✨ Meet Aspall ✨

If you're looking for a gentle, affectionate companion with plenty of love to give, then Aspall could be the girl for you.

This beautiful ex-racing Greyhound is ready to swap kennel life for cosy evenings, comfy beds and adventures with her forever family. She loves spending time with people and is always happy to make new friends, whether they have two legs or four!

Aspall enjoys heading out for walks with her Sighthound pals and can often be found showing off her zoomies in the paddocks before settling down for a well-earned snooze.

We think Aspall has all the makings of a fantastic pet. She's kind, loving and ready to start the next chapter of her life with a family who can show her what home life is all about.

Could Aspall be the missing piece in your family? ❤️🐾

Hi guys, Stormzy here!

Big news this week... apparently I've got someone interested in me! 😎
I mean, obviously. Have you seen me?

The team have been helping me get ready by taking me on lots of adventures around the centre. We've visited every single office so I can practise being brave in different indoor spaces. Truth be told, I sometimes find being in a new place a little bit scary, but I'm trying really hard and getting more confident every day 💪

I've also been spending loads of time in the real life room, getting used to all the strange noises and smells that come with living in a home. Washing machines, cupboards, people moving around... it's all very different from kennel life!

Everyone says I'm doing brilliantly, so paws crossed this could be the start of my next big adventure🐾❤️

Love,
Stormzy x

❤️ Rehomed and thriving! ❤️

A huge thank you to Johnny & Leonardo's adopters for giving these lovely boys such a wonderful home, and for sharing this heartwarming update with us 🥰

Here's what they had to say:

"We adopted Rocky and Otto at the end of March (previously called Leonardo and Johnny). They have settled in so well at home and have now started to enjoy our garden as well. They are very close and love to cuddle up together on a chair or bed. They sit and groom each other and have a good run around the house and garden chasing each other! They were very nervous when they first arrived home but now they both enjoy a stroke and an ear scratch and are getting more confident every day."

❤️ Rehomed and thriving! ❤️

Can you believe we rehomed Finley back in May? Time has absolutely flown!

We're delighted to see that he's settled beautifully into his new home and is enjoying everything that family life has to offer. From plenty of cuddles and fun to a healthy dose of cheekiness, it's safe to say Finley is living his best life. 🥰

We're particularly amused by his choice of favourite spot... we're pretty sure windowsills are usually claimed by cats, not dogs, but nobody seems to have told Finley! 😆

He's clearly landed on all four paws and is getting all the love, comfort and attention he deserves - Thank you to his wonderful adopters for giving him such a fantastic home!❤️

🍽️ Dinner time with Elvis! 🐱❤️

This handsome boy has come on leaps and bounds during his time with us, and we're so proud of how far he's come.

One of the biggest joys of rescue is watching animals grow in confidence, and Elvis is a perfect example of that. Last week, he even enjoyed dinner alongside one of our volunteers!

We're rehoming Elvis on behalf of the RSPCA SE Somerset Branch

You can read about Elvis on our website

🐾 Willis just loves the company of another dog! ❤️

This lovely lad has been thriving in foster care and has shown us just how much comfort and confidence he takes from having a canine companion by his side

As you can see, Willis is happiest when he's snuggled up with a friend! 🥰

We're looking to rehome him with another similar-sized dog in the home, as having a furry buddy around really helps him feel settled and secure!

Now all Willis needs is a forever home where he can continue enjoying the company of both his humans and his four-legged best friend 🏡
