New dog listed for rescue at the Edinburgh Dog and Cat Home - Oscar

Oscar is described as a Yorkshire Terrier. Home Requirements An experienced owner Oscar is looking for an owner who have owned a cheeky terrier before. He would like someone to keep him company all day until he settles in. Oscar needs an adult only home where he won’t spend any time with children and needs to be the only pet. Oscar is a sweet boy who, although can be a little unsure around new people to begin with, soon warms up quickly with the help of a tasty treat. He is very affectionate and loving once he knows you and eagerly pops beside you for some fussing. He enjoys his walks and will happily trot beside you ready to explore new adventures. Oscar does have doggy friends his own size but is worried by large dogs and needs an understanding owner who will work on his confidence around them. Being a hairy dog, Oscar’s coat must be maintained regularly, however, he can become worried when he has to have his face groomed so requires a patient owner who will continue to work on building his confidence in this area. He loves treats and enrichment toys such as a likimat with some tasty cheese so this will help build a positive experience for him. Oscar has undergone some veterinary treatment whilst with us. More information will be discussed with successful applicants.

New dog listed for rescue at the Edinburgh Dog and Cat Home - Gin

Gin is described as a Lurcher. Can live with Children Gin has been matched to several applicants already so we cannot accept any new interest for her. Gin is looking for an owner who can continue to build her confidence. She would prefer to have a garden and would like to be kept company for some of the day.

She can be a shy girl but has a wonderful nature and is very sweet and affectionate once she is familiar with you. She can lack in confidence at times so would like an owner who can give her the encouragement for when she feels worried. Gin likes chasing after soft squeaky toys in the paddock and loves going down to the beach where she can stretch out her long legs. She likes her walks but, even though she lives in Scotland, she is not a fan of the rain and enjoys the finer things in life on these days and loves to curl up in her cosy bed for some much-needed beauty sleep. She isn’t too keen on boisterous dogs but is happy to ignore them when on her walks. Gin enjoys the quiet life, and she will make a fantastic family pet in her new home. Gin has received some veterinary treatment whilst with us. More information will be discussed with successful applicants.

Ivy is a sweet and loving girl, she is at her happiest when she is surrounded by the people, she loves the most.

She enjoys playing with her toys and if she isn’t running around squeaking her favorite monkey, she will be encouraging you to have a good game of football! Ivy has not been well cared for in the past, she is a little thin but with all the biscuits she has been getting we are sure she will meet her weight target soon!

New dog listed for rescue at the Dumfries & Galloway Canine Rescue Centre - Finn

Finn is described as a black GSD cross. Fabulous Finn! This is the very handsome, very playful Finn. He is a big guy with a big personality. He loves nothing more than cuddle and a fuss from his human friends (of which he has many as he just loves everyone he meets). Due to his size and strength we are looking for a home without young children but dog savvy older children (10 years+) would be fine. He is an active boy looking for a lifestyle to match and would need an owner who could handle his strength out and about and help him with further training. History Finn was originally here as a pup. He found a very loving home but sadly due to a change of circumstance for his owner they were no longer able to care for him. Re-homing Criteria Our very fabulous Finn needs a home with out cats and young children. Finn could live with another dog who matched his exuberance for life! We would consider homes with dog savvy older children of 10 years + purely due to him not realising his size or strength! Finn absolutely adores human company so we would be looking for a home where someone is around most of the time for him . A totally secure garden with 6 foot fencing is a must as this young lad is still working on his recall training ! We would be looking for a rural setting for his new home away from the hustle and bustle of town life. Finn is a big boy who does not realise his strength so an active family who are happy to carry on with his basic training is an absolute must ! We all adore Finn at the centre and all we want for him is for his well deserved happy ending !

New dog listed for rescue at the Dumfries & Galloway Canine Rescue Centre - Frank

Frank is described as a brindle and white Bull Lurcher. Very friendly, sweet boy looking for a second chance. Introducing Frank! Frank is a happy go lucky kind of guy. He hasn't been with us long so we will update this as we get to know him but so far we have found him to be a lovable goofball. He enjoys running around our paddock with a female dog we have here on site and has loved all the staff and volunteers he has met so far. He can be a little strong on the lead so this definatly needs some work. Due to his size, strength and our lack of history on him we will be looking for a home without children and cats. History This poor lad came to us as a stray and was never claimed. Re-homing Criteria Our fabulous Frank is looking for an active family who have the time to give him all the attention he deserves. We would be looking for a family who loves to be out and about , he can be quite strong on the lead so we would need someone who is willing to carry on his basic training. Frank is the most loveable lad , but due to our lack of knowledge of his previous life we would not consider homes with children under the age of 12 years. We also have no background on how he would be with a cat in the home, so again we would look for him to be rehomed where there are no cats. With careful introductions at the centre we can see Frank living with a well established female in the home. Frank will need a fully secure garden with fencing of at least 6 foot so he does have a safe and secure space to play in his own space ! Frank is a gentle giant who has not had the best start in life. He has come on leaps and bounds in the short time he has been with us, and has shown his cuddly side to anyone who wants some love. Could you be the one to be Frank's happy ever after ! Homefinder Questionnaire If you'd like to help rehome Frank simply complete the Homefinder Questionnaire to get started.

New dog listed for rescue at the Saving and Rehoming Strays - Ruby

Ruby is described as a white and brown mixed. Ruby - In Ayr looking for a home ❤️ Ruby (DOB 10/11/17) is a super tiny little dot of a dog that was found living on the streets of Romania where we suspect she had been thrown on the street after living in a home 😢 She is super tiny and weighs about 3-4 kilos and is a little cuddle monkey once she knows and trusts you. She can be a little bit shy at first and for this reason we are looking for an adult only home for her, but other than that there aren’t really any restrictions and she would suit many different homes. She is clean in the house, walks on a lead, travels well in the car and is crate trained too. She has had all her vaccinations to UK standards and has had blood tests in RO for brucellosis and her 4DX snap test for for tick Bournemouth diseases including heart worm and also been laboratory tested in the UK for brucellosis too. If you have room in your heart and home for this sweet, loving girl please pop onto our website at www.savingandrehomingstrays.org and complete an application form and if you can’t adopt her, please share her and wide as the more shares she gets, the higher her chances are of finding a home. Please note a £500 adoption fee and virtual home check will be needed in order to adopt Ruby xx

New dog listed for rescue at the Saving and Rehoming Strays - Tiny

Tiny is described as a cream mixed. Tiny - In Ayr looking for a home ❤️ Meet Tiny (DOB 27/5/24) ❤️ Tiny is not neutered due to his age (the adopter must contractually agree to do this once he is old enough), microchipped, fully vaccinated, up-to-date with flea and worm treatments and has an up-to-date EU passport. Tiny and his two brothers, Titch and Teenie, were found abandoned in carrier bag in a rubbish bin when they were tiny puppies. It was touch and go for a while whether or not they would survive as they were covered in lice, ticks and fleas and heavily infested with worms 😢 Thanks to the amazing care of their rescuers, all three brothers pulled through and went into foster with a lovely German lady living in Romania. Under her care, the dogs have thrived and become beautiful well balanced little puppies who love everyone and everything. Unfortunately poor little Tiny took ill on the day of his original planned transport and was unable to travel with his two other brothers, but he is now back to full health and at our rescue centre in Ayr. We do not know their parentage, but due to their current size, we expect them to be on the larger side of medium when they are fully grown. All three brothers are very well socialised, but have not had any basic training, so the adopters must be willing to put in the work that a young puppy needs. Tiny will fit beautifully into many different homes and as the pups have been around children from a very young age, can be rehomed with younger children that understand how to behave around dogs. If you have room in your heart and home for this sweet, loving boy please pop onto our website at www.savingandrehomingstrays.org and complete an application form. Please note a £500 adoption fee and virtual home check will be needed in order to adopt Tiny x

New dog listed for rescue at the Saving and Rehoming Strays - Oscar and Freya

Oscar and Freya is described as a white and black/grey mixed. Oscar DOB 1.6.16 Neutered male Freya DOB 15.12.13 Neutered Female Oscar and Freya have found themselves back in rescue after the sad passing of their mummy ❤️ Freya had been in her home for nearly 10 years and Oscar for about 7 and because of this we are looking to rehome them as a bonded pair as they really do love each other and having already lost their family, we think it’s important that they have each other 😢 Oscar is a small medium and the more confident of the two and never stops wagging his tail ❤️ He loves everyone and just wants to be loved and fussed, but that said he is not a needy dog and can also be left to play and cosy up with his best friend Freya. Freya is a little more shy until she knows you and quite often hangs back and lets Oscar steal the limelight, but she also loves a fuss and us a very gentle soul. Both dogs are clean in the house, will happily use a crate and travel well in a car. I don’t think they have had many lead walks of late, but both walk nicely on a lead once they are settled. This adorable pair would suit many different homes, but we would like them to go to a quieter one and if there are any children, would prefer them to be older. They have always lived in a home with a garden and we would prefer them to continue to live in this environment and they would make fabulous companions for an older person or couple. They are currently in foster in Ayr Scotland If you have room in your heart and home for these sweet, loving dogs please pop onto our website at www.savingandrehomingstrays.org and complete an application form. Please note a £500 adoption fee and virtual home check will be needed in order to adopt Oscar and Freya x
