Dogs for Adoption

 

Browse all of the dogs currently in our care that are in search of their forever homes.

If you are interested in re-homing one of our dogs, please e-mail into us at info@allcreatureslife.org to request a "Perfect Match Form".

If you would like to make a donation towards the costs of looking after the dogs and/or the upkeep of our kennels, please use the "DONATE" button on this website. Many thanks! 

 

Important Re-homing Criteria for Dogs

  • Adult dogs - a re-homing donation of £250.00 is requested. Dogs under 12 months - a re-homing donation of £350.00 is requested. This helps us cover the costs of caring for our dogs, neutering, worm and flea treatment and also any further required veterinary care.
  • If you live in rented accommodation you will need your landlord's written consent and will need to send this to us via email. 
  • All dogs rehomed from us will be up to date with flea and worming treatment and will be neutered and microchipped before leaving the Sanctuary. (Unless exempt for medical reasons). 
  • We do not re-home our dogs with existing dogs that are not neutered (unless for medical or exceptional circumstances).

The Process

  • If your application is successful, we will invite all household members in to attend a "meet and greet" with the dog. All household members must attend in order to go ahead to the next stage. 
  • If the above is successful, we will then move onto a home visit to check the premises and the garden. Once this has been passed you will then move onto booking an Adoption Date.
  • All Adopters will receive 4 weeks Free PetPlan Insurance upon Adopting an animal from us. 

After re-homing, you'll be able to access advice from the Sanctuary as needed for the rest of the dog's life.

Our Dog Assessor and Trainer, Gary Mathlin is happy to aid and advise with any queries. 

Dale

Breed: Patterdale, Male

Date of Birth: January 2019

Arrived to Kennels: 7th July 2023

Can I live with other dogs? I am okay with some dogs when interacting out on a walk - at the Sanctuary I have met two dogs who I have gotten on well with on lead but I would be better suited as the ONLY Pet within the home, as I require a dog experienced owner to dedicate their time to my training. 

Can I live with teenagers?

Yes

Can I live with young children?

No - I can sometimes guard objects such as toys/chews - with the proper training from my Adult Handlers, there are ways to best manage this via professional advise from ACGAS.

Do I have any medical issues?

No

Can I live with cats?

No

Am I good on the lead?

Yes 

Dale is a very bouncy, lively Patterdale that lives up to the terrier name! He requires an active owner who can dedicate time too his training and provide him with the active lifestyle he requires.

Sadly we do not know a great deal about Dale's background as he was advertised for free online, after his previous owner only had him for four months. The Staff and Volunteers at ACGAS spend time with Dale on a regular basis but he is not coping well with kennel life as he is still very isolated and not receiving the true enrichment that he needs. As mentioned above, Dale does have the potential too get on with other dogs whilst out on walks (on lead), as we have witnessed this but we do not know what he is like in a home environment and therefore, believe he should be the ONLY Pet.

Dale's personality we would describe as a cheeky, happy chappy who knows cues such as "sit" and "spin", he will do anything for a tasty treat! Dale also being a Patterdale breed, loves to shred toys and would benefit from enrichment such as snuffle matts and stuffed toilet rolls that he can tear apart. 

Milo

Breed: Akita X, Male

Date of Birth: 22nd January 2023

Arrived to Kennels: 17th May 2024

Can I live with other dogs? Potentially, subject to a meet and greet on Site 

Can I live with teenagers?

Yes

Can I live with young children?

Potentially 

Do I have any medical issues?

No

Can I live with cats?

No

Am I good on the lead?

I require training as I like to pull!

 

Milo has had a very restricted first year of his life, sadly he has spent most of his time within a crate, in a flat with no garden. Due to this, Milo sadly lacks basic socialisation and has limited knowledge of the outside world.

Milo knows basic commands such as sit, paw, lay down and is very trainable by using tasty treats! He is currently being trained too loose lead walk. 

Our assessment of Milo indicated that he has a lot of intelligence. He would definitely benefit from training classes. These can be provided through ACGAS.

Milo would be a wonderful pet for active adopters who have a lot of time to dedicate to him. He would not be suitable for first time dog owners. Milo is in desperate need of learning the ways of the outdoor world. If you're a doggy person looking to adopt a dog with fantastic potential and a blank slate, Milo may be the perfect dog for you!

Bailey

Breed: Beagle X Labrador, Male

Date of Birth: 11th May 2015

Arrived to Kennels: 18th May 2024

Can I live with other dogs? Potentially. Bailey has met a number of dogs here of all shapes and sizes. He is keen to play with them but also knows when to respect their space. 

Can I live with teenagers?

Yes

Can I live with young children?

Potentially 

Do I have any medical issues?

Yes. Bailey is awaiting a dental, due to his teeth being in quite bad condition he may need a few removed. 

Can I live with cats?

No

Am I good on the lead?

Yes but can pull quite a bit

 

Bailey is a spirited dog who is full of energy.

This handsome chap has come in to our care through no fault of his own and is now looking for some understanding adopters, who can give him the stable environment and active lifestyle that he needs.

Being a Beagle X, Bailey is very vocal and loves to make everyone know that he is there. He is very vocal in the car on route to the Vets, how he hasn't lost his voice yet is beyond me!

Bailey has got on well with many dogs here, ranging from the size of a Yorkie to a Labrador. He engages in play and loves a game of chase but is also happy to potter around and do his own thing. He is good on the lead but will require a strong handler as he can pull quite a lot. With some training, this can be improved. He has a very sweet nature and adores affection from his handlers. 

If you believe you have the right home for our gorgeous Bailey, please email into us - info@allcreatureslife.org

Daisy

Breed: Jack Russell, Female

Date of Birth: 1st January 2008

Arrived to Kennels: 1st July 2024

 
Can I live with other dogs? Potentially. Daisy does not seem bothered by other dogs at the Sanctuary. She has also lived with a Staffordshire Bull Terrier in her previous home, up until they sadly passed in 2020. 

Can I live with teenagers?

Yes

Can I live with young children?

Potentially 

Do I have any medical issues?

No. Considering Daisy's age, she is in very good condition. She is booked into the Vets for a dental this month. Apart from this, she is healthy and happy!

Can I live with cats?

Potentially. Due to Daisy's age, she does not show any interest in cat chasing. 

Am I good on the lead?

Yes 

 

Daisy is our 16 1/2 year old golden oldie. She is a delightful little Jack Russell with a lot of love to give. Daisy was signed over too ACGAS due to her owner being in hospital for over a year. Sadly, with her unable to be there for Daisy, neighbours were popping in daily to take care of whilst she remained in the home alone.

As Daisy has spent far too much time alone already, we would love her to have a family (or individual) who are home a lot of the time so that she has the company. From observing how Daisy interacts with other dogs whilst in our care, we believe she could possibly live with another. 

She enjoys going for short walks so if you are looking for a plod along companion, look no further!

Due to her hearing and eyesight not being 100%, she may loop around you a few times but she is by no means a trip hazard! This darling girl gives kisses and shows a wagging tail to everyone she meets. She is truly a rescue gem.

Scooby

Breed: Labrador X Staffordshire Bull Terrier, Male 

Date of Birth: 20th May 2019

Arrived to Kennels: 29th June 2024

 
Can I live with other dogs?

Potentially. Scooby lived with a Collie in his previous home. We believe he may do well in a home with a confident dog of similar size. 

Can I live with teenagers?

Yes

Can I live with young children?

Potentially (dog savvy)

Do I have any medical issues?

No 

Can I live with cats?

No

Am I good on the lead?

Yes 

 

Scooby is an adorable, adventurous, friendly boy on the look out for a new home. 

Scooby was signed over to the Sanctuary after his owners had to relocate to a different country.

He can be a little anxious and shy when meeting new people but is always eager to make friends, even if it's a little bit scary at first. Since being in kennels, his confidence has had a bit of a knock and therefore, Scoob is looking for patient, understanding owners that can bring him out of his shell and form a strong bond with him.

Scooby can be rehomed as the only pet in the household or he may be able to live with another, medium sized dog. Another dog with high confidence may be the perfect match. A pal at his side that will occasionally tell him "It's okay" may be just what he needs. 

Scoob absolutely adores digging in our paddling pools and quite frankly, loves anything to do with water! He is a true seal.

He is very motivated by food and responds well to his handlers when they have tasty treats. He is fantastic on the lead and loves going for long walks where he can sniff and explore to his hearts content. 

This wonderful boy deserves some newfound stability and company.

Tony

Breed: Collie X, Male 

Date of Birth: 1st January 2017

Arrived to Kennels: 29th June 2024

 
Can I live with other dogs?

Potentially. Tony lived with a Staff X Labrador in his previous home. We believe he may do well in a home with a dog of a similar size.

Can I live with teenagers?

Yes

Can I live with young children?

Potentially (dog savvy)

Do I have any medical issues?

No 

Can I live with cats?

No

Am I good on the lead?

Yes but can sometimes be wary of traffic going past 

Tony is a spirited dog who is full of energy.

This handsome chap has come in to our care through no fault of his own and is now looking for understanding adopters, who can give him the stable environment and the active lifestyle that he needs.

Tony came in with another dog but sadly due to kennel spacing, they had to be separated. Tony isn't a huge fan of kennel life. He adores going out for lead walks and having off lead time in our secure fields but being in the kennel itself has freaked him out a little bit. He is a very calm, chilled boy who just wants a peaceful life. He loves cuddles and affection and is in desperate need of some home comforts. 

His favourite thing in the world is water, upon entering our fields he will beeline for the tap that is connected to the paddling pools, given the chance, he will dig and splash in the water all day. Adopters need to be aware that he also likes to do this with his water bowl within the kennel, we are unsure if he will do this once in a home but if you don't mind some soggy socks every now and again, Tony may be the dog for you. 

Training wise, we have noticed that Tony can be a little bit wary of traffic whilst out on a walk, this can be worked on with guidance and tips from our ACGAS trainer.  

 

*Favourite thing in the whole world - Water

*Reason for rehoming - Relocating to different country*

Poppy

Breed: Sprocker Spaniel, Female

Date of Birth: 31st March 2013

Arrived to Kennels: 12th July 2024

Can I live with other dogs? Potentially. Poppy has lived with another dog all her life.  

Can I live with teenagers?

Yes

Can I live with young children?

Potentially 

Do I have any medical issues?

Yes - Due to Poppy's breed, she can occasionally have an ear flare up. She is also on Propalin medication for incontinence. Please email into us for further information. 

Can I live with cats?

Potentially

Am I good on the lead?

Yes - Poppy is an absolute DREAM to walk. 

 

Poppy is a very gentle, loving little dog. She will make a wonderful companion for someone.

Poppy enjoys her walks and is a dream on the lead. In our enclosed field she is happy to do her own thing and after plenty of sniffs, she will come over to say hello for a quiet cuddle. 

Up until recently, Poppy always had her friend Bella at her side, another Sprocker. Sadly Bella passed away of a stroke at home before being signed over to the Rescue. Poppy has gone through such a big change in such a small amount of time and seems to be coping absolutely fantastically. She is an amazing little dog. As she is now in her twilight years and is in desperate need of some stability again, we would like her in a home asap. 

*Reason for rehoming - separation in home - selling of house*

Yogi

Date of Birth: 11th August 2022
