Unremarkable at first glance but study Micky’s ears and you see an inkling of his past. This former Romanian stray has had a hard life and what is remarkable about him is how friendly and trusting he remains, both with people and other dogs. He just needs a loving home!

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.
Peter (Safe Rescue, fostered Norfolk)
Poor old Peter is only just starting to come out of his shell after years in a Romanian shelter. Gradually he’s learning how nice life can be with humans who are kind, walkies with doggy friends and your own comfy bed! Can you help him get the hang of happiness?
Skyla (Rescue Remedies, kennelled West Sussex)
Gorgeous Skyla is a very friendly and affectionate Labrador/Staffie Cross. She’s cuddly and undemanding and would make a really lovely companion. She has been used to living with other dogs and is fine to live with a similar, compatible one.
Percy (Animal Adoption International, Hampshire)
Labrador Percy is a dream of a dog. He is friendly and cuddly and would like to live with another doggy companion. He would prefer older children in the home and would make a wonderful companion.
Branny (Dogs Trust Newbury, Berkshire)
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!
Kelly (Animal Adoption International, Essex)
Kelly has spent her whole life in a Greek shelter and is a shy flower. She’s a docile and sweet girl who would like to live with a mellow but confident doggy friend.
Lenny (Safe Rescue, fostered Norfolk)
This adorable boy is very loving with his people. He gets on really well with other dogs and would happily share his home with some. He’s good with dog savvy children and is a joy to take out for walks. Little Lenny is a treasure of a dog!
Wallace (RSPCA Millbrook Animal Centre, Surrey)
Shar Pei x Labrador, Wallace was brought to the RSPCA via the Inspectors and he is now ready to find a caring home with someone at home most of the time. He’s a lovely old boy who deserves to be cosseted now.
Nellie (Pennine Animal Welfare Society, West Yorkshire)
She’s a big lass, she’s a bonnie lass and she’s all about love! Nellie is slimming down but her cuddles will always be solid and reassuring. She needs to be an only pet and have access to a field for frolicking. She’s playful, loyal and has a big, open heart!
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!
Jack (Poodles In Need, Lincolnshire)
Dinky, fluffy Jack is a delightful boy who wants to be the only pet at home, to be the apple of your eye. He can live with older children and loves walkies. A home where someone is around most of the time would suit this little poppet perfectly!
Elsie (All Dogs Matter, North London)
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?
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)
5/3/20 – Reserved!
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!
