Elsie is so sad now that her owner has passed away and urgently needs a foster/permanent home where she can be cosseted. She likes to snooze on the sofa in a quiet home where she will be the only pet and any children are 12+. Can you help Elsie?
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.
Molly (Dogs Walk This Way, fostered Berkshire)
What a noble brow! What an endearing grey muzzle! What a sweet, affectionate lady is Molly! She wants a peaceful, adult only home but would welcome visiting children and could live with another calm dog. She loves walks, fuss and pleasing people. Especially when they have treats!
Betty (Active Animals Rescue & Rehab., kennelled Hampshire)
Dear Betty has had tough life but remains loving and affectionate. She ignores dogs outside but would like to be the only pet in the home, where she spends lots of time sleeping and dreaming of being loved and a litle walk now and then and, of course, good food!
Bruno (Animal Rescue Cymru, West Wales)
21/1/20 – Bruno is reserved!
Typical lovely Labrador, Bruno, is so friendly and just loves life and all in it. He is fine with other dogs, though not cats, and can live with older, dog-savvy children. He’d love to have someone around most of the time for all the attention and nice walks.
Wilson (Leicester Animal Aid)
Wilson is an adorable, happy-go-lucky Labrador x English Bull Terrier who is desperate to find a new family to love. He’s great with children and would love a home with kids aged 8+. He’s good with dogs when out but needs to be your only pet at home.
Dalton (Safe Rescue, fostered Norwich)
Dalton is happily enjoying life in the U.K. and running freely. He just loves his walks too. Dalton gets on well with other dogs, can be left alone and is well-behaved in the home. What a lovely boy!
Danny (Private Rehoming, Cornwall)
Danny is a gentle, affectionate people-pleaser who loves his walks almost as much as he loves his food. He’s best suited to an adult only home as an only pet, although he’s easy-going with other dogs he meets. He’s simply a loving and loyal boy, especially when you have treats!
Lyra (Love Underdogs, Essex)
Lyra is a lady of great poise. She loves being with people, getting fuss or playing a game, but she’s unassuming and calm too. She’s a wonderful mixture of relaxed, loving and playful. But she’s never had a proper home… yet!
Matrix (National Animal Welfare Trust, Cornwall)
1/1/20 – Matrix is reserved!
Matrix is a bouncy but sensitive Labrador Cross who loves other dogs and needs a home where he will have a non-small, robust canine friend or two. He is strong on the lead but will enjoy learning lead-walking skills for a tasty treat. Could you offer him a home within Cornwall?
Poppy (Oakwood Dog Rescue, Hull)
Poppy is a very sweet and gentle girl who is getting depressed in kennels. She has limited vision and is worried if startled by other animals so needs to be your only pet in a quiet, adult only home. Could you help Poppy?
Ruby (Rain Rescue, South Yorkshire)
This lovely lady enjoys being with other dogs, especially males. She’s quite shy with new people and needs an adult only home. Gentle and unassuming by nature, she asks for very little out of life. A good garden and comfy sofa and she’ll be content.
Nancy (Saving Romanian Strays, fostered Scotland)
Cheerful Nancy is a laid back lady who gets on well with other dogs. She likes a fuss once she knows you and is quite snuggly once she loves you! You can tell from her face that she’s a happy girl and whether snoozing or playing, life is such fun! 30/12/19 – Nancy still needs a home
Teona (Safe Rescue, fostered Norfolk)
Look at Teona’s adorable little short legs! This affectionate, cheerful girl wants a female owner and would be happy living with a friendly male dog. She’s a strong little character, with strong little legs! 13/1/20 – Teona still needs a home
