***If you are interested in adopting lovely Nugget please fill in the form giving as much information as you can. Please do not message the page as we our volunteers need time and space to go through the forms and don't have time to reply. Thank you ***
This stunning Cocker Spaniel is coming into our care this weekend, so we’re starting the search for her forever home already. Can you give her a share to help us? 🐾💕
Nugget is 4 years old and is sadly being surrendered through no fault of her own. Her owners have three young kids, including a young baby and a toddler, and they simply don’t have the time to give her the attention she deserves💔
She’s a really lovely, friendly girl who’s used to being part of a busy family. Nugget is great with other dogs and enjoys meeting them while out and about on her walks. We don’t know how she feels about cats though, so we’ll be looking for a cat-free home.
She’s a very easy-going girl when she goes to the groomers and she’s a star patient at the vets too🥰 As she’s an active Cocker, we’d love to find her a family where she’ll get plenty of fun walks, adventures and playtime. 🐾
If you live anywhere in Ireland and would love to offer Nugget the second chance she needs right now, please fill out our adoption form below:

Huge thanks to our wonderful volunteer driver David for doing so many trips for us over the last few months! 🥰
Since he started volunteering with us, David has safely driven so many dogs from county dog shelters to their foster homes, helping them on the next step of their journey to finding forever families🐾🏡
Yesterday, David gave this gorgeous Whippet a lift to one of our amazing foster families – stay tuned for more information about this little cutie-pie😍🐾

We received a lovely update and some beautiful photos from Natalie, who adopted Jerry, our handsome German Shepherd boy:
“Hi everyone at Clare Animal Welfare, I just wanted to send you a message and give you an update on our beautiful Jerry💙 He has settled into our life perfectly, and gets on great with our other dogs, Ted and Lola. Our kids adore him, in fact everyone that meets him adores him! He has been with us for 7 months now – he is the gentlest dog I have ever had🥰 We are so lucky that you chose us to be his forever home. Thank you! Best wishes, Natalie, Shane & family.”
We’re thrilled to see Jerry looking so happy in such a loving home🥰

UPDATE: The cat was brought to Ennis Vet Clinic beside Knox's Bridge
Lifford Road, Ennis RIP
Hi, a cat was knocked down on Lifford road last night. Found dead this morning by the traffic lights. It's an adult tan/white/black cat.
I have taken it off the road and it is in a cardboard box for now.

Oh heyy guyzzz, it’s me, Peggy👋😆 I’m the big chunky monkey who’s looking for my forever home, so PLEASE share me around and help me find my people🙏🐾
I’m about 3 or 4 years old (I dunno cuz nobody every wished me a happy birthday before😭😭), and apparently I’m a Staffy-cross... whatever that means! I’m a very happy, friendly, outgoing gal, who LOVES people, cuddles, attention, and playtime!! 🥰
I’m having great fun with my foster fam, and I’m already besties with my foster sister! We have a great time together, so I think I’d be happy out with a playful doggie brother or sister in my new home. But I can also TOTALLY be your only dog, as I’d love getting all the cuddles to myself!!😇
I’m very good with kids too, although I’m a big girl and sometimes I get a bit carried away with my joyful enthusiasm, so older kids over 12 would probably be best for me. Cats are definitely not my thing though, so no kitties please! 🙈
I’m actually a pretty clever girl and I’m learning lots. I’m nearly there with my house training and I’m working on my lead manners too. I am a strong girl though, so I’ll need someone strong to walk me while I’m still learning. And I’ll need a secure garden too, because I do have a few ideas of my own about where I’d like to go exploring!😆🏡
I can be left for a few hours, but I much prefer having my people around, so a home where someone is around a lot would be lovely for me. I can be a little nervous sometimes, but mostly I’m just a big, silly, affectionate girl who wants to have fun and get lots of cuddles🥰💕
So... are you my forever person? Or do you know someone who needs a big daft Peggy in their life? If you live in Ireland and think I might be the girl for you, please fill out the form below, and one of the CAW volunteers will be in touch if we could be a match!
