NOODLES IS OUR OLD DOG OF THE WEEK!

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.
Pansy (Safe Rescue, fostered Norfolk)
Pansy is a very sweet, small Crossbreed rescued from Romania and looking for a quiet home with no young children. She’s living happily with other dogs and a cat and needs a patient owner who will help her gain confidence.
Opie (Cheltenham Animal Shelter, Gloucestershire)
Opie is a soppy, goofy boy whose main hobby is making people laugh with his silly antics. He wants to be the only pet in an adult only home, with owners who are understanding of his nervousness of strangers. He doesn’t need much exercise. Just lots of love and fun!
Little Miss Misty (Oldies Club, fostered Surrey)
Misty is a typically cute Jack Russell who is independent, fun and intelligent. She thoroughly enjoys her walks and is good on the lead. She loves playing with a squeaky toy, chasing a football around the garden (she’s a brilliant dribbler!) and snuggling up on the sofa when sleepy. Misty is wonderful company.
Joey (Cheltenham Animal Shelter, Gloucestershire)
Just because you’re small and cute doesn’t mean you want fuss from everyone. Extreme cuteness is little Joey’s cross to bear. He’s a sovereign being in his own right and needs a human companion who respects this. He’s a lovely, undemanding old boy. Treats, yes. Fusses, no thank you.
Lovely lady Lucy! (Oldies Club, fostered North Yorkshire)
Lucy is a shy, sweet and undemanding lady who is very active when out but likes to sleep wrapped in blankets on the sofa when at home. She takes time to get to know you. You will need to be patient, but Lucy’s certainly worth it!
Smiler (Safe Rescue, fostered Norfolk)
Like his name, Smiler is a happy, bouncy Corgi/Terrier Cross who has a zest for life and a sense of fun. He would like a doggy friend in his new home and loves going out for walks. Smiler has huge potential and loves to be around people.
Polar (Safe Rescue, fostered Basingstoke)
Although a little shy, Polar has the makings of a loving and loyal companion. He’s a gentle, quiet Crossbreed who can live with or without other dogs. Polar just loves having a soft bed and his food!
Thor (Cheltenham Animal Shelter, Gloucestershire)
Thor is a stunning, grey and white Malamute who’s a big, lovable goofball with those he knows. He’s looking for a rural, adult home with access to a garden to potter in and where his owner has experience with this breed. Isn’t he gorgeous?
Jackson (Freshfields Animal Rescue, Liverpool)
Jackson was very worried to find himself in rescue. He needs an experienced owner used to nervous, anxious dogs. You’ll need to be kind, gentle and understanding. A quiet, one-person home, as your only pet, with few visitors and no children at any time is what this little chap needs.
Duchess (Safe Rescue, fostered Norfolk)
Gorgeous Duchess is slowly flourishing in her foster home after years in a dreadful Romanian shelter. She’s looking for a quiet, rural home, preferably with another calm dog, but will need time to realise that life can be happy. Could you be her special person?
Acer & Missy (Foal Farm, Kent)
The only thing better than adopting an oldie is adopting two oldies! Acer and Missy are the best of friends and need to stay together. Acer follows Missy around and looks up to her. Bless! They’d like to be your only pets but can live with children aged 12+
Skyla (Rescue Remedies, kennelled Gatwick)
This beautiful semi-Lab lady is extremely affectionate and will interrupt walkies time to ask for a cuddle! She could live with another friendly dog. She loves meeting people and getting fuss from everyone she can. She also loves rolling in the grass and basking in the sunshine!
Lucky Diddy Dotty! (Oldies Club, fostered Edinburgh)
Dotty was found on a motorway and luckily rescued. She needs a quiet home with company most of the time and walks to suit the mood she’s in on a particular day. A walk in the evening will tire her and help her settle better at night.
Lennie (Home Counties Boxer Welfare, fostered Norfolk)
Lovely Lennie is such a handsome Boxer boy who just loves to be with his special someone all the time. He’s looking for a quiet, adult home with no other pets and where his owner can work with separation anxiety.
Suki (Freshfields Animal Rescue, Liverpool)
This beautiful girl is looking for a special home where she can have lovely walks in the quiet countryside and be the only pet in an adult-only home. She doesn’t want lots of comings and goings. She does want lots of cuddles, naps and play time!
Bianca (Active Animals Rescue & Rehab., fostered Lancashire)
Bianca is a beautiful, Lab-type lady who’s a little shy but is so very gentle and loving. She’s good on the lead and can live in an adult home with a calm, male dog or as the only pet. Would you like to adopt Bianca?
Bella (Mayhew Animal Home, NW London)
Beautiful Bella needs experienced owners who are at home all day, as she doesn’t like to be on her own. She is a sensitive soul who takes a while to bond, but then is very loyal. Could you offer her an adult home as your only pet?
Theo (Safe Rescue, fostered Norfolk)
Theo needs a special saviour to show him lots of love and kindness and the way to a wonderful, new life. He was rescued from a Romanian shelter a very sad and traumatised boy, but is slowly beginning to flourish. He can live with or without dogs and has happily lived with a cat.
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!
Toby (Safe Rescue, fostered Norfolk)
Toby had such a sad life abused and chained up in Romania. He’s looking for a special person to offer him kindness and understanding and can live with other calm dogs. He has cataracts and is blind, so he needs a quiet home with no children.
Sydney (Adopt a Dog North East, Sunderland)
Sydney was starved almost to death, but he wants to forget the sad times and focus on a very happy future with you! He is good with dogs and children and simply wants a sofa and lots of love.
Penny (Romanian Rescue Appeal, fostered Hampshire)
Pretty Penny needs to find a home urgently as her current foster family is moving and can’t take her along. She’s a lovely old girl who just wants a steady life with a nice garden to enjoy and not too many steps for her old joints. Just look at that face!
Geordie (Animal Adoption International, fostered North London)
Geordie has such a lovely nature and is looking for a home with another dog. He deserves a quiet life and would prefer not to live with young children or cats. George will make someone a smashing companion.
Bradley (Rovers Dog Rescue, fostered Essex)
Beautiful Bradley is a clever, agile boy who can easily manage an hour’s walk. He’s fine with the dogs at his foster home and would like a home with someone around most of the time. He’d prefer a lady owner as he is wary of men. Gorgeous!
Max (Loving Homes Dog Rescue, fostered Orkney)
Max is a very handsome, mini English Bull Terrier who has so much love to give. He’s a happy, friendly and cuddly gent who would like a rural, adult and pet-free home. His favourite things are snoozing and his walks.
Bella (Freshfields Animal Rescue, Liverpool)
Bella arrived in rescue with painful ears in a very bad state. This could be why she was intolerant of the young children in her home, but she must be rehomed to an adult home, preferably all female, as your only dog.
Sheba & Shilo (Suki’s Canine Rescue Crew, fostered West Midlands)
Sheba and Shilo arrived in rescue in a terrible state, but with weeks of medical care, and the dedication of their foster carer, they are doing unbelievably well. Could you offer them a quiet home together where they will receive all the love and care they missed out on?
Teddy (Safe rescue, fostered Norfolk)
Big, cuddly Teddy is looking for a peaceful home which he’d be happy to share with other nice dogs, preferably female. He needs to make up for missed time with lots of walks and comfy, snuggly naps. Plus, of course, plenty of fuss!
Terrier Buddy, needs home comforts! (Oldies Club, fostered Somerset)
29/7/2020 Adorable Buddy is now reserved to his foster carers as they cannot bear to part with him.
Buddy is a deaf and arthritic old boy who was an unclaimed stray. He wants a home with all the love and attention he craves as it seems that he has perhaps missed out on these things in the past. Could you offer old Buddy all the care he deserves?
Branny (Dogs Trust Newbury, Berkshire)
2/8/20 – Branny has been reserved!
Funny-eared, waggy-tailed Branny is a playful and loving boy who just wants a quiet, adult-only home and a happy life of walkies and sofa snuggles. He likes a game of fetch and loves learning new things for treats. With those expressive ears, he’s probably the world’s best listener!
