Mayflower Animal Sanctuary Dog and cat rescue and re-homing sanctuary. To visit our sanctuary we operate by appointment ONLY This figure increases every year!

Mayflower Sanctuary rescues abused and abandoned dogs and cats providing care and sanctuary until permanent responsible homes can be found. Annually Mayflower rescues and re-homes over 550 dogs and 200 cats. Our rescue centre relies heavily on volunteers and public support without which we would not be able to continue. Mayflower Sanctuary is a Registered Charity No 1147324 and an associate member of ADCH.

💔 SHE DOESN’T NEED THE WHOLE WORLD TO LOVE HER. JUST ONE PERSON TO CHOOSE HER. 💜
Meet Bella, our beautiful Doberman X Staffy girl – what a mix, and what a character! 🐾
Bella is an incredibly intelligent young lady with so much potential just waiting to be unlocked. She is a clever girl who already knows some basic commands, but she is still learning and will need someone willing to invest time, patience and commitment into helping her become the very best version of herself.
✨ What Bella needs:�🏡 An adult only home where she can thrive just being Bella!�🐾 An experienced owner who understands high-drive, active breeds.�🎾 Plenty of physical exercise, mental stimulation and enrichment to keep her clever mind busy. So active people for her please! �🎓 Ongoing training, particularly to help her improve her lead walking.�❤️ Someone who will see her potential and give her the guidance, consistency and positive experiences she needs to flourish.
Bella will need to be the only dog living in the home. However, this doesn't mean she cannot enjoy seeing other dogs! She can be walked around other dogs and have opportunities to greet them. We would love to see her build positive relationships and confidence around well-rounded, established adult dogs at a pace that suits her.
Bella isn't looking for just any home. She needs someone who understands her needs, appreciates her intelligence and is ready to embrace the fun, challenges and rewards that come with a dog like her.
In return, you will have a bright, engaging and talented companion with so much to offer the right person.
💜 Could you be the experienced, adult-only home Bella has been waiting for?
Please get in touch with us if you think you could be the one to help Bella reach her full potential.�📞 Please call 01302 711330 for an appointment to meet her.
🐾 Bella has so much love to give… could you be the one to help her shine? 💜

DUE TO THE WEATHER THE KING WILLIAM DOG SOCIAL IS CANCELLED TODAY.
Due to the rather inclement weather, we have decided to cancel today’s Dog Social. We’re sorry for any disappointment caused but we wouldn’t want you or your floof to blow away! 🐾
We’ll still be serving up delicious fireside brunches (I mean where else can you get a delicious brunch by the fire?!) from 09:30am and Sunday lunch from midday

Our next King William Dog Social is dedicated to squishy faces, little snorts and some of the biggest personalities in the dog world, the Frenchies, Pugs and Bulldogs are taking over the King Billy garden! 🐾💛

Join us for a wonderful morning with French Bulldogs, English Bulldogs and Pugs.

📅 Sunday 25th October
⏰ 10am–11.30am
📍 The King William, Scaftworth

🎟️ Entry is £5 per dog, payable at the gate. This includes a pup cup and a donation to The Mayflower Animal Sanctuary.

🍞 Freshly made breakfast sandwiches will be available to purchase, alongside barista coffee and tea for the humans!

No dog? No problem! Whether you’re considering one of these breeds, desperately hoping to befriend one or simply fancy spending your Sunday morning surrounded by adorable squishy faces and happy little snorts, you’re very welcome to join us. 🥹

Not your dog’s week? Don’t worry! We’ll be hosting a different dog social every Sunday until our all-breeds Christmas Pawty on 13th December! 🎄🐶

We’ll also be introducing even more breeds and dog groups in the new year, so every pooch will get their turn.

No advance tickets are required, just turn up and pay by cash or card at the gate.

Tag someone whose little snorter needs to join us! 🐾

Thinking of going on a dog walk after the social? Please be aware of reports of seasonal canine illness and harvest mites following walks in nearby Harwell Woods.
