This sweet old gent is affectionate with those he knows but it takes him a while to trust. He has never lived in a proper home but, at 12 years of age, he would dearly love an adult-only home, soft furnishings and a nicely sedentary lifestyle. He loves to snooze!
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.
Rio (DNV Save Animals, fostered Southern Scotland)
Rio has something to smile about now that he’s being well cared for in the UK. Imagine how happy he’ll be when you adopt him! He’s a sweet-natured boy who loves gentle walks and tummy tickles. Gorgeous!
Rasta (Dumfries & Galloway Canine Rescue)
This cheerful, loving boy is such a star! He’s enthusiastic about all the important things in life. Rasta wants to be the only pet at home and generally ignores other dogs. He can live with children from age 12. He’s playful, funny and cuddly. Could he be your best friend?
Joy (Dumfries & Galloway Canine Rescue)
Sweet but sassy Joy is affectionate with her people, although she prefers men to women. She wants an adult-only home with no other pets. She’s OK with most dogs on walks. She’s an adorable little lady who is partial to treats and loves her toys!
Iza (Saving & Rehoming Strays, Scotland)
Iza has missed out on social interaction, but has quickly become more confident and she loves cuddles! She can be rehomed with her brother Mischu, but if rehomed on her own she needs to be your only pet. Could you offer her love and patience?
Mischu (Saving & Rehoming Strays, Scotland)
Mischu has missed out on socialisation so is taking his time to relax and feel happier around people. He can be rehomed with his sister Iza, but if rehomed on his own he needs to be your only pet. Could you help Mischu?
