Winnie

Lyra

2-3 YearS | SMALL/MEDIUM

Fred

This beautiful girl and her six little ones were rescued from a public shelter, and they’re all thriving now! Mum is loving and gentle, and her pups are playful, sweet, and full of personality. We’d love to find a loving home for Mum!

Found on the streets with her litter of pups. This sweet girl is estimated to be 2–3 years old and is a smaller medium-sized dog with a very friendly and affectionate nature. We would love to find lovely Lyra a forever home here in the UK. She will arrive into foster at the end of the month in Wiltshire and will be available for meet-and-greets once settled.

SMALL

We don’t think he would have lasted much longer in the public shelter, starved, skeleton-thin, with ribs showing. He’s safe with us now, and eventually a forever home once he’s fitter and gained some weight. He’s the sweetest little lad, fantastic with people, super friendly with other dogs, and small in size, ready to steal your heart.

Dotty

Betsy

Rescued from the public shelter, this sweet boy has shown nothing but love since the day he arrived. He’s incredibly friendly, very affectionate, and not fearful at all. He’s quite small in size but has a huge heart, and we would absolutely love to find him the forever family he truly deserves. Could you be the one to give him his happy ending?

This tiny little girl is now safe and away from the public shelter, and she’s ready to find a loving home of her own. She’s very small in size and extremely friendly, absolutely adores people, and we believe she most likely had a home once before. She’s also great around other dogs! All she needs now is a family to love her again. Could that be you?

SMALL

Poor Betsy was so scared in the public shelter, not understanding what was happening around her. She was one of the lucky ones we were able to get out—and now she’s safe. This beautiful girl has been given a second chance, and we’re hoping she won’t have to wait long for her forever home. Let’s find you the loving family you deserve, Betsy.

Benji

6/7 Years | Medium

Tilly

This dear older boy was rescued from the public shelter and is now safe with us. Estimated to be around 6–7 years old, he has the most wonderful temperament. He’s fantastic with people, great with other dogs, and even good with cats! After everything he’s been through, we would truly love for him to find a loving home where he can finally relax, feel safe, and enjoy the life he deserves. Could you give this special boy his happy ending?

2 MONTHS | SMALL

Bertie

Once sad and alone on the streets of Romania, this tiny little girl is now safe and under our care. She’s only around 9 weeks old—just a baby with her whole life ahead of her. Now all she needs is a loving forever home where she can grow, feel safe, and be cherished the way every puppy deserves. Could you be the one to give her the happy future she’s waiting for?

3 MONTHS | Small

This dear little boy was rescued from the public shelter, where he was found shivering in the corner of a pen in -7° temperatures. At just around 13 weeks old, he’s only a baby—far too young to have experienced such hardship. Despite everything he’s been through, he is the sweetest little boy with so much love to give. Now he just needs a warm, loving home where he can feel safe and grow up surrounded by kindness. Could you be the one to give him the happy life he deserves?

Rodger

Tucker

Rodger is an absolutely lovely boy with the sweetest temperament. Medium in size and estimated to be around three years old, he’s the perfect age, young, but past the puppy stage. He gets on well with the other dogs in the shelter and absolutely loves human attention. Rodger will be leaving Romania on 21st February to travel to his foster home in Wiltshire. Once he’s rested after his long journey, he’ll be available for meet and greets. If you’d like to meet Rodger with the potential of adopting him, please message us. It would be amazing to see this special boy finally get the loving, well-deserved forever home he’s been waiting for.

He’s very people-friendly and amazing with other dogs, making him a wonderful companion. His sister, Cherry, arrived in the UK a couple of months ago and is doing amazingly well in her new home. Now we’re hoping this little man can be just as fortunate. Please let him be the next one to find his happy ending.
