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.
Randolph (Cloud K9 Rescue, fostered North Yorkshire)
Gentle giant Randolph is so friendly and loves a cuddle. He’s clean and quiet in the home and gets on well with other dogs. He’s got such an easy-going and lovely temperament.
Louie (Freshfields Animal Rescue, Liverpool)
Brittany Spaniel Louie was found as a stray. Could you offer this very active boy a home where he will spend his days in your company? He needs long walks and to simply have a fun time. He’s good with children aged 12+ and other dogs.
Elmo (Cloud K9 Rescue, fostered Midlands)
Dear Elmo just has the sweetest of natures despite a tough life in a Romanian shelter. He gets along well with people, walks well on a lead and is fine with all dogs. His wish now is to enjoy life to the full.
Miron (Halfway Home Dog Rescue, Nottinghamshire)
Cuddly Miron is a Collie Cross who loves people, walks and adores a fuss. He’s good with other dogs and could live with children aged 12+, but preferably no cats. All he needs is a loving, forever home now.
Pair of poppets, Bonnie & Daisy! (Oldies Club, fostered Northumberland)
Bonnie and Daisy are white Westie ladies, matured to perfection! They’re good with other dogs and children and content to travel in the car or be left for a few hours to snooze. They love short walks, lap cuddles, treats and their cosy, warm beds. Bliss!
Could Buddy be your buddy? (Oldies Club, fostered Hampshire)
Buddy’s ideal home will have people at home virtually all day or a resident dog to be his buddy. He doesn’t like to be left for long periods and will need time to settle. Buddy is good with cats and is a lovely, gentle boy.
Tyke (Safe Rescue, fostered Norfolk)
Tyke is a stately German Shepherd who is so kind, loyal and grateful for any attention. He’s sweet, cuddly and just loves his walks. A quiet, retirement home with an abundance of love and pampering are all he asks for.
Darcy (Rescue Remedies Dog Rescue, kennelled West Sussex)
Darcy is a gorgeouus Staffie Cross who is very friendly and placid. She enjoys a quiet stroll to help regain her waistline and walks nicely on the lead. She’s has a lovely nature and impeccable manners!
Sydney (Adopt a Dog North East, Sunderland)
19/6/20 – Lovely Sydney is now reserved!
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.
Buster, Poppy and Polly (South Yorkshire ESS Rescue)
22/6/20 – Now reserved!
Three gorgeous English Springer Spaniel siblings can certainly offer more love than just one, and this lovely trio would like to find a new home together. Buster, Poppy and Polly are friendly, happy, well-behaved dogs with both humans and other dogs. They will make such loyal companions for a special someone.
Misty (Dogs Trust Merseyside)
Dear Misty is much loved by everyone she meets. She’s such a gentle girl who has not had a good life and now deserves a loving family to give her all she’s been missing. She would prefer to be the only dog in the home where any children are 10+.
Max (Dogs Trust Merseyside)
17/5/20 – Max has been reserved!
True golden oldie Max needs a loving, retirement home to enjoy for the rest of his days. He likes a potter but mostly snoozes the day away. He would prefer to be the only dog in the home where any children are aged 12+ and dog-savvy. Can you help little Max?
Charlie (Poodles In Need, Oxford)
Charlie is a friendly, sunny-hearted chap who is good with other dogs and older children. He’s well behaved and bright as a button, as you’d expect from a Poodle. He still has lots of energy for walks and is adorable!
Pepsi (Stokenchurch Dog Rescue, Buckinghamshire)
22/6/20 – Now reserved!
Pepsi is a sweet Dachshund mixture who is blind and has diabetes. She is very affectionate and needs a special family who will love her and look after her medical needs. Blind dogs are so wonderful and rewarding. Could you help Pepsi?
TamTam (Paws Crossed Survivors Egypt, kennelled West Dorset)
Young TamTam suffered horrific cruelty and has lost part of a front leg. She needs a female owner in a secluded home, close to Bridport, with a big, lawned garden as she is too scared to go for walks. TamTam thoroughly deserves to find happiness.
Chuckie (Greyhound Gap, Staffordshire)
Chuckie is a loyal Lurcher x Shepherd boy who gets overlooked because he is older, and yet he doesn’t act like an old dog at all. He likes children and he could live with a mature female dog. Chuckie’s so fed up of waiting in kennels – is he waiting for you? 29/5/20 – Chuckie still needs a home!
