Prairie Dog

Charlene is a 3/4 year old female medium sized cross breed who is currently enjoying life in her foster home in Norwich, East Anglia. She was rescued from a kill shelter in Romania and subsequently taken to a private shelter, where she was given a second chance at finding the loving home she deserves. Charlene is described as a sweet and friendly girl with a lovely temperament, making her a potentially wonderful addition to a family looking to welcome a new dog into their lives. Her friendly nature and adaptable personality mean that she is expected to fit comfortably into a variety of home environments, provided she receives the love, care and attention she needs. Since arriving in her foster home, Charlene has been mixing well with the other dogs and has shown that she is comfortable sharing her surroundings with them. She could happily join a household that already has other dogs, but she would also be equally suited to a home where she is the only dog, enjoying all the attention...

Duffy is a 3 year old male smaller/medium cross-breed who has a cheeky personality, plenty of character and an incredible amount of love to give. This charming black and tan boy is full of life and has a wonderfully playful nature that is sure to bring plenty of fun and laughter to his new family. He is looking for a loving home where he can enjoy companionship, affection and the security he has never truly experienced. Duffy certainly knows how to make himself noticed. He is a lively little character who loves bouncing around his kennel and showing off his excitement by jumping up high. However, his favourite thing is getting close to people and wrapping his front paws around them, almost as though he is asking them to sit down and spend some quality time giving him cuddles. He clearly enjoys human attention and loves being close to the pe...

Aisha is a 10 month old female medium sized Husky cross who is currently being fostered in Norwich, Norfolk, East Anglia. She was born in January 2026 and has already experienced a difficult start to life after being abandoned by the side of a busy road in Romania. Thankfully, she was rescued before anything tragic could happen. Despite her unfortunate beginnings, Aisha is a sweet and affectionate girl who is described as a joy to be around. She has a lovely nature and is now ready to begin the next chapter of her life with a family who will give her the time, patience and care she needs as she grows into adulthood. As Aisha is still a young dog, she will need the usual training, guidance and consistency that come with raising a teenage dog. She is, however, eager to learn and keen to please, which should make continuing her education a rewarding experience for her new family. With patient encouragement, positive training and plenty of opportunities to learn, she has the potential ...

Handsome Cody is looking for a home. Cody – 3 year old male Jack Russell Terrier Cross. Whilst he might be small in size, he has the personality of dreams, never stops making everybody smile, and loves to make new friends. Cody is a wonderful little dog with a heart full of love and a lot of character. Rescued from Romania as a puppy, he came to us with a traumatic injury to his tail, which required surgery. He was quite a shy little pup but was adopted into a home fairly quickly. Unfortunately, this was not the right environment for Cody and he never really settled, so a year later he was back at DC. He was adopted out again and, through no fault of his own, was returned within a few weeks as the resident dog did not like him. Cody had been a perfect gentleman, so he came back yet again to live his best life with his Wonky friends. Cody is a sweet and friendly dog once he’s settled but can be a little shy at first. Once he gets to know you, he’s an absolute bundle of fun! ...

Seth is a young male English Pointer, approximately 10 months old, was found as a stray when he was just 6 months, and has been in a shelter in Cyprus ever since. He is a typical pointer: super friendly, loving, cuddly, extremely human oriented, good with other dogs, and loves children and anyone he meets. We suspect Seth may have been from an unwanted litter produced by a hunters dog. He was probably then dumped on the roadside to fend for himself away from everything he had ever known. He was found with 2 other male pointers a few years older than him and has been happily living with them in a pack with some other female pointers aswell. Seth will be a real treat to train and welcome into your home. Just as any pointer does, for those that are familiar with the breed, they make the most wonderful companions. They don’t ask for much: a full belly, a warm sofa, a human to cuddle up with, and regular physical and mental stimulation. They go hard with their exercise but also enjoy t...

Son, is a three year old male German Shorthaired Pointer. Son is a very handsome GSP, he is a spectacular dog, large and elegant in stature.

Wilson is a 2 year old male Hound Cross. He was rescued in Cyprus as a baby of six months and flew to his current home in Mold, Wales at around a year old. He weighs around 27 kg. Wilson is a deeply affectionate dog who forms strong bonds once he feels safe. When he trusts you, he is a total sofa snuggler and would happily spend the day curled up beside you, soaking up all the love. Indoors, he is calm, settled, and content to relax, making him a lovely presence in the home. Outside, Wilson has a playful side and enjoys stretching his legs in open spaces. He absolutely loves chasing his frisbee, although returning it is not really his strong point. He is more about the joy of the chase than the fetch itself. Wilson walks beautifully on the lead when it is quiet. He can become excited and reactive when he sees other dogs, particularly at the start of a walk, but with calm handling and distraction he does settle. Off lead, he enjoys playing with other dogs, although he can get a bit...

Please meet Barmy Bertie! Bertie is a gorgeous little Malshi that joined us when his owner struggled to look after him. Bertie is a wonderful little lad, a bundle of fluff and love just waiting to devote himself to you! He is absolutely stunning both inside and out and his cheeky little face look straight into your heart!! He walks beautifully on the lead and is house trained, most of the day he spends snoozing on the sofa however he loves her food and walks! Bertie is a gentle little soul, he is a darling with not a bad bone in his body. He is not destructive at all and is quite content being left for short periods. Bertie would love to live with other dogs a similar size to him. I don’t think he enjoys being the only dog in the home however we would consider this if his carer is home alot of the time. He is a very undemanding and lazy lad; he would suit an older person or couple. He absolutely loves to snuggle! Bertie is fine with other dogs and cats. He loves to play...

Little Josh  – 4-month-old mixed-breed boy, to be fostered in Gloucestershire. Just look at that face! Josh is seriously cute, but he has a lovely character to match, full of fun, mischief and love. I visit Spain twice a year to work alongside a rescue charity that Starfish has proudly supported for 15 years. At Starfish, we only put dogs up for adoption that I have met personally and would be happy to welcome into my own home with my dogs, or into one of our experienced foster homes. Josh is one of those very special dogs. Please watch the videos at the bottom of his profile and you will see exactly why I want to help him find his forever home. Little Josh is best described as a miniature Labrador! Like so many puppies before him, he was found abandoned when he was tiny. Thankfully, he was lucky enough to secure a rescue place with the charity we support. Like Billybob, he is currently living in the house with Keiron, the kennel manager, along with his best friend Billybob. I ab...

Pernales is a 3-year-old male Griffon. Born on 03/05/2022, he is currently in the North of Spain and searching for his forever home. He was surrendered by his owner, a hunter, because he was not considered good at hunting. He is described as a huge and soft animal, super elegant and dignified in his presence. Pernales is a very balanced and calm dog, which is a wonderful trait in such a strong and powerful boy. His impressive build is matched by a loving nature. Pernales is sociable with other dogs and gets along well with them. He is also very obedient with people and is not shy, showing confidence in human company. Everything about his description points to him being a very good dog with a steady temperament. He is, however, very strong and powerful, so he will need someone physically capable of managing him on the lead. He is not used to walking on a lead, which means patience, strength and consistent training will be essential. With the right guidance, he has the foundation to...

However, when out on walks he can show interest in cats and may attempt to chase, so ongoing management will be important. He is fully housetrained and accepts wearing a collar and lead. He walks well but can pull at times due to excitement, parti...
