⚠️ UPSETTING CONTENT ⚠️
Gloria was rescued from a group of so-called "youths" (and believe me, we have plenty of other names for them!) in Shannon just 10 days ago by a member of the public.
At the time, this innocent little girl was being subjected to horrific cruelty and torture, with those responsible threatening to kill her. 🤬
This beautiful little Whippet, just one year old, spent three days and three nights in the veterinary hospital, fighting to save both her paws. The damage was so severe that there was a very real risk she could lose them both.
Thankfully, thanks to the incredible care she received, both paws have been saved, and Gloria is now on the road to recovery.
She is currently safe in a loving foster home, where she is being cared for and given the kindness, comfort and love she so desperately deserves. She is doing as well as can be expected under the circumstances. ❤️
The sheer, wanton cruelty and complete lack of empathy shown towards this defenceless little dog is absolutely sickening. How anyone could inflict such suffering on an innocent animal is beyond comprehension.
Gloria deserved nothing but love and kindness. Thankfully, someone stepped in and gave her a chance.
No animal should ever have to endure this💔

Gloria will be looking for a loving home when she is fully healed🙏

Rua’s foster dad has been getting to know this lovely lad over the past few days, and we’re delighted to hear how well he’s settling in🥰 Please give Rua a share to help us find the loving home he deserves🙏

This handsome 7-year-old Staffy is a big softie who absolutely LOVES his cuddles and a good game of fetch. He’s happy out relaxing in the house, is house-trained, and has been a very good boy in foster care so far💕

There’s just one little thing his foster dad would like you to know… Rua is a strong lad, and when he gets a bit excited indoors, anything in the path of his wagging tail is fair game😂 So it might be wise to keep any nice ceramics off the coffee table!

Rua was with his previous family from puppyhood, but with three very young children to look after, they were struggling to give him the walks and attention he needs. He’s a loving, people-oriented boy who has lots of affection to give to his forever family.

Rua is good with female dogs, but can get a little excited around male dogs he meets out and about. He needs a cat-free home with someone experienced with Staffies or other bully breeds, who can give him the time, exercise and love he deserves🐾

If you live anywhere in Ireland and can offer Rua the forever home he deserves, please fill out the form below:

Meet Lancelot – our knight in shining armour⚔️😍 As you can see, he’s an absolute dreamboat. Please give this gorgeous lad a share to help us find his happily-ever-after!🙏🏡

This uber-handsome 18-month-old greyhound came into our care last week, and we’re all head-over-heels in love with this gentle soul🥰 Lancelot was training for racing, but could never run fast enough. We’re so happy he was surrendered to us, as many greyhounds who can’t make the time end up being put to sleep💔💔

He’s been loving life in foster care, and his foster parents have nothing but good things to say about him! Lancelot is a total gentleman who’s very people-focused and eager to please. He adores being near his people, leaning in for gentle rubs and snuggling up on the couch. Like many gorgeous greys, he spends much of his day lounging about and snoozing!😇💤

Lancelot is excellent with other dogs – he’s a pure gent with them and very respectful. His calm, gentle nature makes him great with kids too. The only guys Lancelot isn’t keen on are cats, so he’ll need a cat-free home.

If you live anywhere in Ireland and would love to have this calm, affectionate, loyal dreamboat in your life, please fill out the form below. Let’s find our handsome knight his forever castle! 🏰🥰

We’d like to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who helped us with Skye’s fostering appeal🙏💕 She’s now settled into a lovely new foster home, and all we need to do now is find her forever family. Could you please give her another share today to help make that happen?🏡🥰

We also home-checked two other lovely applicants who responded to her appeal, and we’ve gained another two foster homes🤩 Having more fosterers means we can rescue more dogs who desperately need our help, so this is wonderful news all round!🐾

So, back to finding Skye’s forever home! She’s a lovely Saluki-lurcher, of about 3 years old, and she really is the gentlest soul. This poor girl came into our care terribly neglected, and she’s still a little shy around new people. But once she gets to know you, she’s the sweetest girl who gently leans in for rubs and loves being close to you. Her confidence is growing by the day, and we can’t wait to see her blossom!💕

Skye is great with other dogs, but she hasn’t met any cats since coming into our care. She loves the quiet life, so we’re looking for a peaceful home without young children under 10.

She’s a dream to walk on the lead, travels well in the car, and she’s making lovely progress with her toilet training, thanks to her fantastic foster mam! 🥰 If you can offer this beautiful girl the loving forever home she so deserves, please fill out the form below:

Amazing news🎉🎉 Our sweetie-pie Morris has found himself a wonderful forever home in gorgeous Galway🏡💕 Here he is with his doting mammy and his beautiful brother, Bo 😻

Poor Morris was found abandoned last month, terribly thin and covered in mange. We’re absolutely thrilled to now see him looking so happy, healthy, and totally adored! A huge thank you to Jane and Eddie for opening your hearts and home to this sweet-natured, gentle boy💕

We’d also like to say a big thanks to the kind people who rescued Morris when he was found all alone, to Morris’s fabulous foster parents, and to all our lovely followers who support us here and help our dogs get seen🙏🐾

And if you’d love to welcome an affectionate, gentle sighthound like Morris into your life, please take a look at Skye, Lancelot, Neo and Ringo on our website! Just like Morris, our lovely Ringo is good with cats too! 😻💕
