Poppy and Pip have bags of personality and very sweet temperaments. In fact they charm everyone they meet. Could you offer them a cat-free home where any children are older?
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.
Bailey (via Freshfields, Liverpool – but still at home)
Bailey is a very sweet girl with a sensitive side. She needs a home with people around a fair amount of the time and with a securely fenced (6ft+) garden. She needs to be your only pet but can live with children aged 8+.
Twinkle Star and Superstar DJ (Oldies Club, fostered Newcastle upon Tyne)
JRT Star and Yorkie DJ are little superstars. They need a home together and DJ will need to be allowed time to trust you as he will be frightened at first. They are scared of big dogs but could live with a friendly small dog. Gorgeous!
Cassie & Jimmy (Freshfields Animal Rescue, Liverpool)
Just imagine how much fun you could have with this adorable pair! Cassie and Jimmy are inseparable, super-friendly staffies who would be ideal for a family with children aged 10+.
Little Miss Misty (Oldies Club, fostered Surrey)
Misty is a typically cute Jack Russell who is independent, fun and intelligent. She thoroughly enjoys her walks and is good on the lead. She loves playing with a squeaky toy, chasing a football around the garden (she’s a brilliant dribbler!) and snuggling up on the sofa when sleepy. Misty is wonderful company.
Joey (Cheltenham Animal Shelter, Gloucestershire)
09/10/2020 – Joey has been reserved! Good luck lovely boy!
Just because you’re small and cute doesn’t mean you want fuss from everyone. Extreme cuteness is little Joey’s cross to bear. He’s a sovereign being in his own right and needs a human companion who respects this. He’s a lovely, undemanding old boy. Treats, yes. Fusses, no thank you.
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.
Jackson (Freshfields Animal Rescue, Liverpool)
Jackson was very worried to find himself in rescue. He needs an experienced owner used to nervous, anxious dogs. You’ll need to be kind, gentle and understanding. A quiet, one-person home, as your only pet, with few visitors and no children at any time is what this little chap needs.
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+
Lucky Diddy Dotty! (Oldies Club, fostered Edinburgh)
Dotty was found on a motorway and luckily rescued. She needs a quiet home with company most of the time and walks to suit the mood she’s in on a particular day. A walk in the evening will tire her and help her settle better at night.
Paddy and Coco (Teckels Animal Sanctuaries, Gloucestershire)
Paddy and Coco are an adorable pair of cheeky, active and affectionate Terriers. They would love a rural, adult home as the only pets for all the fuss and fun. They are playful, active lads who would benefit from an experienced owner.
Ellie (Dogs Trust Newbury, Berkshire)
Dinky little Ellie is as sweet as she looks. She takes a while to get to know people and wants a quiet, adult only home as an only pet and not many visitors to fret about. She loves to keep busy with toys and walkies. She’s an adorable, cheerful companion!
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?
