Dogs needing a home

Cubby

Gender/Age: Male 12yrs
Breed: Pomeranian
Colour: Fawn/orange

Cubby has come into our care through no fault of his own. He was shaved during COVID and sadly his fur has never fully grown back. As you can see by the photos a tail of two halves! Cubby is 12 years old and is due to see our vets for further assessment of some symptoms associated with old age. Cubby has a lovely nature and loves being with people. He is good with cats and, due to his age, we would like him to go to a home with no young children. He is looking for a quiet home where he can enjoy his golden years. Please contact our New Romney centre

Duchess

Gender/Age: Female 6 years
Breed: Frenchie
Colour: Grey and white
Location: Edenbridge

Duchess has come into us due to a change in her owners circumstances. She is a very friendly girl who loves everyone she meets and is always happy to make new friends. She is an energetic girl who enjoys her walks so would like an active owner. She is very affectionate and loves cuddles, especially on the sofa! Duchess has previously lived with children so could potentially do so again. She is good with dogs and could live with a neutered male. We have been told she is also good with cats. If you are interested in Duchess, then please don't hesitate to contact our Edenbridge centre.

Monty

Gender/Age: Male 2yrs
Breed: Boxer X
Colour: Red
Location: New Romney

Monty came to us from the pound, so unfortunately we have very little history on him. He arrived there with two other dogs, so we do know he is good with other dogs. Since being in our care, Monty has shown himself to be very friendly with a lovely nature. He has also previously lived with cats. Due to his limited history, we are unable to rehome him with children. If you think you could offer Monty the loving home he deserves, please get in touch with our new Romney centre

Melwood

Gender/Age: Male 10 years
Breed: Shih Tzu x Poodle
Colour: Black
Location: Edenbridge

Melwood has sadly been returned to us and is now starting his search for his forever home again. He will need to go to a 1-2-1 adult only home with minimal to no visitors and no visiting children. Melwood is a very happy boy who loves nothing more than playing with his toys and chasing a ball! He can be a little nervous of some people at first but doesn't take long to warm up to you. Melwood is looking for an active owner as despite his age he is still very energetic and enjoys his walks and sniffing all the plants. Whilst we haven't seen this behaviour with us in kennels we have been told that Melwood does resource guard in the home so an owner who has experience with this would be ideal. Melwood needs a patient and understanding owner who will give him the time and space he needs to settle into his new home. He loves his own space and would benefit from having a space of his own where he feels safe. Melwood truly is a lovely boy who has so much love to give, he can be an affectionate boy who enjoys a fuss at times though this must all be on his own terms. He would make a great companion to someone who has the time and patience to help him and understands when to give him his space. We have been told that Melwood is ok with some dogs when on his walks though he must be the only pet in a 1-2-1 adult only home. Please contact our Edenbridge centre for more information if you feel you can offer Melwood a loving forever home.

Midnight

Midnight is an older girl who has found herself looking for a new home due to no fault of her own. She is very affectionate and loves cuddles and giving kisses. Midnight is a very homely girl who enjoys spending her time cuddled up to her people on the sofa. She would love a home with a secure garden of her own so she can enjoy her days lounging around in the sun and plodding about safely. Midnight enjoys her walks which she walks very nicely on the lead for though she can be anxious around traffic. She would love a home where she won't be left on her own for long periods of time as she can become stressed when left alone. Midnight loves her soft teddys and is often found cuddling them in bed. She is a very gentle girl who is desperately looking for a loving retirement home with plenty of TLC so she can enjoy her golden years. Please don't hesitate to contact our Edenbridge centre if you are interested in this lovely older lady.

Ian

Gender/Age: Male 5yrs
Breed: Jack Russell Terrier x
Colour: Black & tan
Location: New Romney

Cheeky little Ian really lives up to his terrier nature; in the right home he is sure to make his new people laugh every day. He is an active boy, who loves exciting walks and chasing after a squeaky ball. He does have springs for back legs and can jump very high, so will need a nice secure garden to play in. He is always keen to meet new dogs, although we believe he would be best at the only dog in the home so he can be the centre of attention. Being a stray, we do not know what he has been through, but he can take a long time to trust, so will need an adult only home and someone dedicated to becoming his friend and coming to the centre to meet him several times. Once Ian gets to know someone he is the sweetest boy who just needs someone to come and give him a chance to find his forever home.

He loves to cuddle on the sofa whilst playing with his toys and despite his size he thinks he is a lapdog. He will take any chance he can get to sit on your lap and give you lots of kisses. Prince is an active boy who enjoys his long walks and generally walks nicely on the lead though he can pull at times. He can be reactive to some dogs whilst on his walks though we have been slowly introducing him to some of our other dogs at the centre and he has started to make some friends. He seems to enjoy a calm dog to walk alongside at a nice gentle pace. Prince is completely toy obsessed and will often be found wondering around his kennel with a toy in his mouth and will carry them around on his walks. He enjoys a game of fetch which he would play for hours if he could however he is also happy to take some toys off to his bed and play alone. He loves all kind of toys, especially soft squeaky ones and balls! When given a new toy Prince can get so excited he gets zoomies and because of this he would love a secure garden of his own to run around off lead in.

Prince would also benefit from further socialising with other dogs. Prince is a very loving, affectionate boy who is sadly rather misunderstood at times. He would make an amazing companion to the right person or couple and will never fail to put a smile on your face. He is a very loyal boy who is desperate to find his forever home.

Bruce

Gender/Age: Male 4 years
Breed: Staffie x Collie

Bruce was returned to our centre due to some behavioural issues. He struggles with separation anxiety, so he would need a home where he isn’t left alone for long and where there aren’t frequent visitors. Bruce is an active boy who will thrive in a home that can keep him mentally and physically stimulated with regular exercise and enrichment. Due to his ability to jump high, Bruce will require a secure garden with at least 6ft fencing. If you think you could offer him a home please contact New Romney Centre

Koby is a 9-month-old Malinois cross who came to us from a neglect situation, but despite his difficult start he has remained incredibly trusting and full of love. Once he builds a bond with you, Koby is affectionate, loyal, and eager to be by your side. He’s a playful boy with a bright mind and is quick to pick up new things, showing lots of potential with the right guidance. Koby gets on well with other dogs and has even previously lived with a cat. As a young, active dog he will benefit from continued training and structure, but in the right home—one that enjoys exercise, enrichment, and spending time together—Koby will grow into a wonderful and devoted companion.

Jack

Gender/Age: Male 4 years
Breed: Greyhound
Colour: Black & white
Location: Edenbridge

Jack is a big boy who has come into us after being retired from racing. Due to being an ex racer Jack has never lived in a home environment before so will need a patient owner who can show him what life is like to be a pet. He is looking for a home with a secure garden of his own where he can run around off lead in.

Jack enjoys a fuss and is slowly staring to take treats from staff and show some interest in his toys. He is an active boy who will need an active home. He can be strong on the lead at times so will need a strong owner.

Jack will need to be muzzled in public due to his high prey drive. He is ok with bigger dogs of his size but cannot be homed with cats, small furries or small fluffy dogs. Please come down to our Edenbridge centre if you are interested in Jack.

Sprout

Gender/Age: Male 1-2 years
Breed: Labrador cross
Colour: Black
Location: Edenbridge

Sprout is a big, chunky boy with a huge personality to match. He’s full of energy and fun, still very much a puppy at heart, and loves to run around and play football. Sprout would benefit from continued socialisation with other dogs. Once introduced and settled, he mixes well and enjoys doggy company. He’s a lovable lad who will thrive in a home where he gets plenty of exercise, stimulation, and attention. Sprout can be strong on the lead when he becomes overexcited, particularly if he spots something interesting, but with consistent training and guidance he has great potential.Sprout is looking for an active home committed to helping him channel his enthusiasm and continue his training. With the right support, he will make a loyal, fun-loving, and rewarding companion. He is good with some dogs- in particular Maple who he is pictured with.

Mallow

Gender/Age: Male 5yrs
Breed: Jack Russell Terrier
Colour: White & black
Location: Edenbridge

Mallow has sadly come back into us due to him being very highly strung. Mallow can be very vocal with dogs and would need a lot of very slow socialising once he has settled in. Mallow can take a long time to settle into a new environment as he can be very anxious so he needs a very patient owner who has lots of time to help him with this. Mallow has LOTS of energy and needs a very active owner to help burn this off, however he is treat responsive and loves enrichment toys. He loves his toys especially bouncy balls and will play for hours with them! He must be the only pet in an adult only home. Mallow has so much love to give and be can be affectionate on his terms. He needs a patient owner who understands that he will need time in a new environment.

Victor

Gender/Age: Male age TBC
Breed: Labrador x
Colour: Black
Location: Edenbridge

Victor was found running loose on our fields late at night in the cold covered in mud and soaking wet. We are unsure of how he got there but it was likely that he was dumped. He is a lovely boy who can be a little nervous at times but he's been getting a lot better over the past few days. Victor is a very sweet and affectionate boy who loves a cuddle and to play with his toys. He enjoys playing ball for a while until he looses interest to more exciting things. He loves his food and will do anything for a treat.

Victor is ok with other dogs but can be a bit unsure at first so will need some gentle socialising, he will need a patient and understanding owner who has the time to help him with this. He loves his walks and walks nicely on the lead so will need an active owner who can take him on lots of adventures. He loves everyone he meets and likes to stop and say hello to everyone.

Due to us having no previous history on Victor he cannot be homed with young children. He would be better suited as the only dog in the home for now due to his nerves around other dogs. He cannot be homed with any cats or small furries. Victor has become a firm staff favourite since arriving with us and would make a great companion. Please come down to our Edenbridge centre if you are interested in this lovely boy.

Maple

Gender/Age: Female 2yrs
Breed: Staffie Cross
Colour: Brindle
Location: Edenbridge

Maple has sadly came back to Last Chance for rehoming as the previous owners did not feel they could cope or deal with Maple’s needs. Maple is a large girl with a lot of energy and strength behind her. She loves to play with her toys however this can cause her to get overstimulated and starts to become rough with her people instead of her toys. So would need a confident owner who will be able to calm her down when she gets herself in this state of mind. Maple does walk well on the lead but she can be strong especially as she does have a high prey drive and will chase anything that moves including rubbish blowing in the wind so would need a strong owner and someone to further training to help her overcome this or to learn how to ignore all distractions on walk. Maple is a very sweet natured girl who is willing to learn and loves having a cuddle. Maple thinks she is a lap dog and loves sitting on your lap having her ears rubbed. She develops strong bonds with her people but especially to females in the home. Maple is good with other dogs depending on how they react and present themself to her first. Maple does have temper tantrums so will need an owner to help with this. Maple is looking to be the only pet in a home with especially no cats visiting from neighbouring gardens. Maple must go to an adult only home. Maple would benefit from a strong active home who has the time and patience to continue her training. Second photo is Maple with her mate Jackson.

Ralph

Gender/Age: Male 8yrs
Breed: Min Pin
Colour: Tan
Location: Edenbridge

Ralph has been with us for a little while now and he’s the kind of dog who needs time to get to know you. He can be unsure at first, but once he feels safe and trusts you, he’s a really friendly lad. When he’s settled, Ralph is full of energy and personality, with plenty of quirky little habits that make him very endearing. He can be stubborn and likes things his own way, and he doesn’t enjoy being pulled or handled when he’s not comfortable. In the past he has nipped as a way of saying “please give me space”. Ralph is looking for a calm, adult-only home with someone who understands dogs and is happy to go at his pace. He would be happiest as a one-to-one, but an experienced couple could be considered with the right introductions and plenty of patience.

Buddy

Gender/Age: Male 10 years
Breed: Bichon x JRT
Colour: White
Location: New Romney

Buddy is Looking for His Second Best Friend Buddy is my best friend here at the centre, and I would love nothing more than to find him a second best friend This cheeky old terrier knows exactly what he likes. He still enjoys his walks and exploring, and he’d love a secure garden where he can potter around. Because Buddy has a few behavioural quirks sadly Buddy has been returned 5 times, he needs an experienced home with no other pets or children — someone who understands stubborn terriers and can give him the patience and care he deserves.

Could you be Buddy’s second-best friend? Get in touch if you think you can offer him the forever home he’s been waiting for.

Buddy

Gender/Age: Male 6 yrs
Breed: Bulldog x Staffie
Colour: Fawn
Location: Edenbridge

Buddy was originally here as a puppy. He went to a new home for a year where he was not walked regularly and barely taken out the house. Therefore Buddy did not get the socializing he needed and developed fear aggression to any new person who entered his and his owners house, seeing them as a threat. So Buddy needs a strict one to one home with someone who has no visitors. Once Buddy knows you he is very affectionate and will bark at you for attention to lie all over you or to try the food you are eating. Buddy loves his food and treats and as he is a very slow walker and sometimes refusing to walk at all he needs a strict diet to help him maintain a healthy weight. Buddy loves his toys and will often throw them around to himself in excitement. His favourite toy is a dog friendly stick, although we have tried to give him more exciting toys he always goes back to his stick. Buddy can not live with any other dogs, cats or small animals.

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.

Pinky & Perky (aka The Pigs)!

Gender/Age: Females 8 yrs
Breed: Frenchies
Colour: Dark Brindle
Location: Edenbridge

Pinky and perky or the pigs as we all call them are not short of character! They will make you laugh everyday with their cheekiness and toddler like personality. They both love to play and would choose toys over treats. Perky loves to find the biggest cuddly toy she can and carry it around with her before ripping it up, Pinky loves all kinds of balls and will take herself off to her bed to chew on it. They both love attention and will come and sit on you for affection, perky will sit facing you breathing in your face whilst pinky will roll over for a belly scratch. Unfortunately due to not being socialised properly they take some time to get to know new people. Pinky more so than perky but once you’re in their club they are your best friends and will allow their owners to do anything with them. They can be vocal with dogs so would need to be the only dogs in the home. They cannot be homed with children, cats or any small animals. Pinky and perky are more like twins than sisters always doing things together and often copying each others movements exactly so will not be separated and have to be homed together.

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.

Tito

Gender/Age: Male 9yrs
Breed: Greyhound x Saluki
Colour: Tan
Location: New Romney

Hello I am Tito. I am a very loving dog, with the people I trust. I arrived at the New Romney rescue many years ago from a Welsh pound, no one knows my early previous history, but from my behaviour and the marks on my body, my friends at Last chance know I wasn't treated very nicely. Sometimes I can get anxious and see hands as a threat, I also struggle being out of my routine. One staff member says she is blessed to have my trust, I snuggle up for a fuss, offer her cuddles, demand a tummy tickle (poking my feet in her face) and enjoy her company on walks and in my kennel, but I admit, I do get jealous if anyone else is around us - even when I like the other people! I do get nervous around new people and situations, which sometimes means I can be a bit snappy. I am told I'm handsome and also super fit for my age, I can jump onto the picnic tables in our grounds in just one leap. I will run around the grounds chasing the wild rabbits and squirrels, but birds are my real nemesis, if only I could climb trees!!! I also love sunbathing on the grass and playing catch with my big ball, but I prefer the right company over treats and games and don't like to be left on my own. I am definitely not keen on walks in the rain or the cold! Due to my past experiences (and from the information my friends at Last Chance have gathered on my previous adoptions), I'm told I need a very special and experienced, single, adult only home, with no other animals, I may prefer a female human. Once I form a strong bond with you and feel safe, I will become your best friend, but this also means I will not want to share you, I have waited so long for you I want you all to myself!! I need a quiet home, with a secure garden, very rare visitors and definitely no children visiting! It would be best if you have a very structured routine that I could fit in to. I will need multiple visits from any potential adopter, so we can get used to each other. If you think I could be your best friend 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. I have been at New Romney for a very long time, please consider me. Love Tito x

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
