Am I not handsome😢? I’m really trying my best to look dashing, but I still haven’t found a family yet... Maybe my special person just hasn’t seen me yet – can you share to help me find them?🥰🙏

Now, let me tell you all about me! My name’s Bruno, I’m nearly 3 years old, I’m an amazing Malinois, and I’ve been told I’m quite the clever boy🤓 I LOVE learning new things and will happily show off my skills if treats are involved🍖🤩 I respond really well to positive training, and I’ve recently discovered that I’m rather talented at scent work too. Who knows? Maybe I have a future career as a detective, a mantrailer, or a professional sniffer of interesting bushes🔎

When I’m not busy using my giant brain, I’m usually looking for cuddles😍💕 Seriously, I am a world-class snuggler. I love being involved in whatever my humans are doing, but I’m also perfectly happy to curl up for a nap or entertain myself with a chew toy while you get on with your day😇

I currently live with another dog and we’re great pals🐶💕 I’ve also lived with cats before and was very polite with them, so I think I could happily share my home with feline friends too🐱🐾 Kids can be a bit loud and stressful for me, so a child-free home would be ideal.

My dream home would be with an active person or family in a rural area or a quiet neighbourhood🏡🌳 Somewhere I can enjoy adventures, training, cuddles, and all the good things in life. I’ve been waiting for my forever family for a few months now, and I’d really love it if I didn’t have to wait much longer🥹💔

If you live in Ireland and think we could be a perfect match, please fill out the adoption form. And if you can’t adopt me, sharing my post could help me reach the person who’s meant to be mine🥰🐾

*** Elderly Cat Looking for Retirement Home***

15 year old Flat Stanley was thrown out of his home when his elderly owner died a few months ago and the house was closed up😢. He went from being a much loved pet on his owner’s knee to being discarded on the road. An awful thing to happen to this very friendly loving ginger tom💔.

Thankfully a neighbour contacted us and Flat Stanley came in to CAW. He’s skin and bone, poor fellow wasn’t being fed and is too old to hunt. However he has seen the vet and had some tests done, thankfully he is in decent health. He was very matted in his back but has been shaved and is purrfectly happy now.

Sadly the resident cat won’t accept him so Flat Stanley is looking for a retirement home. He sleeps almost all day and still enjoys his food. He is good with dogs but would prefer to be an only cat. Stanley is neutered already.

If you can give this lovely boy a home please send us a DM🙏

Poor Rael is still waiting for a new family – can you give him a share to help him?🙏🙏

Sadly, Rael’s devoted owner is now receiving palliative care💔 His relatives really wanted to keep Rael in the family, but they’ve since realised that they don’t really have the time to give him the life he deserves. So we’re on a mission to find Rael the most loving home!

Rael is a gentle, super-sweet, 5-year-old Saluki boy who’s recently been through an awful lot. Rael would love a home with another friendly dog or two, as he absolutely loves doggie company and really needs it to feel safe. He’ll also need a secure garden, no cats, and a peaceful household with either no children, or respectful kids over the age of 10😇

This beautiful boy can be a little timid when he first meets you, but give him a bit of time and he’ll be utterly devoted to you💞 He’s house-trained, walks beautifully on the lead, and travels calmly in the car. Like most sighthounds, he enjoys his creature comforts, plenty of snoozing, and the odd burst of happy zoomies in the garden when the mood takes him😜

If you’re based anywhere on the island of Ireland and can offer Rael the loving home he deserves, please fill out our adoption form here:

Say hello to little Bailey🐶💛 This adorable Shih Tzu / Pomeranian boy is on the lookout for his forever home, so please give him a share to help find his match!🙏🏡

Bailey is 6 years old and was surrendered into our care after his family’s circumstances changed, and the poor little fella was spending far too much time on his own💔

Bailey is an active little dog who loves pottering about, going for walks, and enjoying playtime! That said, he also adores cuddles on the couch with his favourite person at the end of the day🥰

As a sensitive guy, Bailey needs a patient and gentle owner who will treat him like a real dog – not a toy – and who understands and respects his limits. He thrives on routine and structure in his everyday life. Bailey is good with other dogs and has happily lived with cats too 🐕🐈 However, he can get stressed easily, so he’s looking for a calm, child-free home where he can truly relax.

If you’re looking for a tiny adventure buddy and loyal companion, Bailey could be your perfect match😍🐾 Please fill out the adoption form below:

😍 Irresistible Indy 😍
This adorable little Italian Greyhound puppy was surrendered into our care earlier this week, as his owner realised that she didn’t have the time and energy to give him the attention he deserves💔 Poor little Indy was also crying loudly when left alone, and the neighbours in the apartment building weren’t happy. We’re now starting the search for Indy’s perfect forever home – please give him a share to help spread the word!🙏🏡

Indy is just 11 weeks old and absolutely bursting with pure puppy magic🥰✨ He’s an energetic, feisty little fella who loves to play and cuddle in equal measure. Indy is a confident pup who has been getting along brilliantly with the MUCH larger dogs in his foster home. If he annoys them a little too much with his puppy antics, he always listens to a growl and respectfully backs off like a clever boy. Indy has also been fantastic with the resident cat and even the chickens too🐔🐱

Since he’s still such a tiny baby, we’re looking for a home where Indy will have human company for most of the day. We’re also looking for either a child-free home or a home with gentle children over the age of 7 – little Indy has very sharp puppy teeth, which could accidentally upset a small child during playtime.

Please bear in mind that Italian Greyhounds are much more energetic than standard greyhounds and lurchers. Iggies have much faster metabolisms than their lazy, easy-going cousins, meaning they need more exercise, training, and mental stimulation. That said, little Indy absolutely adores the couch and loves snuggling up beside his humans for long cosy cuddles🥹🛋️

Our little sweet-pea Darragh is still waiting to find his forever home – can you believe it? Please give him a share so that we can finally find his special someone🙏🤞

Darragh is a sweet-natured Border Collie who’s about 3 years old. He’s one of the cuddliest dogs you’ll ever meet – he’s so loving and affectionate, and just adores being close to his people🥰 The reason he’s still waiting is because the poor fella is fearful of cars. As such, he needs a very rural home, tucked in away from the road, where he can be introduced to those scary cars very gradually over time.

Darragh gets along with most other dogs, but can be a little nervous around some. He could happily live with a friendly canine companion, but he would be just as content as your only dog too. Darragh has met a cat before and was gently curious – and after receiving a little swipe on the snout, respectfully gave her space🐾 So we reckon he could live happily alongside dog-savvy cats – yay😻!

As he’s a sensitive little guy, Darragh would prefer a peaceful home without any young children, but he’d enjoy having older kids to play with! Darragh is now fully house-trained and cannot WAIT to have a family of his very own. If you live in Ireland and would love to offer this cuddly, sweet-natured little Collie the loving home he deserves, please fill out the adoption form below:
