the future of animals in all of Ireland. Tipperary, but we are happy to help any animal that we can. we have a very strong network of people and we work alongside a qualified and professional positive dog behaviorist/trainer.

Stinky is now seeking a forever home 🏡

Stinky arrived to us from Dublin County Dog Shelter after he was picked up as a stray and thankfully never reclaimed.

Stinky clearly had never been groomed, his coat was caked and matted to his skin and his nails painfully curled into his feet. He also had a big abscess underneath his neck that burst and was oozing pus.

Thankfully that's all behind him now as he is now fully recovered, he is now castrated, nails clipped and ingrown dew claws removed and he is now looking for his own forever home.

Stinky is about 2-3 years old and a bichion x sh*tzu maybe with some Maltese in there were not sure of his mix. He gets on well with male and females and is crate trained, his house training is still ongoing.

His ideal home will be:

• with or without another dog
• a commitment to a grooming schedule
• continued house training
• he can live with dog savvy kids and parents
• No cats

If youd like to offer him his own forever home please pm the page to start the process ✨️

Meet Beautiful Bindi ❤️

Bindi arrived to us a few weeks ago from Dublin County Dog Pound after she was picked up as a stray and never reclaimed.

Bindi is about 3-4 years old and a female lurcher .. She is small ( wears a 24 inch coat ) and is about 24/25 inches to her shoulder.

Bindi was really upset when she arrived... and as the days went on started to get really swollen around her belly and started to produce milk ... and we started to suspect the pitter patter of tiny paws 🐾 We got her to the vets and thankfully it was a phantom pregnancy... and that is why she was so stressed and out of sorts.

Bindi has since been on medication and now been spayed .. and everything has started to settle down ... she a absolutely adores her humans and loves her walks, dinner and bed. Shes not a fan of jackets but we've been trying to teach her there fun and keep her cosy but shes not taking the hint so far 🤣

Bindi is now looking for her own forever home with the following requirements:

• Ideally as an only dog
• House or appartment living
• No cats
• she is muzzle trained and has started her crate training
• she is fully vaccinated microchipped and spayed. She also has her own pet passport but wont be able to travel until January.
• She is a lazy little one, she enjoys her walks and then to relax for the day.

If youd like to offer her a forever home please pm the page to start the process ✨️

Just a reminder for those new to the page.

We finish up rehoming on Saturday the 13th of December until Friday the 2nd of January. Meaning we will be closed to rehomings from Sunday 14th - Friday 2nd.

Our last day for dogs to travel to their Irish homes will be Saturday the 13th.

Our first day of rehoming appointments will be Saturday the 3rd of January.

This week and next week will see the last of our Transports abroad.

Profiles of dogs looking for forever homes will continue to feature and we hope we can get them into homes before we shut down.

For everyone who has adopted, Fostered, transported, listened and helped over the last year thank you ❤️

Here's to the next 17 days ❤️

Sam is facing a Christmas in Kennels and while its not the worst thing to have happened him in his short life we would love if he could be settled in a forever home instead ❤️

Sam arrived to us from Carlow Kilkenny Dog Pound after he was picked up as a stray and never reclaimed.

He arrived from the pound with his friend Lucy ( who's off to Sweden this week ) Sam was a really upset fella when he arrived, he didnt know what it was like to have a collar put on or put on a lead to walk, and be would do a Saluki scream which terrified us all 😂

Happily thats all behind him now as hes used to walking on his lead, having collars put on and off and even coats on and off ✔️

He is now looking for his own forever home with the following requirements;

• With or without another dog 🐕

• No cats please

• Dog savvy kids and parents

• He is now fully crate trained 👏

• He walks well on his lead and in his harness

If you'd like to offer him his own forever home please pm the page to start the process ✨️

Meet Mabel ❤️

The mom of your cute frenchie pups 💔

Mabel arrived to us from Dublin County Dog Shelter in September after she had beem picked up as a stray and never reclaimed. Most likely an ex breeding bitch .. at her time of spay it was clear she had multiple c-sections that had left her insides in a mess.

She arrived to us in season which delayed her going for her spay, then as you can see in her first photos she had pollop type growths in her ears, combined with a deep ear infection that hadn't been treated and the pollops were obscuring the ear canals so we couldn't get treatment down where it was needed.

She started a treatment plan, first with topical treatment of the pollops and cleaning up her ears, oral antibiotics and steroids to take away the itchiness of her skin and open up her ear cannals... once we had this under control our vets went in and removed the pollops and she was spayed aswell.

We then went back on more treatment for her ears now that we could get access to the canals ! Mabel had her last check up today and happily all infection is now gone .. its been a long 6 week process but we've got there 🥰

Mabel has been a trooper but obviously dislikes her ears being cleaned ... she only tolerates short bursts at a time something her new family will need to continue to work on and keep an eye on.

Mabel is also on a low dose steroid daily which we will fund for the rest of her life at our vets.

Mabel is now looking for her own forever home with the following requirements:

• Ideally as an only dog.
• Maintence of her ears and skin folds for life.
• She is fully crate trained.
• An understanding of her breed and her exercise restrictions.
• She is on a Salmon based kibble diet and we would recommend continuing with it.

A huge thanks to who have taken care of her over the last few weeks ❤️

Mabel would love a home where she can relax and have a life of love and no expectations.

If you'd like to offer her a forever home please pm the page to start the process.

Haribo needs your help...

An older lurcher boyo... left behind after his working days, an old hernia, a big belly full of worms, but yet a gentle and sweet soul who now wants to spend his days in bed and wearing his pj's ❤️ He attended dog yoga in Dublin at the weekend and LOVED it, saying hello to everyone, walking through the busy streets of Dublin .. He was just amazing !

As older settled lurcher he is the ideal dog, he sleeps all day, he doesn't snore 😴 He loves his pj's.. a 5 mins walk is more enough and be home to snoozes the day away ...

Haribo arrived to us from Laois Dog Pound after he was picked up as a stray and never reclaimed. He arrived to us for a fresh start and a chance at a forever home 🏡

Haribo attended our vets, where he was castrated and also had a hernia repaired, a big op for this chap.. but now he's home and recovering well, but he would really love for a forever home 🏡

Haribo is about 5 years old, and he is fully vaccinated microchipped and castrated. He also has his own passport so he can travel abroad for a new home.

His ideal home would be:

• Either an only dog or with a nice female friend.

• No cats.

• Dog savvy kids and parents.

• He has started his crate training and is clean in his kennel overnight so housetraining should come easily to him.

He would adore a comfy cosy bed to snuggle into and enjoy his new life.

If youd like to offer him his own forever home please pm the page to start the process ✨️

Meet Chloe & Peanut

Both of these lovely cats are looking for forever homes.

Chloe - 1st photo is a 1 and a half year old cat who is spayed and being rehomed due to her owner moving house and the landlord not allowing her to come. She was attacked by a dog ( hence her eye ) but has recovered well and it causes her no issues.

Peanut - 2nd photo has been in our care over 2 years and has had no home offers - she did go on trial once and was returned the next day as she meowed. She is currently in foster with dogs, kids and other cats and perfect.

Both are litter trained and indoor cats ( with outdoor access in time )

If youd like to offer one a forever home please pm the page to start the process.

WE ARE NOT TAKING ANYMORE APPLICATIONS FOR MARLEY

Unfortunately after 5 days in his new home Marley has been returned due to the resident cats being upset by his presence.

Unfortunately this is really frustrating as we clearly state in his post resident cats need time to adjust to a dog and this is the main reason the majority of rescues dont bother rehoming to homes with cats.

Here is his previous post and the requirements he needs, if you previously applied, please pm the page to have your application reopened.

Meet Marley

Marley was surrendered into our care after his owner had him 2 weeks and then hurt his back and wasnt able for a young energetic lab mix puppy.

Marley is a male Black Lab mix puppy around 12 weeks old. Who will be medium to large when fully grown.

Marley has since been to our vets and had his first vaccine and been microchipped. Hes been lucky to get a foster home with Audrey & family where hes been learning all about life as a puppy.

Here are some words from his foster mom:

‘Marley’…..the best boy! ❤️Doesn’t live up to his name! Currently In foster with dogs; cat; kids! Loves them all, no problems!
Crate trained and sleeps all night without any ‘accidents’ in his bed. Extremely clever! Loves to play ball. Is very eager to learn and will be an excellent dog to have for an active family. Walks well on his lead.
Fabulous little fella!

His ideal home will be:

• With or without another dog- he will need continued socialising with dogs to enable him to grow into a happy healthy social adult.

• He can live with dog savvy cats- Cats should have experience of living with dogs, or owners prepared to give it 6 weeks for them to learn.

• He is currently in foster with children so can continue to live with respectful children.

• He is crate trained and we would advise a new home to continue it.

• Marley is now fully vaccinated.

• Irish homes only as hes not passported

• He is not yet castrated due to his age, however this is covered as part of your adoption fee at our vets when he is old enough.

What a wonderful day yesterday ❤️ Part 2

A huge thank you to Stefanai who organised Dog Yoga with the wonderful people at yesterday.

We had a truly wonderful day, surrounded by some of our past adopters and lots of supporters who joined us for the day.

We got to enjoy a day away, and Haribo and Grizzly were just the best enjoying their day in dublin and taking it all at ease.

Yet again we are so thankful for the amazing people who choose to support us ❤️

Until next time 💓
