Bugsy and Tally were found in a terrible state. They are adorable lurchers looking for an adult home where they will be your only pets. A secure back garden where they can have a potter and the odd zoom around is essential for these darlings.
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.
Lily (Senior Staffy Club, fostered Stafford)
Beautiful Lily is described as the best behaved and gentlest Staffy lady ever. She’s good with all people and always willing to please. She needs a quiet home with older children and no other pets. She’s such a sweet and loving lady.
Alfie & Rocky (Ark Animal Rescue, Lincolnshire coast)
Alfie & Rocky are the best of friends and need a home together. Before you rush to contact the Ark, ask yourself if you could happily and kindly deal with toileting accidents as little Rocky has a health issue leading to poor bladder control, and Alfie also has accidents. They are wonderful, friendly dogs.
No frenzies with Shenzie! (Oldies Club, fostered Norfolk)
The information we received from Shenzie’s foster carer makes her sound pretty much perfect. If you’re looking for a gem of an older lady to share your home and walks with, Shenzie could be the one!
Banjo (Love Underdogs, Essex)
BANJO IS OUR OLD DOG OF THE WEEK!
Banjo will be the perfect companion for someone who lives on their own and loves walks! He’s good with other dogs when out and about but wants to be an only pet. He takes a while to bond but when he does it’s very strong and he’s super soppy! Please help Banjo by sharing his page!
Wendy (Stray2Me, fostered Surrey)
Wendy is a very friendly and loving girl who adores human attention. She loves playing with other dogs but would prefer to be the only pet for all the love. She is intelligent, inquisitive and would enjoy an active home with older children to play with.
Sasha (Wellingborough Dog Welfare, Northants)
Sasha is an affectionate and loving bundle of super staffy energy. She might be 10 but she still needs lots of walks and fun times. Sasha needs to be your only pet and can only be rehomed locally to Northants due to current restrictions.
Frankie (South East Dog Rescue, fostered Kent)
Frankie is a gorgeous Akita Cross who came into rescue as a stray, completely terrified and shut-down. She has blossomed into a sweet and easy-going girl looking for a retirement home without children or other pets. A garden is a must.
Jet & Sasha – Lovely, loving lurchers! (Oldies Club, fostered Lincolnshire)
Sweet lurchers, Jet and Sasha, are utterly devoted to one another. Their foster carer says they have been no trouble at all. Good with dogs and older children, they need a home without cats. Who could resist this delightful duo?!
Morgan (Safe Rescue, fostered Norfolk)
Dear old Morgan is gentle and timid. He has many worries but is slowly getting used to people being kind. He’s too nervy to be around children. He needs experienced rescue dog owners and at least one other dog to help his confidence. He loves walkies, food and naps!
Maud (Safe Rescue, fostered Norfolk)
Maud can be “moody Maud” after being chained outside for 10 years in Romania. She enjoys a potter and is looking for a cosy, adult home. She gets on okay with cats but doesn’t want other dogs on her patch. She deserves a good life now.
Xena (National Animal Welfare Trust, Cornwall)
This lovely girl is shy and sensitive. She’s looking for a home with no children, possibly other dogs and with a lot of outdoor space. She doesn’t enjoy fuss and she has many anxieties but she does love playing ball games! Her new home must be within Cornwall.
Eros (Freshfields Animal Rescue, Liverpool)
This handsome chap is Eros. He would like a quiet, adult-only home with a patient owner who will help build his confidence. He’s a sweet-natured, playful and affectionate boy once he knows and trusts you.
Tia & Jack (East Anglia Dog Rescue, Ipswich)
These cutie-pies are looking for a home within East Anglia where they’ll have a human for cuddles, walkies and to buy toys. A sofa to snuggle up on would be nice too! They want to be the only pets in an adult only home. Do you want two adoring best friends?
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!
