Dogs needing a home

Rocky Spaniel

Gender/Age: Male, 3 ½ years
Breed: Spaniel
Colour: Black and white
Location: New Romney

Rocky is a high energy dog who is looking for a family who can match his energy and play endless amounts of fetch. He has previously lived with other dogs before and can live with older kids (12+). Rocky is fairly new to us and so he can be a bit nervous at first but once he knows you, he's a typical crazy spaniel. If you feel you can offer him a nice home then feel free to pop into our New Romney branch between 11am to 3pm Weds-Sun.

Tilly and Teabag

Gender/Age: Male & Female 11yrs & 12 yrs
Breed: Yorkie & Pug
Location: Edenbridge

Tilly and Teabag, the beloved duo! Sadly, their owner passed away, leaving them confused but hopeful for a new chapter. Both dogs thrive on attention and love a good fuss, making them ideal companions for a cosy retirement home. They’re good with other dogs and cats!

Simon

Gender/Age: Male 4 years
Breed: Pointer x Cocker Spaniel
Colour: Black & white
Location: New Romney

Simon is an excitable and lovely boy who can't wait to find a new home. He is looking for an active, experienced home, with no other pets or young children, where he will learn lots of new things. Due to some previous bad interactions with other dogs, he will bark at others when on walks, he will be needing further socialising and training to help with this, but a nice quiet walking location would be ideal so he can have stress free walks while training. Typical to his breeds, he has a lot of energy so is looking for a home keen to get out and explore on long walks. He isn't keen on being disturbed while he sleeps or having his feet touched, due to this he would like a home with no young children who may not understand this. He is incredibly smart and loves to play and will make someone a fantastic companion. If you think you could offer Simon the home he needs, please contact us for more information.

Big Bear

Gender/Age: Male 1 year
Breed: Boxer x
Colour: Black & white
Location: Edenbridge

Big Bear sadly came to us as a stray from the pound so no history is known prior to coming to last chance. He is a big strong boy who loves his walks and all the new smells. He is ok with female dogs but would greatly benefit from lots of gentle socialising with other dogs. He is a happy boy and loves his food and treats. He is starting to respond well to training with treats so would need an owner to continue this. As he is a big bouncy boy we recommend an adult only home with a strong owner.

Oreo

Gender/Age: Male 1 year
Breed: Border Collie
Colour: Black & white
Location: New Romney

Oreo has come to Last Chance by no fault of his own. He is a very sweet bouncy pup that has a had a rough start in life. Oreo will need a very active home with someone that will go on plenty of walks and keep his mind stimulated. He is okay with other dogs and older dog savvy children. No cats. If you feel you can offer Oreo a new home then please pop into our New Romney branch between 11am to 3pm, Weds to Sun.

Charlie and Lola

Gender/Age: Female and male 10 years
Breed: Jack Russell Terrier
Colour: White
Location: New Romney

Siblings Charlie and Lola have recently come back to us for rehoming as they did not get on with the cat. They are an incredibly sweet pair who are looking to go home together as they are bonded. Charlie and Lola love to go on walks and have a good sniff around. If you feel like you can give this sweet pair a home then come and visit them at out New Romney Centre Wed-Sun 11am-3pm. Hope to see you soon.

Reggie

Gender/Age: Male 2yrs
Breed: Old English Bulldog
Colour: Whaite & Tan
Location: Edenbridge

Reggie is incredibly friendly and affectionate. He’s never been aggressive to people or dogs, but he can be a bit too loving at times. Reggie adores people and loves to get as close as possible to them. As his eyesight and hearing are impaired touch and smell are his main senses, so he needs to be approached slowly to avoid getting scared. If you’re sitting down, Reggie will happily climb onto your lap. If he gets a chance, he’ll even climb up onto the back of your neck. Reggie loves cuddles and playtime, especially fetch with a ball. Reggie doesn’t like being alone for too long. He’s good at night, but he’ll occasionally bark and need reassurance if he sees a shadow he doesn’t like. He’s scared of the dark. Reggie also doesn’t like the rain! Sometimes, Reggie can get a bit carried away with playtime and nips. But it’s all playful behaviour, and he just needs to be calmed down. Reggie will make a great companion for someone who has the time for him. He can be strong on the lead, but once he gets going, he’s such a good boy

Dave

Gender/Age: Male 6 years
Breed: Border terrier
Colour: Brown and black
Location: New Romney

Poor Dave hasn't had the best of luck, he was returned to us because he was getting too worked up by other dogs on walks and took a while to unwind afterwards. Dave is a lovely boy who loves a game of fetch and even brings the ball back (most of the time anyway). As Dave gets worked up by other dogs, we are looking for an experienced, adult only home, who live in a quiet area where there are not a lot of dogs around. Come and visit him at out New Romney Centre Wed-Sun 11am-3pm. Hope to see you soon.

Cobi

Gender/Age: male, 12 years
Breed: Jack Russell
Colour: tan and white
Location: Edenbridge

Cobi has had a troubled life. He originally came to us from the Welsh pound and was soon adopted by a couple who had him for three years. During this time, the man would force Cobi to do things that he did not want to do. He would force Cobi to wear a too-small harness and go out in heavy rain and thunderstorms. Cobi is scared of loud bangs, so this would have absolutely terrified poor Cobi. Because of this, Cobi started lashing out and became fear aggressive towards the couple, which ended up with him being returned for 'bad behaviour.' Cobi has had two homes since, and due to his original owner's behaviour, understandably, he now prefers a female owner. He will become attached to one person and will lash out at anyone else, so he is also better suited to a one-person home. Cobi loves to play fetch with tennis balls and will play for hours. He is very clever and is good at working out enrichment toys; he specifically loves liver treats and cut-up dog sausages put in a snuffle mat, where he can spend ages working out how to get every crumb out. He can be very affectionate on his own terms, but he will warn you when he has had enough. Due to having developed behavioural issues, Cobi has a bite history, so he will need an experienced and understanding owner. Cobi can be fearful of loud noises, specifically thunderstorms and fireworks. He will become very stressed, pant, and try to hide behind his bed and under blankets. He is best left with a loud radio to drown out the noise and to be left alone, as he becomes fearful and lashes out, probably remembering being forced to go out in them in his first home. Cobi, in the right home, would make a very loyal, loving pet. Please ask staff for more information about Cobi.

Heidi

Gender/Age: Female 4yrs
Breed: German Shepherd
Colour: Black & tan
Location: New Romney

Poor Heidi has recently come back to us because she became overly protective of her new owner. She is a lovely dog who will need time to adjust to her new surroundings so during this time we advise on having limited visitors. Due to her territorial behaviour we are looking for an adult only home where she can be the only pet.

Buster

Gender/Age: Male 7yrs
Breed: Bulldog
Colour: Tan and white
Location: Edenbridge

Buster is a typically stubborn bulldog. He loves nothing more his big comfy bed, getting under the covers and lots of treats. He can be reluctant to walk in an any adverse weather but likes a stroll at his own pace wherever he wants to go. Buster is a nosey dog and loves coming through our office to sniff new smells and helping to feed the office fish. He will often steal staffs leads and carry his bowl to his bed where Buster can become protective over this and any long-lasting treats. He loves a butt scratch and will roll in long grass for you to scratch his tummy and can be quite affectionate on his own terms. Buster is not short on character but will need an experienced owner. He must go to a male one to one home as Buster loves men. He does not like people coming in to his home so will need to be kept separate. Buster needs a very understanding owner who will respect his boundaries and give him the time and space he needs. Please contact Edenbridge for more information.

Mary

Gender/Age: Female 4yrs
Breed: Pocket Bully
Colour: Fawn
Location: Edenbridge

Mary is a lovely girl who needs an understanding owner. If she loves you, she adores you, and you become her world. She lives with one of the staff members a few times a week, and she loves nothing more than having a cuddle on the sofa and snuggling up in bed during the night. Mary is also obsessed with her food and will give a little song to try and get what she wants. However, while Mary loves you, this means she gets very protective of her people and can become aggressive when strangers approach. So for this, she needs a patient and understanding owner. She now knows 'sit' and 'paw'; however, she gets overexcited for the treat, so she jumps up to give you both paws instead. She can be a tiny bulldozer and charges about when she is having her zoomies. Mary would make a fantastic companion to the right owner and would make you laugh on a daily basis. We do not think that Mary has had any training or socializing, so this does mean she needs to be muzzled and mixed with other dogs slowly. Adult Home only! Dogs – No Cats – No

Ralphie

Gender/Age: Male 4 yrs
Breed: Lurcher
Colour: Brindle
Location: Edenbridge

Ralphie originally came into us after Covid as his owners thought they were getting a labrador puppy. He was being kept in a flat without a garden and had had no socialising with people. Ralphie is brilliant with other dogs and has had many friends here over the years, so he would love to have a friend in the home or a regular walking companion. When Ralphie first came into us he would get very frustrated and he would show this in mouthing and occasionally snapping, he has mostly grown out of this but needs a very kind owner to understand his behaviour and help with his training with this. Ralphie loves to run around with other dogs but also loves to chase a tennis ball so would need a secure garden where he could play freely. Ralphie does love a gentle fuss, especially a butt scratch, however he does have boundaries and will let you know when he has had enough. Ralphie loves his bed and often sleeps with all 4 legs in the air, so would love a big comfy bed in the sun to lounge in. Ralphie is muzzled trained and is also housetrained here in the kennels. Ralphie needs an experienced adult only home with no cats or small furries.

Roo

Gender/Age: Female 18months
Breed: German Shepherd
Colour: Black & tan
Location: New Romney

Roo is an excitable young girl who has obviously been loved at some point. She is incredibly smart and knows several tricks such as sit, down and paw. She is full of life and loves nothing better than chasing a ball and playing in water. She can get a little over excited and mouthy at times, but can be distracted with a ball, she will need lots of exercise and training to help with this. She is not keen on other dogs and will bark at those she sees on walks; she will need confidence building and socialising to help with this. Her ideal home would be an active, adult only home with no other pets and lots of tennis balls.

Penelope

Gender/Age: Female 2yr
Breed: English Bull Terrier
Colour: Tri Colour
Location: Edenbridge

Penelope sadly came to Last Chance as an unclaimed stray. Smelly and covered in fleas Penelope had obviously come from an unloved place. We believed whoever had her before coming to Last Chance had tried to use her as a guard dog/ status dog due to her breed however upon spending time with Penelope it’s clear to see she would of been useless at this as she is a happy friendly girl who loves everyone she meets which could of resulting in her being thrown out like rubbish. Penelope has had little to no socialisation and training. She has absolutely no manners and thinks the words no, wait, stay mean yes let’s go play! Penelope loves being around people and will get frustrated when she knows you are about to leave her however a few games of fetch has her calmed down. Penelope absolutely loves toys and loves finding new ones to take back to her with her. Sadly due to having no socialising Penelope is not good with other dogs we are hopeful that in time with the correct training she would eventually play well with dogs as we think she would enjoy this however we can not say for certain as we don’t know what happened during her puppy years. Penelope would love an active adult only home with no children, dogs or cats. As she has so much energy to burn and would need someone who can put in the time for her.

Simon

Gender/Age: Male 6yrs
Breed: Sharpei
Colour: Tan
Location: Edenbridge

Don’t let Simon’s grumpy face fool you he is a very happy boy who loves nothing more than investigating smells on his walks by smooshing his chops into everything. He is housetrained and loves a big comfy bed to lounge in the sun in or a bed by the window so he can be nosy all day. He can be vocal with some dogs so would benefit from gentle socialising in time and would need to be the only pet in the home. He is not good with cats or any other small animals. He will randomly play with toys and will chase a football a few times before getting distracted by a smell that he has to wee on. Simon does have some of the Sharpei quirks and can be an independent dog at times, wanting affection on his own terms, so would need an owner to understand the characteristics of his breed. Adult only home.

Olivia

Gender/Age: Female, 2yrs
Breed: Frenchie
Colour: Seal & Tan
Location: New Romney

It's been over a year since miss Olivia came into us from the Welsh pound. We had no history on her and so we've had to figure out her personality as we went. Olivia truly is a lovely girl and wants nothing more than having a good bum scratch and chasing leaves in the wind. Unfortunately, she has some behavioural problems which has made her difficult to rehome. Olivia will fixate on toys and food (and sometimes even her own sick) and she will guard. When she is in this mindset she cannot be reasoned with and no matter how much she loves you, in that moment nothing is more important than the object she is guarding. Due to this behaviour we are only looking for an EXPERIENCED ADULT ONLY home where she can be the only pet within the property. She cannot live with children.

Archie and Ruby

Gender/Age: Male (7 years) and Female (5 years)
Breed: Boxer
Colour: Red
Location: New Romney

Archie and Ruby have been handed over to Last Chance due to their owner sadly passing away. Archie and Ruby are a lovely pair that are full of beans and lots of love to give. Ruby likes to have a nibble of clothing when she gets excited and may accidently catch fingers. This pair will need an active home with no other pets or children. If you are interested in offering Archie and Ruby their forever home, please contact the centre or visit during opening hours.

Kimi

Gender/Age: Female 8yrs
Breed: Rottweiler
Colour: Black & tan
Location: Edenbridge

Kimi sadly came to us severely overweight and was nicknamed the barrel. She was struggling to walk and after further investigation it was discovered, she unfortunately has luxating patella in both her knees. Due to Kimi being energetic she jumps around in her kennel, bouncing off the walls, making the recovery post-surgery not possible, so she is kept comfortable with medication and is doing well on it. Since finding her love for walks and balls she has managed to shed the weight but is still in need of shedding those last few kilos. Kimi is absolutely obsessed with her toys and mainly balls. You will always find her with a ball in her mouth, whether she is out on a walk or laying in her bed she will have a toy. She treats it as a comfort blanket and wherever she goes, a toy will go with her. Kimi is great with the people she knows however it can take time to build up trust with her. Kimi does enjoy a fuss and some attention but only on her terms and only for a short period. Kimi is happiest being near and with you rather than on you like a lap dog. Kimi likes her own space, but likes to know you are around, so would prefer to sit in her bed surrounded by her toys with you in her eyesight so she knows she is not alone. One of Kimi’s rare features which we all love, if she allows you to sneak a glance is her ‘pig skin pads on her paws. Kimi is looking for an experienced adult only home with no other pets. Kimi needs an owner who will give her the time and patience she will need to earn your trust and to settle in to a home environment.

Milligan

Gender/Age: Male 3yrs
Breed: Greyhound
Colour: Black
Location: Edenbridge

Milligan is an ex-racing greyhound and is looking for a retirement home. We are not sure what has happened to him previously but he is very nervous around new people especially men. He can shut down when meeting new people so if often overlooked. Once he knows and trusts you he is the happiest boy always wagging his tail and wanting affection, he loves a big fuss now he knows what it is. Milligan is easily startled and loud noises are still scary to him but he is getting better day by day. He like many greyhounds has found his love in toys and will always manage to find a squeaky toy whilst on our runs and take it back to his kennel as a trophy. Milligan needs a patient and quiet home with someone in most of the time to show him that life isn't all scary, so we think he is better suited to a home with older gentle children or no children at all. He loves his walks and being outside enjoying all the new smells. No cats or small dogs.

Marley

Gender/Age: Male 1 years
Breed: Greyhound
Colour: Black
Location: New Romney

Lovable Marley is still looking for his forever home! Poor boy came to us from the Welsh pound with no history so he cannot live with children. Marley unfortunately came in to us in a bit of a state. He was severely underweight and his ears were shredded. After months of lots of treats and wearing the cone of shame, he's looking so much better and is enjoying his freedom. Marley absolutely loves everyone and has a habit of jumping up to say hi, he has also been introduced on lead to many different dogs and has made best friends with every single one. Marley could live with another dog but would not be a good fit for a home with cats.

Barker

Gender/Age: Male, 5yrs
Breed: Greyhound
Colour: Black
Location: New Romney

Barker is another one of our lovely ex racers we have here at New Romney. Barker is a really happy boy who loves long walks and having lots of cuddles. He can get so excited that he just can't control himself and will do lots of zoomies. At his core Barker is a sweet, loving dog who just wants a nice sofa to cuddle up on with his new forever people. If you're interested in coming to meet Barker then please speak to the staff at New Romney Tel: 01797 366620, or pop in to the centre during our opening times: Wed-Sun 11am-3pm.

Mitch

Gender/Age: Male 2-3yrs
Breed: Pocket bully
Colour: Tri Colour
Location: Edenbridge

Mitch came to us from the Welsh pound due to a decline in his owners health. Mitch was a very timid boy at first and would grumble whilst running away from you in his kennel due to fear. He has now come out of his shell and he has found his love in toys. His favourite at the minute are balls! He will play all day, not that the toys last that long. Mitch has been fearful of other dogs whilst being with us so will need very slow socialising with other dogs and to be the only pet in the home for now. As Mitch can be fearful of the world we are suggesting an adult only home to help him navigate a new home life, with patient and understanding owners who can give him space and time to settle without pushing his boundaries. Mitch loves his walks but can be stubborn at times wanting to get back so he can continue playing.

Rocco

Gender/Age: Male 17 Months
Breed: Parson Terrier
Colour: Black & white
Location: Edenbridge

Rocco originally came into us as he was due to be put to sleep as his owners couldn't give him what he needs. When Rocco first came in he was extremely nervous and wouldn't move from his bed, everything was scary and he couldn't understand where he was, for a few weeks Rocco would shy away from people and only go to a walk when he really needed a toilet. After a while Rocco grew to like a couple of members of staff who spent lots of time with him to bring him out of his shell and he learned to trust again. Today Rocco is a different dog, he is a very happy chap who loves everyone at the centre and loves going for walks and could be out for hours. Rocco has a high prey drive so can not be rehomed with cats or small furries. Rocco loves to play with tennis balls and has recently discovered footballs, where he will try for ages to pick it up in his mouth, barking at it in frustration. Rocco has not been socialised with other dogs and can be vocal, so he must have slow gentle socialising when he is settled in the home and to be the only pet for now. Rocco can become overwhelmed easily and gets frustrated so needs an understanding owner.

Rolo

Gender/Age: Male 4yrs
Breed: Terrier
Colour: Black & tan
Location: Edenbridge

Rolo is a very busy boy. He loves to chase anything that moves and will do this all day. He loves his walks and stops to smell everything. He loves to get snug in his bed and he buries himself under his covers when he sleeps. Rolo is very affectionate and tries to jump on your lap for a cuddle. He loves his toys and will find his favourite and run about with it in his mouth. He is a very active boy so needs lots of exercise.

Rolo has a very high prey drive and try to chase everything. He can get himself very worked up over this and needs a very understanding owner to help him calm down. Rolo is also very reactive to other dogs and can redirect so will need an experienced owner. We think that Rolo would love lots of secure land where he can safely explore and with a very patient and understanding owner who can appreciate Rolo’s needs and give him all the love he deserves. He must be the only pet in an adult only home.

Milo

Gender/Age: Male 3 years
Breed: GSD x Husky
Colour: Black and Tan
Location: New Romney

Milo has been back with us for a few months now and has hardly any interest! He's such a lovely boy who is so cuddly and playful and would make a lovely dog for the right people. Milo may look like a German Shepherd but the Husky part of him comes out on walks where he can be stubborn at times and only wants to walk the way he wants. Milo is a very vocal boy at times and can get especially vocal when he sees other dogs, which we previously mistook for dog aggression; as it turns out Milo just gets so excited at the idea of making a new friend! He's been on many on lead walks with multiple dogs and he's loved every single one! While we would consider Milo living with another dog, he cannot live with cats as he has a high prey drive and loves to chase them.

Dancer

Gender/Age: Male 8yrs
Breed: Collie x
Colour: Black and Tan
Location: Edenbridge

We rescued Dancer from the Welsh pound. From his breed and behavior, we believe he was originally a farm dog. When Dancer knows you, he is very affectionate and loves jumping up for cuddles. Dancer loves going out for walks and exploring new places. When he is on the lead, he does get protective and will nip if anyone approaches him. He needs an adult-only home in a rural setting, where he is the only pet in the home. He needs a rural home due to not liking ongoing traffic, so a quieter setting is very much needed.

Agassi

Gender/Age: Male 4yrs
Breed: Greyhound
Colour: Black
Location: Edenbridge

Agassi is an ex-racing greyhound and may never have lived in a home environment. He is starting to enjoy retirement and has recently realised how much fun squeaky/cuddly toys are and loves to chuck them around his kennel to himself and carry them off to his bed to chew on. Agassi is a funny boy when it comes to food and unlike most greyhounds he is very particular about what he eats, he will lick the meat off and spit out the biscuits he doesn't like the taste of. Now he realises what attention is, he is loving a fuss and will walk into you with his head and wait for a stroke. Agassi is good around other dogs his size but no small animals or fluff dogs due to his prey drive. Agassi is looking for a loving retirement home with someone who can give him the time and love he deserves.

Rocky

Gender/Age: Male 3yrs
Breed: Greyhound
Colour: Black
Location: New Romney

Rocky is another one of our sweet ex-racers who are looking for their forever home. Rocky is super chilled and loves having a cuddle but he loves nothing more than playing fetch (and will sometimes even bring the ball back!). While in a foster home, Rocky was found to get possessive of his toys around other dogs, so we think that he would be better suited in a home where he is the only pet. As an ex-racer, Rocky cannot live with cats or small animals. If you feel like you could be Rocky's forever person then please pop into our New Romney branch to visit him, he can't wait to meet you!

Lexi

Gender/Age: Female 7yrs
Breed: Greyhound
Location: New Romney

Lexi is a very sweet, gentle girl who loves a fuss. Sadly, Lexi is epileptic so is on ongoing medication. She would love a nice calm home where she get lots of love and attention. She is Okay with other dogs, but as with most sight Hounds, no cats or small animals.

Danny Boy

Gender/Age: Male 10years
Breed: Scottie/Carne X
Colour: Black
Location: Edenbridge

Danny Boy is a lovely boy once he knows you, he has to have a female owner on a one to one basis, this is all due to him being mistreated. Unfortunately this poor sad little lad, through no fault of his own was kicked and abused in his previous home, living day after day in constant fear, hiding and cowling away from his owner.

This is a very sad case due Danny Boy’s previous male owner who was sadly suffering with-Alzheimers and didn’t realise what he was inflicting on his once best friend.

Please therefore understand why our darling sad, confused, untrustworthy, frightened little Danny boy can be unpredictable towards men, and is quite nervous when first meeting you and needs to settle in slowly. Is there someone out there that can reassure him, give back the love he once knew, to enable him to trust that once again, like the song above will there ever be any pipes a calling for our Danny Boy?????? Or does he have to continue to hope, dream, wish for someone to call his name.

Look into those eyes, see his pain, reach out to him, give him a chance, give him time to trust you, give him back his life, give him the confidence, patience and love that he needs, LOVE that we all need. I know the right person is out there, make our Danny Boy’s wish come true, a loving home this Christmas, that day and every other one there on, FIND HIM A HOME PLEASE.

MORE INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT OUR BOY For those of you that feel you can give our little lad the right home, you would have to visit him on a regular basis, over weeks, even maybe months for him to get used to you and to start to trust you, so this is something that must be considered.

Danny is ideally looking for a quiet home, with a female that does not have regular visitors, with NO CHILDREN, MEN OR OTHER PETS. Danny needs to be his on boss, not be confronted by things or over stimulated or trying to teach him. Danny I would say at the moment, but who knows in the future, is currently not a companion pet, and would not understand or want loads of cuddles or fuss. Like I say he might be the most adorable companion, but this would take time.

Consideration must be taken when out with Danny, due to his fear of people, especially men, you would need to keep a distance from people and dogs whilst walking our Danny boy.

For more information on Danny please call our staff at the Edenbridge rescue 01732 865530
