Found abandoned on an industrial estate in Romania after heartbreakingly losing her puppies, Marnie has endured so much, yet she remains incredibly loving and trusting of people.

Marnie is wonderful with cats and loves human affection, making her the perfect companion for a calm and loving home. After such a sad past, we would love nothing more than to see this special girl finally get the forever family she truly deserves.

When he first arrived, he was heartbreakingly thin and in poor condition, but thanks to good food, care, and lots of love, he has gained weight beautifully and is looking so much healthier. Now safe and thriving, this sweet little lad is ready to start searching for the forever home he deserves. He is fantastic with people, super friendly with other dogs, and small in size, making him the perfect companion.

Buddy
8 MONTHS | SMALL
Do You Remember Buddy? Buddy is now around 8 months old.

Look at him now! Buddy has made amazing progress, he walks perfectly, gets around with no issues, and is just like any happy, healthy puppy. He’s everything you could want in a young dog, fun, lively, and full of energy. Buddy is super friendly and great with everyone: people, children, dogs, and even cats! Now he’s ready to start the next chapter of his life with a loving family. If you can offer Buddy the home he deserves, please message us today

We don’t think he would have lasted much longer in the public shelter, starved, skeleton-thin, with ribs showing.

He’s the sweetest little lad, fantastic with people, super friendly with other dogs, and small in size, ready to steal your heart.
Wilber

At 6 years old, he still has so much love, companionship, and happiness to give, and he deserves the chance to finally leave shelter life behind.
