These are our adoptable pups that are 8-16kg (17-35 lbs) and considered to be medium sized. All featured dogs are currently available for adoption in the USA, UK, Germany, The Netherlands, Belgium, France and Ireland unless indicated otherwise in their profile below.

NOTE: Dogs have not been cat tested unless mentioned in their bio, but can be as needed (once we receive an application we wish to pursue).

  • Holly (F)

    Mixed Breed | DOB Estimate: 06/06/2020

    Dog & people friendly (always the first to greet us). Sadly, we are certain she had a home at one point as we rescued her from a meat truck with a collar on as a puppy. She is an energetic girl that would be an amazing hiking buddy! Would suit dog-savvy, responsible, older children, just due to her energy and playfulness - we have no behavioural concerns with Holly, she's an absolute sweetheart! This angel is eager to learn & loves cuddles! More info & pics here!

  • Freida (F)

    Mixed Breed | DOB Estimate: 09/09/2012

    Grumpy faced Freida is our sweet resident vet assistant dog. Best with dogs smaller than her (here’s proof). We're looking for the most perfect retirement home for this angel (with minimal stairs would be ideal). She seeks a calm, gentle, quiet home, with people to fuss her 24/7 (she loves being groomed), and lots of sunbathing opportunities.

  • Joan (F)

    Mixed Breed | DOB Estimate: 02/02/2018

    Joan absolutely adores other dogs - she’s super playful and such a character. We have no idea how she hasn’t had an application in 3 years! </3 She is eager to learn so will pick up training quite quickly. She is an energetic girl who will be the best adventure partner and she would really bloom in an active home full of outdoor activities like hikes and long walks. Here’s another pic of her showing off her adventurous personality!

  • Cookie (F)

    Corgi Mix | DOB Estimate: 02/02/2018

    This cuddle bug has been waiting for her forever home for over 3 years. Very people friendly and loves snuggles. She has a decent amount of energy, and loves to be active so would make a great exploring pup, but she equally loves a good sunbathe. Looking for someone she could go to work with as she loves company. Dog friendly and playful, but will do best with mellow dogs, or as an only pup.

  • Patrick (M)

    Tibetan Spaniel Mix I DOB Estimate 03/03/2016

    This gentle boy is fed up of us and looking to retire somewhere quiet! He's around 8 years old and is looking for a relaxing place to sunbathe and snooze his days away. He'll make the best companion and will just sit by you, with those big spaniel eyes, waiting for a chin scratch. He would love a home with other similarly aged dogs or dogs with a 'been there, done that' attitude. Not interested in drama, low-key best boy.

  • Gelf (M)

    Poodle | DOB Estimate: 09/09/2019

    Friendly, calm, good with dogs and people! Resource guards with other dogs, so needs an experienced owner willing to spend time with him to work through his anxieties. Will do best as an only dog so he can have all the attention for himself as he LOVES people.

  • KiKi (F)

    Shiba Mix | DOB Estimate: 05/05/2020

    Kiki is a classic Shiba - aloof at times, stubborn and a total sassy-pants! We'd love for her to find a home with experienced Shiba owners who know how to handle the mood swings and diva attitude of this wonderful girl. She would make a wonderful addition to the family, either as an only dog, or with a similar sized dog for company.

  • Betty PK (F)

    Labrador Mix | DOB Estimate: 12/12/2017

    Betty PK is the only remaining pup of 12 rescued that day without a home now 💔 She's been waiting patiently for 2+ years. She is such a chill, gentle sweetheart who prefers the quiet life where she can relax. Would do best as the only dog in home (although she is fine with other pups) with no children. She loves food and sofa time. More info & pics here!

  • Juniper (M)

    Collie Mix | DOB Estimate: 09/09/2020

    This handsome boy really enjoys the company of other dogs; he's playful & sweet.

Best as an only dog, or with a mellow large dog to help him find his feet, ideally no young kids.

  • Kai (M)

    Collie Mix | DOB Estimate: 05/05/2018

    This fella is a chatty, friendly soul who is great with both people and dogs. He has sensitive lungs so he needs a slow paced life, ideally with calmer dogs who won’t encourage him to run too much. His lungs don’t stop him from playing and being ridiculous at times and is definitely younger at heart!

  • Nadin (M)

    Collie Mix | DOB Estimate: 10/10/2019

    This fella is shy, and sweet-natured but can also be playful and energetic when he is comfortable. He is dog selective so best as an only dog. Needs a rural, calm and experienced home. He’ll do great with a simple life and family to love him.

  • Cookie Jr (M)

    Corgi Mix | DOB Estimate: 03/03/2020

    Dog friendly, playful and energetic guy who likes to climb like a goat! All he's known is the Safehouse so he will need patience to get used to a new environment. He would be best in a home with other playful pups, without children, and somewhere experienced with decompression time and positive reinforcement.

  • Star (M)

    Terrier Collie Mix I DOB Estimate: 08/08/2022

    Star is a total gem of a dog - not interested in drama, just happy to be around people and enjoy day-to-day adventures. He can be a little shy at first but will warm up very quickly once food is involved. After that, he'll be your shadow, your cheerleader, your excuse to leave boring parties early - everything! This handsome lad will give you everything he has in return for your love... And maybe some biscuits.

  • London (F)

    Shiba Inu I DOB Estimate 06/06/2021

    Our quiet angel dog - London is a very petite, beautiful Shiba. She lives with the small dogs and gets a little lost in their chaos but as soon as she's removed from that environment, she transforms into a stunning, playful, cheeky little girl. She would love a home either by herself or with a resident dog to be her big sister/brother. She will follow her person around the house and is an absolute baby when being held.

    Cat friendly

  • Tina (F)

    Corgi Mix | DOB Estimate 03/03/2021

    A total babe. This love bug is quite simply the best girl. She has a super long body and the big beautiful eyes of a soppy baby (which she'll probably use to get away with murder). Loves to cuddle and be close to people; she truly is a gentle soul. Gets along with other dogs fine but would prefer calm playmates or even a home by herself so she can stick to your side without distraction.

  • Tiffany (F)

    Shiba Inu Mix I DOB 11/03/2023

    Tiffany was born here with her siblings after her mum came to us very heavily pregnant. She is a ball of fluff and love - very affectionate and playful. Loves playing with the other dogs and being fussed over by people. Her ideal family would take her on lots of adventures and allow her curious, cheeky nature to shine through. Could live with dog savvy children.

  • Ronnie (F)

    Terrier | DOB Estimate: 01/01/2019

    This sweet girl might be blind but she doesn't let it hinder her at all. She gets around really well, has come so far and always follows the voices of our team in hope for extra hugs.

    Murran is the most handsome goodest boy. He has soulful eyes and the most beautiful blue merle colouring, thanks to his collie blood. He is very sweet natured, calm and affectionate. He loves butt scratches and sunbathing; he’d be the perfect companion and could suit a family.

Adoption FAQs

  • Oh yes! Due to our tiny sized team, we get what we can updated but have tons of amazing dogs available for adoption. Feel free to send in a general application saying what you are looking for and we can help you find your match! We have hundreds of adoptable animals at all times.

  • We only adopt where we have a support network, ensuring we can always be there for our rescues even after adoption so there's minimal risk of any failings. We work with partner rescues but we also handle adoptions privately. The last thing we would want after all of their rehabilitation, is for them to leave us to be failed again by humans and undo all their progress.

  • 1) We receive an application (you can apply for a particular animal, or leave it blank if you are open to our suggestions)

    2) We review the applications usually within a week. Be sure to check spam folder!

    3) If we wish to pursue yours, you'll be invited for a homecheck.

    4) If the homecheck is approved, we will then start the matching process. We will ensure that we feel the pup/cat is a good fit.

    5) Once the match is secured, we will begin travel plans. It can take on average between 1-4 months, depending on the location.

  • All you pay for is transportation home. Your pet will also be fully vaccinated, spayed/neutered + medically examined for behavioral or medical conditions to reduce any surprises.
