Category: Adopt An Oldie
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.
Jax (Good Life Dog Rescue, South Yorkshire)
Jax’s elderly owner died. Jax waited in kennels. He found a home. Working hours changed and he was extremely stressed alone. Back in kennels, Jax needs a home with company all day and minimal car travel. A big ask, but big Jax is worth it.

Nancy is a tiny little Staffy girl who walks like a dream on the lead. She would be an ideal companion for an older person who can take her for regular walks. Cheeky Nancy is so sweet and she loves to be the centre of attention.

Sweet and affectionate Esme wants to be someone’s best friend and is very unhappy in kennels. She deserves so much more from life. She’d like to have your company most of the time and simply be cherished.
