.)
George is a gorgeous boy who simply wants to be loved and cared for. He needs an adult-only, pet-free home and would love to spend most of his time with you. Could you help this dear old boy?
Morgan (Safe Rescue, fostered Norfolk)
Dear old Morgan is gentle and timid. He has many worries but is slowly getting used to people being kind. He’s too nervy to be around children. He needs experienced rescue dog owners and at least one other dog to help his confidence. He loves walkies, food and naps!
Maud (Safe Rescue, fostered Norfolk)
Maud can be “moody Maud” after being chained outside for 10 years in Romania. She enjoys a potter and is looking for a cosy, adult home. She gets on okay with cats but doesn’t want other dogs on her patch. She deserves a good life now.
Jackson (Freshfields Animal Rescue, Liverpool)
This dear little boy is a bit of a worrywart. He wants an experienced owner who is at home most of the time and likes to have help or moral support with everything they do, plus plenty of snuggle time. His retirement home must be very peaceful so he feels safe as well as loved.
Nikita (Carla Lane Animals In Need, Liverpool)
Nikita loves chicken, toys and a fuss (but only when she says so!). She’s good with other dogs on walks but won’t share her home (i.e. toys) with other pets or children. She’s a lady who knows her own mind and needs an experienced owner with a sense of humour.
Franky (RADAR Dog Rescue, South Yorrkshire)
Everybody loves Franky because he’s such a kissy, cuddly, fun-loving lad! He gets on well with other dogs and could live with one, but not cats (fun to chase) or children (easily bowled over). Franky loves life! If only he had a human of his own to share it with…
Tia & Jack (East Anglia Dog Rescue, Ipswich)
These cutie-pies are looking for a home within East Anglia where they’ll have a human for cuddles, walkies and to buy toys. A sofa to snuggle up on would be nice too! They want to be the only pets in an adult only home. Do you want two adoring best friends?
Roxy (Cheltenham Animal Shelter, Gloucestershire)
Roxy is a sweet Bull Mastiff girl who loves people. She needs an adult home as your only pet. A countryside home would be perfect as she needs walks away from other dogs. Could you help this big girl be happy again?
Gino (Greyhound Trust Nottingham)
Easy-going Gino is a lovely, placid boy who’s had a limited life so far. He needs owners who will show him all the love, walks and soft furnishings life has to offer. He’s a poised and gentle soul who still likes to play. He is simply beautiful!
