These 2 French Bull dogs were dumped near Castlerea and brought to the Roscommon Council Dog Pound. The female recently had pups. the two dogs were rehomed but then were surrendered back to the dog pound. There was little to none interest from the public to give them a home. Frenchie's were very popular once and you would pay a lot of money for them, but now they are not popular and can be difficult to rehome. Anyway we put these 2 in our Charities care and they went straight into a very experienced dog foster for assessment and care. Both do not like cats and both would run after hens and there is a lot of dogs like that and sometimes that can be trained out of them. The 2 dogs are now in our charities kennels in Kerry. the female has to be spayed and the male neutered, they need 2 vacc's three weeks apart,and microchipping. But the good thing is they are really nice dogs and will make great pets. They will be up for adoption once they are fully vaccinated

Next to look for a home is Suki 🤞

Suki is now 2 yrs old.
An ex farm girl.

Suki is fantastic to take walking. She is fearless and very confident.
Mature and sensible.
She is fine to live with any dog and we tested her with cats. She was gentle, just smelled them and walked away.
We tested her with sheep and she was not having any of it. So she will never bother livestock and why she is an ex farm girl.
She met all our teenagers so that age is perfect.
Suki does not know how to play with toys as she was never offered them and lately she has started to play with other dogs.
If your looking for an easy going Irish collie. Look no further 🐾

Looking for that special hoooman to take our Fonzy on his next journey 🤞

Fonzy is now 21 mnts old.
We rescued him from a living hell in the dark world. He was extremely hungry, many wounds and of course he had mange.

As a team we have managed to get him to a picture of health but now we need your help.

Fonzy is so terrified to give the world another chance. We feel he needs a calm private home rather than a very busy rescue centre to overcome his past.

What he needs.

✅ A calm mature home. Teenagers are fine as he loves our teenage volunteers.
✅ A well secure garden with a locked gate that nobody can let him out by mistake.
✅ A large crate with a cover as he loves his den ( here he loves his large wooden kennel in his run ) and it makes him feel safe so you can use when he wants time out or when you need to go out or by night. He is happy to sleep with no drama.
✅ Walk him on a slip lead but he knows us and our farm very well so he is confident here we would advise you to walk him with a harness and attaching slip lead for safety until he gains more confidence which could take up to six months.
✅ Fonzy loves dogs and shares with anyone who is still waiting for a home. God love him…. He watches them all leave.
No cats or small animals or livestock.

I know there is some amazing person out there that Im hoping I can find who will put their hand up to offer Fonzy what he needs. To us he is the most broken soul that just needs love and confidence.

***** No adoption fee *****
Foster with the view to adopt.

Please can we get him hundreds of shares to really get him that chance 🐾

This little lad was handed into our charities care from Galway. his owner is very sick and it was better for the little pet to start a new journey in life. He got neutered at the vets in Athlone and he has had his first vacc's and then his 2nd vacc in 3 weeks time. He is down at our Charities kennels in Kerry and will be ready for rehoming soon.
