HOW YOU CAN HELP
Fosterers assess dogs for us, help them after surgery (spaying and neutering usually) and socialize and train the dogs.
This is usually temporary and can last for a few days to months. Fosterers can adopt, although keeping a healthy number of fosterers is imperative for us.
Adoption is similar to fostering as regards caring for the animal. However, adoption is a permanent arrangement.
We are a non-profit, charity organisation registered in Ireland. Please support us by contributing. Your contributions help to ensure we continue to re-home unwanted, neglected, abused and abandoned dogs.
Please donate here.
We help members of the public paying vet bills as we want to encourage spaying and neutering for those who cannot afford it. Please fill out your application here.

Say hello to our newest dreamboat, Mack👋😍 This lovely lad is on the lookout for his forever home – please spread the word for him! 🙏💕This sweet-natured Lurcher was found on his own last week outside a Supermac’s, where he was politely asking customers if they could spare him some of their takeaway🥺💔 The poor fella was very skinny, and it was clear that he hadn’t been looked after properly before being left to fend for himself... The dog warden was called to help him, and because of where he was found, decided to call him Mack🐶Despite everything he’s been through, Mack is the sweetest, friendliest, most affectionate boy🥰 His foster dad says he’s “SUPER cuddly” and “the BEST dog EVER”, and he’s not wrong! We think Mack is about 3 years old, which is a fantastic age – still a young lad, but well beyond the adolescent phase of his life😇Mack loves playing with the dogs in his foster home, so we’d love to find him a home with another dog for company🐾 He’s super people-focused too, so he would likely be happy as your one-and-only, as long as he has human company for most of the day and plenty of daily fun and attention🥰Like most Lurchers, Mack is gentle and sweet with kids. He hasn’t met any cats yet, though, so for now we’re looking for a cat-free home.This beautiful boy is absolutely full of affection, and we can’t wait to see him totally cherished in a loving home of his very own. If you’d love to be the one to give Mack the loving home he so deserves, please fill out our adoption form below:service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=caw&method=online_form_html&formid=41We’re considering loving homes anywhere in Ireland 🏡💕

Morris is one of the sweetest boys we’ve ever had the pleasure of minding, and we can’t wait to find him a loving home of his own. Please give this gorgeous lad a share to help him find his special person! 🙏🏡💕This utterly adorable, gentle and affectionate boy came into our care last week. The poor lad had been found straying – skinny, neglected and suffering from mange – but he’s now getting all the love, care and good food he missed out on for so long💔Morris is only about 1 year old, and is a beautiful fawn Lurcher with the most handsome face. He’s incredibly people-focused, and gentle cuddles are his favourite thing in the whole wide world! Like most Lurchers, he adores his home comforts and will be more than happy to keep you company around the house as you go about your day🥰Of course, being a young fella, Morris does love a good zoomies session🤩🐾 So we’d love to find him a home with a nice-sized garden where he can stretch his legs and have a good run. He’s very playful and gets along fantastically with all the dogs in his foster home, so ideally we’d love for him to have a canine companion or two🐶💕His gentle, calm and playful nature makes him really great with kids. We haven’t tested him with cats yet, but we’d be happy to arrange a cat test for the right applicant. Morris is house-trained, a joy to walk on the lead, a fantastic passenger in the car, and his recall is already excellent too. He really is a dream dog😇Despite the neglect he has suffered, Morris is such a friendly, happy and easy-going boy. All he wants is to love and be loved💕 If you live anywhere in Ireland and would love to have this amazing boy in your life, please fill out our adoption form below:service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=caw&method=online_form_html&formid=41
This gentle couch potato is sadly being kicked out of the only home she’s ever known, just because of her breed😔💔 We’re determined to find Bailey a loving home where she’ll never have to experience such upheaval again. Please give Bailey a share to help us🙏🙏This cuddly, affectionate, 4-year-old Pitbull terrier will soon be coming into our care. Bailey is living in social housing, where Pitbulls aren’t allowed, and the county council have recently found out about her. Now her owner has been given just a few weeks’ notice to rehome her, meaning that Bailey is about to lose the only family she’s ever known💔While it’s a heartbreaking situation, Bailey is such an easy-going girl that we know she’ll settle into a new home in no time. She’s pretty lazy, and as long as she has a comfy couch and someone to love and cuddle her, she’ll be happy out🥰🛋️Bailey has been living with other dogs and she’s fantastic with them, so she can happily live with other dogs. But because she’s a low-energy girl, she probably wouldn’t appreciate living with very hyper dogs who might annoy her! She hasn’t lived with cats before, so we’re looking for a cat-free home. And because Bailey enjoys a peaceful life, we’re hoping for a home with no young children under 12.Bailey is fully house-trained, travels well in the car, is very polite on the lead, and is easy-going around other dogs she meets on her daily walks🐾😊If you live in Ireland and would love to offer this affectionate, cuddly couch potato the second chance she so desperately needs right now, please fill out the adoption form below:service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=caw&method=online_form_html&formid=41
UPDATE: Applications closed! Whoah, Basil has been a popular boy! Sorry that we won't be able to get in touch with everyone who has applied to adopt him....Beautiful Basil is looking for a loving home of his own – can you give this uber-handsome boy a share to help him? 🥰🐾Basil is a Wire Fox Terrier who’s about a year-and-a-half old, and one of those dogs who just LOVES being with his people. He’s incredibly affectionate, very cuddly and has the softest fur – so naturally, cuddles are a HUGE part of his daily routine😍He’s also a playful, fun-loving boy and has been fantastic with the children in his foster home. He’s housetrained, walks well on the lead and he sleeps right through the night without a peep😇Basil needs a cat-free home as he does like to chase the cats in his foster home. He gets on well with dogs his own size or bigger, but smaller dogs aren’t impressed with his enthusiasm😂 He can be a bit much for them, so we’re looking for a home with another dog or dogs his own size or larger. He’d also be perfectly happy being your one-and-only, getting ALL the cuddles and attention to himself🥰Basil does love his human company and doesn’t enjoy being left alone for too long, so his ideal home would be one where he won’t have to spend long stretches without his people. If you live in Ireland and would love to offer Basil the happy home he deserves, please fill out our adoption form here:service.sheltermanager.com/asmservice?account=caw&method=online_form_html&formid=41
