Max – 8 year old male Cockapoo

Image
Meet Max – 8-year-old Cockapoo boy Max is a lovely Cockapoo currently being fostered in an adult home in Gloucestershire, where he is living alongside other dogs. He came into our care due to the ill health of both of his previous owners, which meant they could no longer care for him. It’s clear he has been much loved and well looked after. Max has been with us for just under a week, and we are still getting to know him, but what is already very apparent is what a gentle, affectionate, and easy boy he is. He has settled into his foster home really well with no major issues and has proven to be a wonderful house guest. He is great with both people and other dogs, enjoying their company and even starting to play. He walks nicely both on and off the lead and is relaxed when meeting other dogs out and about. Max is a typical Cockapoo in many ways — a sensitive, loving little soul who forms strong bonds with his people. He does have a “velcro dog” nature and likes to be close to you. I...

Molly – 1 year old female Kokoni Cross

Image
Adorable little Molly is a 1 year old female Kokoni Cross and weighs only 5 kilos, the perfect size for lots of lap cuddles. She was found as a stray and has now come under our charity’s care. This little Kokoni cross is our golden girl. She is in foster care and lives happily in her foster home in Cyprus with many different dogs of various ages and sizes. She gets along beautifully with them all and enjoys playtime and zooming around in the garden. She has adjusted well to living in a home environment and loves nothing more than sleeping in your lap or bed, as cuddling is one of her favourite things to do. Molly is fully house trained, sleeps well overnight, and has no guarding or sharing issues. She will be ideal for a family with children over 10 years old, with a family who are around for most of the day. She may be tiny, but she has a lot of energy, as is typical of a young Kokoni dog. Molly will need regular exercise on a daily basis. She can be rehomed with another playful...

Zorro – 6 month old male Cross-Breed

Image
Zorro is a 6 month old male Cross-Breed, small to medium in size, with a big heart and impressive bravery for such a young pup. At just four months old, Zorro was brought to the pound, a tiny boy in a world that felt too harsh, crowded, and loud. Before his paws could even touch the cage, we took him in. Even in that uncertain moment, something remarkable appeared: his protective instinct. Zorro immediately looked after his sister, guiding her, watching over her, and making sure she felt safe. For such a small pup, his bravery and intelligence were impossible to miss. Quick to learn, outgoing, and full of curiosity, Zorro is already showing his playful and affectionate side. He thrives on interaction, loves exploring, and responds to guidance with a sharp, eager mind. While cautious at first around men, he warms quickly to women, showing a gentle and sensitive nature. Zorro is growing stronger each day and is ready to step into a home that can match his energy, intelligence, and ...

Bambi – 1 year old female Cross-Breed

Image
Bambi is an 1 year old girl who will grow into a smaller medium-sized dog (current weight: 7 kg). She currently lives in a foster family in Hungary. She and her sibling were strays when tragedy struck — Bambi was hit by a car and suffered a hip injury. Thanks to surgery and lots of care from her foster family, she’s healing beautifully. Today, she walks, runs, hops onto the sofa, and will continue to benefit from gentle physiotherapy. This sweet girl has a gentle, kind nature. She can be timid in new situations, but once she trusts you, she’s a cuddly, affectionate shadow who loves to snuggle in bed. She’s also a little mischief-maker — stealing slippers, playing with toys, and happily chasing her ball! Bambi adores other dogs and would be happiest in a home with a canine friend. She doesn’t like being left alone, so a companion will give her the comfort she needs. This sweet pup is still getting the hang of walking on a lead and can be a little shy around traffic and crowds, but ...

Magda – 4 year old female German Shepherd Cross

Image
Magda is a 4-year-old female German Shepherd Cross weighing around 30 kilograms. She’s a sweet, gentle, and sociable girl with a calm, loving temperament. Magda’s story began in the countryside of Italy, where she was discovered bravely protecting her nine little puppies. Thankfully, all her pups have found loving homes, and now it’s finally Magda’s turn to dream of a family of her own. She’s a very affectionate girl who loves people and craves companionship. Magda enjoys spending time around humans, always ready to return affection with warmth and loyalty. She gets along well with adult male dogs, preferring their calm and steady company, but she’s not keen on living with female dogs, puppies, or cats — she values peace and a balanced environment above all else. At the moment, Magda waits patiently in her kennel, hoping for the day someone special will see her for the wonderful dog she is. She would flourish in a home where she can relax, feel safe, and finally enjoy the love she ...

Bracken – 4 year old male German Short-Haired Pointer

Image
Bracken is a 4 year old German Shorthaired Pointer currently in foster care in Dundee, Scotland. He is a young, energetic and very sweet natured dog who has been through such a lot in his short life, but remains affectionate, people focused and super enthusiastic about everything! When Bracken was rescued, he was in a bad way. He had suffered a serious collision with a car which resulted in a broken left leg, a fractured left hip and a dislocated right leg. He underwent surgery for all of these injuries and has healed well overall. He remains active and loves being out and about, but due to the extent of the trauma he still needs to continue building muscle and strength. At times he can appear a little unstable on his back end and may stumble or fall, particularly when tired or over excited, which is completely understandable given what his body has been through. Ongoing strengthening work and sensible exercise will be important for him going forward. Bracken is a friendly and lo...

Dolly – 4 month old female Kokoni Cross

Image
Meet Dolly, a 4 month old female Kokoni Cross who is looking for a loving forever home. Dolly is one of five siblings who were found in a cardboard box by the roadside. Dolly is a Kokoni mix, but as we do not know her parents it is hard to say what she is crossed with. She is full of energy, curiosity, and cuddles, everything you would expect from a happy, healthy puppy learning about the world. She is expected to stay small, up to around 10 kg, making her the perfect size for both sofa snuggles and weekend adventures. Life is exciting, and she is loving every bit of it: toys, treats, new friends, both human and dog, and all the affection she can soak up. Dolly is looking for a home that understands what a little puppy needs to grow up happy and well adjusted. A family that will be patient while she masters house training and lead walking, and who will give her positive, gentle guidance balanced with time to play and explore, but most importantly lots and lots of love. Dolly has ...

Bagel – 1 year old male Beagle

Image
Bagel is a one year old Beagle. He is a new arrival in the shelter and such a sweetheart. He was found as a stray days before the end of the hunting season, likely abandoned or lost. The hunting mentality and throwaway culture of dogs in Cyprus results in thousands of hounds finding their way into the shelters across the island every season, so we’re no stranger to beagles and pointers who haven’t quite made the cut. Bagel is around a year old is as velvety on the inside as he is on the outside. He is such a softie, and has a gentle, submissive and affectionate personality. He can be a little bit shy to start with, but it doesn’t take much to win him over and before long he’ll be jumping up for cuddles and leaning in for a fuss. He’s very much still a baby, so learning each and every day, but he’s doing well at lead-training and is almost there with a very smart ‘sit’ for a treat! Bagel is great with other dogs and mixes into a group without any issues. He is gentle, playful, frie...

Cooper – 2 year old male Cross-Breed

Image
Cooper is a 2-year-old male Cross-Breed. He is a very handsome dog who is believed to possibly be a Hungarian Vizsla cross. Cooper has a very soft and gentle nature, making him a lovely companion for the right home. Despite his sweet temperament, he is also quite a high-energy dog who enjoys keeping active. He absolutely loves his toys and will happily spend time playing with them, even entertaining himself when needed. Cooper enjoys his walks and finds great excitement in getting outside and exploring. Because of his energy levels, regular exercise is important for him to stay happy and balanced. Cooper sadly had to return to rescue because he was not receiving enough exercise in his previous home. As a result, he is now looking for a new family who can provide him with the activity and stimulation he needs. A home with a large garden would be ideal so that he has space to play and burn off some of his energy. Although Cooper is lively, he does know how to settle down after he h...

Trinity – 2-3 year old female Cross-Breed

Image
Trinity is a medium sized female cross breed aged around 2/3 years old. Trinity is fostered in Norwich Norfolk I met Trinity during a trip to a Romanian shelter back in October last year. She was living outside on the street along with a few other dogs and was pregnant, not for the first time sadly. When the rescuer captured her inside the gates of the shelter she asked if we would take her and of course we agreed. Unfortunately the neighbourhood were not kind to the dogs in that street and would throw rocks at them to chase them away as they didn’t want them around. As a result of this Trinity is extremely wary of men and will bark at them. In time she can learn to trust individual men but we sadly cannot erase these memories altogether. Ideally an all female home would be best but a very patient and understanding man could win her trust over time. It is only barking, it’s like she’s trying to warn the others that there’s a man around and they should be scared, the others ignore...

Finn – 5-6 month old male Cross-Breed

Image
Finn is a five to six month old crossbreed pup who we believe will grow to be medium sized. Finn fostered Norwich Norfolk. Finn has come into our care recently from the Boto?ani public shelter in Romania. He is initially quite hand shy with new people but his confidence is growning daily. He is much braver when he has an adult dog to shadow around and we would therefore need to find him a home with at least one other dog in permanent residence. He is mixing well with the safe rescue cat and will need a home with children no younger than twelve. He will need all the usual training and care that all pups need and adopters should expect peeing, poohing, chewing and potentially sleepless nights until work is put into training them out of it. TERMS AND CONDITIONS When you adopt a Safe Rescue dog, you MUST use a slip lead. This will keep your dog safe: your new dog will be nervous and will not trust you, and you will not know which situations might upset your dog. If your dog panics, t...

Balto is a part Mastin we think, and he has a lush, blonde, soft coat.

Newton – 4 year old male Cross-Breed

Image
Newton is a medium sized crossbreed aged around four years old. Newton fostered Fakenham Norfolk. Newton and his siblings were taken in by a Romanian private shelter when war broke out in Ukraine. There were many situations at that time when Romania stepped up to help the abandoned dogs of Ukraine as people fled the country and left them behind. The siblings grew up in the shelter and sadly were never offered homes. The first of the four came over last year and was happily adopted. We will of course help the other two shortly. Due to not interacting with many humans the group are a little hand shy with strangers but very happy and friendly dogs once they’ve gotten to know you well. Newton will need another confident dog in his forever home and would like a family with no children under the age of twelve. He is doing so well in his UK foster home and is a very fast learner. He was reluctant to walk on a lead initially but is now loving the new adventures of the outside world. The...

Ciara – 5 year old female Cross-Breed

Image
Please meet Cuddly Ciara, well just look at that face! Ciara is a gorgeous little terrier mix that is approximately 5 years old, she is very small and very sweet. Ciara was saved from the Chinese meat market by Harbin Rescue. Yes dogs are food in China, if you don’t know the meat markets are absolutely evil and the treatment the dogs get and the things they have seen is nothing short of hell. Little Ciara is one of the lucky ones and has come to us in the UK to find her forever home. If you are not aware, there are no animal welfare laws in China so no dog is ever safe there, which is why the dogs are sent overseas to be rehomed, to make sure they are safe and loved for life! We expected Ciara to be quite bewildered when she arrived in foster with us, she had a 14 hour flight followed by a few hours drive, although all she wanted was to have a snuggle with me, it’s very easy to fall in love with this adorable little lady. I mean, just look at her! She took everything in her stride...
