Danemere Animal Rescue is open to the public from 11:30 - 3:00 every day.
Home checks are required before any dog is rehomed. All of our dogs are vaccinated, microchipped, de-flea'd, wormed and neutered (if old enough). The adoption fee for all dogs is £125.00 which is non-refundable.
If you have seen a dog on our website / Instagram / Facebook page that you are interested in please give us a call on 01905 345655 to discuss whether they are still available. Please be aware that we are unable to reserve any animal via phone or email. You will have to visit us and meet the animal before we can reserve the animal to you and start the adoption process.
Upon arrival please report to reception.
Please take a look on our homing procedures page for more information.
The dogs below are available for rehoming. Please take a look:
Billy - Pointer X, 2 yrs
Hi im Billy, I’m a 2 year old Pointer cross, I’m currently living at Danemere Rescue after being returned twice by my previous owner,
My previous family although they loved me very much struggled with my size as a big growing boy and because I can be a little bit unpredictable with other dogs they felt unable to safely handle me when out and about and they made the hard decision to allow Danemere to find me my final forever home.
My handlers at Danemere are training me to walk well on a figure of 8 lead and I have shown them I can be gentle on the lead, they also know that if there is enough distance between me and another dog I don’t take much notice.
I am very nervous of other dogs when they’re close to me which may sometimes look like I’m angry, but I’m not i am just wary, I have had a bad experience and now I struggle to be brave around them, sometimes I am fine but I don’t want to be put in a position where I may be hurt, I need a family who are going to respect my boundaries and accept that I may not ever want to play with other dogs. I love people and I am more than happy with the love and attention I get from people!
Because I am an anxious boy and I struggle being left alone for long periods of time, being in kennels has taught me how to be slightly more independent as the staff cannot be by my side all the time so I still like to bark to get their attention and I am so happy when I see them walking up the path to my kennel, but, as much as I love the staff at Danemere I would really love to find a family who can help build my confidence and who are willing to show me that they will always come back.
I long to know what it’s like to have someone that won’t abandon me when things get difficult or give up on me because I have my quirks, if you do take a chance on me I promise to show you I am a loyal and loving boy who has stolen the hearts of all the staff here, could I steal yours too? I would love for you to come and meet me and show you how much of a good boy I am.
Alfie - Cockerpoo, 7 yrs D.O.B 02/2019 - RESERVED
Alfie has been a regular guest in our boarding kennels however his owner had a change in circumstances and could no longer provide Alfie the attention he needed.
The previous owner has said that he started to show some guarding behaviours over items he would steal. the previous owner had considered the fact that they were not around as much anymore and that Alfie was being under stimulated and turned to getting his stimulation / attention from stealing which resulted in the bad attention = better than no attention dilemma as the owner no longer had the time to be with him like they used to he was likely struggling a lot.
Whilst we have known Alfie (a few years) as a team, we all agree that he is one of the friendliest cockapoos we have looked after. Alfie has been nothing but great - very friendly with people and other dogs.
In the kennels there has never been any food/possession/people guarding shown
Alfie does pull on the lead so will need further training but is getting better at walking on his harness once he has calmed down from initial excitement of going for walkies
Very happy, sociable, sweet, friendly boy.
Playful - likes to play tug of war, fetch and enjoys challenges such as food enrichment to get his brain ticking
- Adult only home due to previous owners reason for rehoming
- never lived with cats however has been introduced happily
- Does not like a crate
- Loves a fuss.
- Great with other dogs
- will need a home that can provide him with stimulation and company
Meet Narla the German Shepherd!
Narla is not with us as a rescue at the moment she is a boarder.
Sadly Narla is finding herself on her holidays with us more and more regular and for extended periods of time.. Spending more time in kennels than at home. Narla's owner has started to think about long term and so her owner has asked if we could put some information online, put the feelers out to see whether we could gain some interest and help find her a loving new home.
- 5 years old
- Must be the only pet in the household
- LOVES playing in water
- Loves walkies - good lead manners
- Very wary with new people however is great and very loving once she knows and trusts you - it just takes a little bit of time.
Narla has been in and out of kennels and sometimes spending a month and more with us. Poor Narla needs stability, love and time. If you think that you could potentially give this gorgeous girl a new lease of life please get in touch with us.
Bruce - French Bulldog, 2 yrs
Bruce has came into our care due to a relationship breakdown and the previous owner working more hours which in turn meant that Bruce was sadly being left for long periods of time. This was an incredibly difficult decision but one that was made with Bruce's best interests at heart as it was unfair on him and not the life that he was used to.
Bruce is very friendly with people, very cuddly and was described to us as a shadow - always following his favourite person around, even if that meant having an audience on the toilet!
- Loves a fuss
- Adores playing - especially fetch with balls, he will huff and puff at you to make sure you throw it for him.
- Enjoys Walkies - was used to 3 - 4 per day
- Likes listening to the radio
- has lived with 2 cats in his previous home and got on very well
- Doesn't like shouting / anyone going near his face head on with quick movements - this makes him nervous
- Ok with other dogs however has been known to become a little bit too excited with them (He will be neutered whilst in our care)
- Lots of energy & can become hyperactive - likely due to being left for long periods of time and being a young boy
- Has lived with children (8 & 13yrs old) and has also been around an autistic child (>5yrs) with no problems
- Walks well on the lead
- Basic commands: sit, stay, in/out
Ideal home: Someone who is around the majority of the day / work from home or someone who works shorter shift patterns as he was left for 12+ hours before, he will need someone who can provide company for him. Bruce would benefit from a household that can help burn off all of that pent up energy and give plenty of opportunities to play!
