FLUKE IS OUR OLD DOG OF THE WEEK!
This stunning Husky boy needs experienced owners with an active lifestyle because there’s no such thing as a walkies that’s too long! It would suit him best to have a fairly rural home, with no other pets or children and it needs to be in Cornwall. Please help Fluke by sharing his page far and wide!
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.
Tiggy (Private rehoming via kennels, Suffolk)
Delightful Tiggy has been through so much in the last year. She’s an elderly lady needing a warm home with a nice garden to potter in for her final months, hopefully years. It’s not Tiggy’s fault that she finds herself in kennels. Could you offer her a quiet home with company most of the day, where she can relax and be cuddled?
Pringle (Safe Rescue, fostered Berkshire)
Pretty Pringle is quite an independent lady who loves to snooze her days away on a comfy bed or sofa, but she’s not averse to being stroked and enjoys walks. She is okay with or without other dogs and, of course, just loves her food!
Franky (RADAR Dog Rescue, South Yorrkshire)
Everybody loves Franky because he’s such a kissy, cuddly, fun-loving lad! He gets on well with other dogs and could live with one, but not cats (fun to chase) or children (easily bowled over). Franky loves life! If only he had a human of his own to share it with…
Jack (Leicester Animal Aid)

Morgan (Safe Rescue, fostered Norfolk)

Bradley (Rovers Dog Rescue, fostered Essex)
As with many small, cute oldies Bradley can be a strong willed, set-in-his-ways curmudgeon at times. This doesn’t detract from him being a doting companion at all. He is adorable and very sociable with other dogs. He just knows his own mind and so needs an owner who knows theirs!
Sabby (Foal Farm, Kent)
Sabby is a beautiful Newfoundland needing very special, patient people. You must be local to Foal Farm to visit her lots and lots as she takes time to get to know you. There must be no children – not even visiting ones – at your home. Sabby is fun-loving and loyal once she trusts you.
Danny (Freshfields Animal Rescue, Liverpool)
With the bright eyes of a Terrier, the lollopy form of a Lurcher and the loving heart of…um…a really nice dog, Danny is seeking his human soul mate. He’s a shy and sensitive boy who doesn’t do children, other pets or surprises. He does do walkies, fuss and cuddles!

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.
Lucky Diddy Dotty! (Oldies Club, fostered Edinburgh)
24/11/2020 *RESERVED*

Dillon (National Animal Welfare Trust, Cornwall)
Darling Dillon will be a loving and loyal boy for his new family: kids aged 12+. He needs to be your only pet, ideally in a rural location, and needs a large garden to play in. You’ll need to be close to Hayle, Cornwall as NAWT require a few visits.
Xena (National Animal Welfare Trust, Cornwall)
