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.
Alpen (All Animals Rescue & Rehome, Essex)
Adorable Alpen is as sweet natured as she looks. She can live with other dogs, cats and older children. She has plenty of lollopy playfulness still and is ever so slightly ball obsessed. Cute, funny and cuddly, Alpen is pretty special!
George (South East Dog Rescue, Kent)
What a pair of eyebrows! George is as amusing as he looks. He’s good with other dogs out and about but wants to be the only pet at home, with only older sensible children around him. He loves his walks and he’s all about the fun things in life.
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!
Archie (Active Animals Rescue & Rehab, Essex)
This handsome man with the ears is Archie. He’s only seven and he’s a collie, so virtually a pup! He needs a child-free, cat-free home as either your only dog or with placid female dogs. You must have collie experience, love walks and have an understanding attitude.
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+
‘ard-to-fault, Artos! (Oldies Club, fostered Hampshire)
21/09/2020 – No more applications please! Artos is a popular boy and has some lovely offers to choose from!
Cuddly Artos is a gorgeous boy who doesn’t act his age. He’d like a home in a quiet area with a garden to enjoy. He’s good with dogs but can’t live with cats. This golden treasure is going to make someone’s family complete!
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!
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.
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.
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!
Bowie (Mayhew Animal Home, NW London)
Happy girl Bowie is here to entertain you! She loves to play, have a run around and then settle down on the sofa with you and attempt to fit on your lap. She wants to be the only pet in an adult-only home. Tennis balls and cuddles are her favourite things!
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.
Mike (Dogs Trust Newbury, Berkshire)
Bright as a button Mike will do anything for a treat! He wants to be a companion dog to someone who’s at home a lot of the time and to be the only pet in an adult only home. He likes snuffly walks, games of fetch and chest scratchies.
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.
Markos (Animal Adoption International, Bucks)
Markos is a very handsome Pointer Cross rescued from a Greek shelter. He adores people and cuddles and would be a lovely companion in a pet-free home with people around a lot. He likes his exercise and walks well on the lead.
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?
Xena (National Animal Welfare Trust, Cornwall)
Do you want a fun best friend who understands everything you say and thinks you’re amazing? Xena is super intelligent and will keep you amused as long as you keep the tennis balls coming. She needs an adult-only home, in Cornwall, with lots of outdoor space, toys and love!
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!
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!
