Lady is a beautiful Akita looking for a comfortable, quiet, retirement home where she can be treated like the lady she is. She likes to potter outside and just lives for food! Would you like to take Lady home?
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.
Max (Freshfields Animal Rescue, Liverpool)
Max finds himself in rescue due to his owner’s ill health. He’s a beautiful, loyal boy who must be feeling very sad right now. Could you offer him an adult home as your only pet?
Sweet chocolate Sasha! (Oldies Club, fostered Wiltshire)
Sasha is a steady girl needing a quiet home with people at home most of the time. She doesn’t like loud noises, or barking dogs, so peace and quiet are top priorities. An early riser with an easily accessible garden, who can lift her into the car for outings, would be perfect.
Tally (RSPCA West Hatch, Somerset)
Poor Tally has had such a dreadful past and arrived in rescue in an appalling state. She’s now ready to go to the loving home she so deserves. You need to be local to West Hatch and must have a garden with 6ft fencing.
Jess (Helping Hounds Hampshire)
Gentle Jess is a super sweetheart German Shepherd who just loves all humans. She enjoys being stroked, groomed and cuddled. Jess is perfect on-lead and would suit a home with large breed experience as the only pet.
Frankie (South East Dog Rescue, fostered Kent)
This beautiful lady is quite a character and will amuse and delight you in equal measure. She needs a child and pet free home with a good garden, in the South East. She’s an easy-going and cheerful dog as long as her needs are met, mainly comfort and peace!
Big Bobby-dazzler (Oldies Club, fostered Tyne & Wear)
Bobby is a big beauty with a nature to match his wonderful good looks. He’s a Dobermann x Greyhound who hates the rain but loves children and food. If you want a dog that won’t get under your feet, Bobby promises to fill the largest canine-shaped void.
Arthur (Rescue Remedies, kennelled Gatwick)
Arthur is a soppy boy who loves life! His favourite things are walks, running after a ball, rolling on the grass, being rubbed down and snuggling on the sofa. He wants an adult-only home. He has lots of energy as well as lots of love to give!
Gypsy (Cheltenham Animal Shelter, Gloucestershire)
Gypsy is a beauty who has so much love to give. She likes to be with her people and doesn’t like to be on her own for too long. Could you offer Gypsy a home where she will be your only pet and have all the love and adoration she deserves?
Good as gold Jet & Sasha! (Oldies Club, fostered Lincolnshire)
This beautiful pair are a delight to have around. They could live with other dogs and older children but not cats. They love to play, have a quick sprint around the garden or a secure field and they love a cuddle. They’re easy-going and adorable!
Don (via Freshfields Animal Rescue, at home in Liverpool)
Don is a big friendly boy who loves to have company and attention. He’d like an owner who is used to large dogs. Don would be best as your only dog but could live with children aged 12+ and has potential to live with a cat.
Franky (RADAR Dog Rescue, South Yorkshire)
He might not look like a teddy but once you get to know Franky he’s all cuddles… and kisses! He loves to play and gets on well with most other dogs at the kennels. He wants an adult only home with no small furries. Could you foster or adopt him?
Henry (Rescue Remedies, kennelled Gatwick)
Henry is a genial chap. He loves people, especially visitors! Adult only home needed as he can be boisterous when excited. He likes walking with other dogs but gets jumpy with overly forward ones. He enjoys splashies, tennis ball wrangling and being moral support when any gardening is going on.
BuskyBear (Rescue Remedies, kennelled Gatwick)
BuskyBear is a lovely boy who enjoys his walks and absolutely loves cuddles and fuss! He’d like to have someone at home with him a lot of the time. Older children would be fine for him and maybe another dog after careful introductions. Want to come walkies?
Axel & Lexi (Friends of Akitas, kennelled Notts.)
Have room for two? Gorgeous Axel and Lexi’s owner was too ill to keep them and they need a new home together as they are so close. They love to play together and are such lovely dogs.
Niko (Friends of Akitas, kennelled Notts.)
Niko is a handsome boy who loves to play chase in the garden with his humans. He’s a very good traveller. Walks are so exciting that he gets a bit giddy and woofs his excitement, just so that you know that walks really are the best thing ever!
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!
Dillon (National Animal Welfare Trust, Cornwall)
He’s cheerful, loving and lollopy. Dillon is a lovely boy who can live with teenagers but wants to be the only pet at home. He needs experienced owners who will continue his reward-based training around other dogs and live in Cornwall. He loves toys, zoomies and cuddles!
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.
Mike (Dogs Trust Newbury, Berkshire)
Want a best friend who thinks you’re fascinating, loves your company and will do anything you ask if you have a treat in your hand? Then look no further than Mike! He wants to be the only pet in an adult only home… with tennis balls, toys and treats!
