💙🐶 BEAR – ONE LITTLE FRENCHIE, ONE HUGE HEART, ONE LOVING HOME NEEDED
🚨LOOKING FOR FOSTER OR FOSTER-TO-ADOPT HOME ASAP 🚨
📍 Currently located: Petersfield, Hampshire GU32
🌟 Adoption fee reduced, RBU, post-adoption support & 4 weeks insurance provided upon adoption (on request) 🌟

🐾 Meet Bear

Bear is a 4-year-old French Bulldog boy with an enormous personality and an even bigger capacity for love. His latest foster home describes him as “intelligent, incredibly loving” and “a wonderful, wonderful little chap.” Bear doesn’t have any breathing problems at all.

✨ Highlights ✨

• SIZE: Small but sturdy
• NEUTERED: Yes
• CHARACTER: Extremely affectionate • Intelligent • Playful • Loving • People-orientated
• DOGS: best as only dog ; can become fixated/reactive towards dogs outside and needs careful management but loves to play with dogs after introduction
• CATS: No – strong fixation
• CHILDREN: Adult-only home preferred
• HOUSE-TRAINED: Yes

🐾 More About Bear

There is SO much to love about this little boy. ❤️

Bear absolutely adores human company. He is exceptionally affectionate, loves fuss and cuddles and really seems happiest when he has his person beside him. He can initially bark when meeting somebody unfamiliar, but quickly accepts people and then wants to make friends.

At home he settles well, sleeps beautifully and has lovely manners around food and treats. He enjoys playing with his soft toys, knows basic commands and will happily give you his paw.

He also travels brilliantly in the car and genuinely enjoys getting out and experiencing life with his person.

His latest carer noticed something rather touching on walks too. If she dropped the lead while walking through fields or woods, Bear became worried — he actually preferred knowing that his person was safely at the other end of it. 💙

Bear has a chase/fixation instinct. We already knew this from his previous trial, where he became intensely focused on the resident cat and later pulled towards a squirrel. We now also know that he can become very intensely focused on other dogs and, in the wrong circumstances, this can escalate.

🏡 Ideal Home

Although Bear is friendly with other dogs off lead, we now believe Bear needs to be the only pet in an adult home.

He would be wonderful for an individual or couple who want a very affectionate little companion and are happy to make him part of their everyday life.

A secure private garden would be ideal, together with access to quieter walking areas where distance from other animals can be maintained. His person needs to be confident handling dogs, understand canine body language and be willing to continue positive work on disengagement.

And importantly, Bear does NOT need to be a social butterfly. He doesn't need to greet every dog he sees or make canine friends. He can have a perfectly happy, fulfilled life enjoying his walks at a comfortable distance and putting all that enormous affection into his humans instead.

💞 Because behind this challenge is still the same Bear. The little dog who loves his people intensely. The boy who sleeps peacefully, travels beautifully, gives his paw, plays with his toys and just wants to enjoy life. His latest carer is heartbroken to let him go and still describes him as “a wonderful, wonderful little chap.”

We just need to stop trying to fit Bear into homes where he needs to share his world with other animals. Perhaps his perfect world is actually much simpler: Bear + his person. 💙

🩺 Health Information

Bear is healthy, vaccinated, neutered, microchipped and house-trained, with no known significant medical conditions. His latest carer reports no breathing difficulties and only occasional mild itching.

❤️🐶 MULAN – BEAUTIFUL, BRILLIANT & READY TO BECOME SOMEONE’S BEST FRIEND 🐶❤️
🇬🇧🐾 UK ABANDONDED 🐾🇬🇧 🏠 LOOKING FOR COMMITTED FOSTER OR FOSTER-TO-ADOPT HOME - OUR AIM IS TO GET HER OUT OF KENNELS ASAP🏠
📍 Currently with Leicester, partner rescue kennels
🌟 RBU, post-adoption support & 4 weeks insurance provided upon adoption (on request) 🌟

Sometimes rescues help each other — because ultimately it doesn't matter whose logo is above a dog's photo. What matters is finding THAT dog the right home. ❤️

We recently received a call from another rescue asking whether we could help find a very special home for Mulan.

Mulan is only around 9–10 months old, a Belgian Malinois cross girl who was found as a stray. Nobody came to claim her, and she is now growing up and very struggles in rescue kennels.

And what a girl she is. 😍 Clever, incredibly sociable, affectionate, eager to learn and absolutely full of potential. She adores people, is good with children and can socialise well with friendly dogs.

But kennel life is becoming increasingly difficult for such a young, intelligent and people-orientated dog and she struggles very much with being separated in kennels. Mulan needs LIFE — walks, training, learning, adventures and, most importantly, her own people.

✨ Highlights ✨
• SIZE: Large, still a young growing dog
• SPAYED: Not yet – due to her age and breed, spaying ideally should be at age 13-14 months; rescue will contribute
• CHARACTER: Super sociable • Affectionate • Extremely clever • Active • Eager to learn
• DOGS: Can socialise well with friendly dogs during controlled introductions; can currently be reactive when seeing dogs on walks
• CHILDREN: Good with children, best with 12+ due to youthful enthusiasm
• CATS: No information
• TRAINING: Very intelligent, food-motivated and quick to learn

🐾 More About Mulan
Mulan has one of those wonderful dog brains that loves to do something. She is incredibly clever, learns quickly with treats and has already made excellent progress with the team working on her lead training.

She is friendly with everyone she meets and loves being around people. She can also enjoy the company of sociable dogs when introductions are properly managed.
Mulan is still effectively a big puppy, and we don't expect her to arrive knowing everything. What she needs is someone excited about teaching her. Positive training, puppy or young-dog classes, enrichment and giving that clever brain a job will help turn all her potential into something wonderful. 🐾

Her biggest challenge at present is being left alone. Mulan struggles with separation and needs a home where somebody can initially be with her virtually all the time or take her along with them.

Teaching her to stay alone will need to happen VERY gradually. Her future family must be prepared for this to take several months rather than expecting her to cope immediately.

🏡 Ideal Home
This is not a dog for somebody simply attracted to how beautiful Belgian Malinois are.
We are looking for people with experience of Malinois, or similarly intelligent, active dogs — people who genuinely enjoy training and want a dog to become part of their lifestyle.

Someone home-based, early retired but active, working from home, or able to take Mulan with them would be ideal. She needs proper daily exercise, mental stimulation, positive training and people committed to helping her develop into the incredible adult dog she has every potential to become.

And the reward? Potentially your clever, loyal, adventure-loving best friend for the next 15 years. ❤️

💞 Mulan didn't choose to become a stray. She didn't choose kennel life. But somewhere out there could be the person who looks at this brilliant young girl and sees everything she CAN become. She has the brains. She has the personality. She has the love.
Now she needs someone prepared to give her commitment to bring out the very best in her. ❤️🐾

🩺 Health Information
Mulan is fit and healthy, vaccinated, flea-treated and wormed. She is not yet spayed due to her young age and size; this needs to be addressed when she is 13-14 months old, with rescue contribution towards the cost.

💙🐶 ZACH – A CLEVER, VERY FRIENDLY, PLAYFUL BOY WHO JUST LOVES LIFE🐶💙
🚨🏠 FOSTER NEEDED 🏠🚨
🇬🇧🐾 UK SURRENDER 📍 Currently located: Nottinghamshire NG17
📍 Foster ideally not too far from Burton-upon-Trent DE15
🌟 RBU, post-adoption support & 4 weeks insurance provided upon adoption (on request) 🌟

🚨 WE HAVE JUST A FEW DAYS TO FIND ZACH A FOSTER HOME BEFORE OWNER GOES TO HOSPITAL!

Meet Zach, a gorgeous 15-month-old medium-sized smooth-haired Border Collie boy who absolutely LOVES people, other dogs, children and, most importantly... BALLS! 🎾💙

Sadly, due to his owner's health difficulties, Zach urgently needs somewhere safe to go. His owner can only keep him for a few more days, so we really need your help!

✨ Highlights ✨
• SIZE: Medium (approx. 17 kg)
• NEUTERED: Not yet – will be arranged by rescue
• CHARACTER: Affectionate • Clever • Playful • Friendly • Energetic
• DOGS: Very friendly, loves playing with other dogs
• CATS: Not specifically tested, reportedly friendly with other animals
• CHILDREN: Loves children, described as gentle with them
• HOME LIFE: Needs housetraining, dislikes crates and prefers human company

🐾 More About Zach

Zach is a sweet, sociable boy who can be a little shy initially but quickly warms up to kind people. He absolutely adores playing fetch and could happily spend hours running after his favourite ball! He also loves other dogs and enjoys playing with them.

He's a typical intelligent young Collie who needs an active home, plenty of mental stimulation and positive training. His lead walking is generally good, although he has a strong instinct to chase bicycles and scooters, so this will need careful management.

Zach is very attached to his person and can become upset when left alone, although he settles fairly quickly. He strongly dislikes being crated and will cry.

🏡 Ideal Foster Home

We are particularly looking for a foster in or reasonably close to Burton-upon-Trent, as Zach will need to be neutered by rescue shortly.

An active, patient family who understand Border Collies would be wonderful. A secure garden, plenty of opportunities for exercise and games, and someone happy to continue his housetraining would help Zach settle.

Another friendly playful dog could be a lovely bonus!

💞 Zach is still a young boy with so much potential. He hasn't done anything wrong — his owner's circumstances have simply changed, and now he urgently needs someone to give him a chance. 💙

🩺 Health Information

Zach is vaccinated and microchipped, with no known medical conditions. He is not yet neutered; neutering will be arranged and covered by rescue.

💔 PLEASE HELP US GET BELLA TO SAFETY. HER EMOTIONAL WELLBEING REALLY DEPENDS ON IT!
🚨🏠 URGENT FOSTER NEEDED – QUIET, UNDERSTANDING HOME 🏠🚨
🇬🇧🐾 UK SURRENDER 📍 Currently located: Nottinghamshire NG17

We received a call asking us to urgently rehome a dog. But when we heard the full story, we realised just how urgent this situation really was. Not for the people, but for the dog herself.

Four months ago, Bella was privately adopted by a family with two toddlers under 3, who had never owned a dog before. She was described as a gentle, affectionate, slightly shy girl, wonderful with children and everyone she met.

But then came that familiar phrase: "She suddenly changed out of nowhere." And honestly, when I hear such words from people, my heart always sinks.

The family described Bella, when asked to go to crate, becoming barking, yelping, running around the house and urinating or defecating indoors, despite previously being fully housetrained.
“she normally listens when u say bed she will go to her crate but lately she will run around house barking and yelping and weeing and pooing everywhere”
“ She used to like walks but now when try to put on her lead she wees and poos.”

💔 We don't want to blame her family. We believe they have most likely been trying their best, loving Bella but genuinely struggling to understand what has happened. But dogs speak a different language from us. They communicate discomfort, fear and stress through subtle signals that are very easy to miss if they have never learnt to recognise them.

💔 To everyone, who understand dogs, these are deeply concerning signs. Dogs communicate through their behaviour, and when a previously gentle, relaxed dog changes so dramatically, something is very wrong. We cannot know exactly what has caused Bella's distress, but we are seriously concerned that she no longer feels safe.
We don’t want to blame family, they most likely were really trying their best. But tha lack of knowledge about dogs lead to dog been misunderstood so much.

🐾 Meet Bella

Bella is approximately 3-4 years old, a gentle, sensitive female crossbreed who was previously affectionate, enjoyed her walks and responded beautifully to kindness.

✨ Highlights ✨
• SIZE: Lower-medium
• SPAYED: Yes
• CHARACTER: Gentle • Sensitive • Affectionate • Shy • Soft-natured
• DOGS: Previously lived with dogs, friendly
• CATS: Good, peacefully ignores them
• CHILDREN: Adults or calm, respectful children 12+
• HOME LIFE: Previously fully housetrained; currently experiencing significant distress

🏡 The Foster Home Bella Desperately Needs
We are looking for a QUIET, PATIENT, UNDERSTANDING foster home where Bella can simply decompress. No pressure, no forced interactions, no expectations that she must immediately behave like a happy, confident dog.

She needs people who understand canine body language and allow her to approach them when she feels ready. A peaceful adult household would be ideal, although calm older children aged 12+ may be considered.

A securely enclosed garden is important, as Bella may try to escape through gaps. A calm friendly resident dog could be considered.

❤️ We want Bella to have the chance to become the girl she was before these difficult months — gentle, loving, enjoying her walks and gradually learning to trust again.

💞 PLEASE HELP US. Bella's family need her moved as soon as possible, and we are genuinely worried about her wellbeing. She doesn't need someone to fix her. She needs someone to give her peace, patience and a safe place to recover.

🩺 Health Information

Bella is spayed and microchipped. Vaccination status is unknown. No known medical conditions have been reported, but her recent behavioural changes will be taken into consideration to rule out underlying health problems.
