Poor Yoyo has been with us longer than anyone – a whole 18 months💔 He needs a little more understanding than other dogs, but he deserves a loving home just as much as anyone. If enough people share, we’re sure to find his special person! 🙏🙏
This cute little 7-year-old Jack Russell Terrier was brought to the vets to be put to sleep last year because he had nipped someone’s heel😔 Seeing that he had the potential to become a fabulous little dog, the vets reached out to us to ask if we could help him. Since then, our amazing fosterer and trainers have been working with Yoyo, and what a sweet little fella he’s turned out to be! Once he gets to know you, he’s an absolute sweetheart who adores his cuddles🥰💞
He still has his quirks, and will certainly need a special type of home. He’s a sensitive little lad who can get overwhelmed by busyness, so he needs a peaceful, pet-free, rural home where he won’t encounter too many other dogs or people on his walks.
Although Yoyo has made remarkable progress since coming into our care, he still needs a child-free home, with no visiting children, to be on the safe side. He can be uncomfortable around people he doesn’t know, so he’ll likely need to spend some time in a separate room when visitors come to the house.
We know Yoyo isn’t perfect, and we’re not going to pretend otherwise. But he has so much love and fun to give, and he deserves the chance to experience all the lovely things that come with having a home of his own. Our trainers will also be on hand to support his adopter and help him settle in. If you live in Ireland and would love to give Yoyo the happy home he’s been waiting so long for, please fill out the form below🙏🐾

Lovely news🥰💕 This sweet little pocket bully came into our care a few weeks ago, and before we even had a chance to post her here, we found her a lovely forever home!
Luna is now living her best life with her doting mammy, right here in County Clare. She’s been off on plenty of adventures and, of course, finding the biggest sticks she can possibly carry!🌳😍
Poor Luna had been abandoned by her previous owner who left the country, so we’re absolutely thrilled to see her happy, healthy and very much cherished in her new home🥰 Huge thanks to her foster mam and her wonderful adoptive family💕🏡
This is a 1st for CAW! A lovely little Bedlington Terrier. 💞🫶 This sweet tempered girl is four years old and she is looking for a new family. Nunez is a fairly shy, quiet dog who gets on well with other dogs and has lived with children before. She hasn't lived with cats.
Nunez is a non shed dog so she will need regular grooming to keep her looking her best. She is good in the car and is house trained. She can be a bit of a roamer so we are looking for a house with an enclosed garden.
If you are interested in adopting this unusual and lovely girl please fill out the attached form

Say HELLO to our newest boy, Teddy👋😍! This adorable little chap is looking for a nice quiet home – please help us get the word out🙏
Teddy is 6 years old and he’s a Shih Tzu crossed with a Pomeranian (Shiranian, Shih-Pom or Pom-Tzu😂??). The poor fella was surrendered to us as his household was very busy, and he was getting stressed with all the hustle and bustle.
He’s an extremely affectionate boy who loves being close to his humans. His foster mammy says he’s a bit of a velcro dog, and you’ll often find him snuggled up between his fosterers’ feet at bedtime!😴
Teddy really enjoys his long forest walks and is a great little companion out and about. He’s good with larger dogs, although he can be rude with smaller ones. He’s fine with his fosterer’s cat, though she’s very dog-savvy, so we’re not sure how he’ll be with most cats.
As a sensitive soul, Teddy can be nervous when meeting new people, and he’ll need a little time and patience in his forever home. He’s also quite a vocal little fellow, and has plenty to say for himself! He barks when he’s excited, nervous, or looking for attention, so a home where this won’t cause a problem would be important. He also needs a peaceful home without young children, where he can feel safe and secure😇🏡
This quirky little character has lots of love to give, and we’re hoping there’s someone out there who will see what a lovely little companion he could be. If you live anywhere in Ireland and can offer Teddy an understanding, loving home, please fill out the form here:
