SPECIAL HOME NEEDED 🤍✨ It’s me Lilly, just checking in and letting you all know I’m still waiting for my forever home! I’m a super duper pretty 3/4yr old Dogue De Bordeaux 🤍 I’ve had a really sad start to life, I was dumped and left to fend for myself but thankfully some lovely people found me and brought me to safety. I really am a good girl, I love my friends here at the sanctuary and I’m so eager to please and learn! I know my basic commands, I love my food and I love a good zoomie 😃 I can be shy at first but don’t be fooled!! I love my walkies and I’m doing amazing with my lead training, I currently walk on a Kumfi Kalmer and my buddy has said I’m a delight to walk ☺️ I have been through a lot in my short life, I don’t like meeting lots of new people as I find it overwhelming. I need a quiet home who are willing to dedicate time to socialising me. I’m not reactive on the lead but I don’t like it when dogs come into my face and I will tell them off, I would like a home without other animals please! I need a home without children. If you can offer me a loving, safe and secure home please apply below ⬇️ https://carlalaneanimalsinneed.co.uk/adoption-questionnaire/
Our snow queen, Jan 🤍🤩 Lovely Jan is a 3 year old American bulldog, she has come into us through no fault of her own, her family had an unfortunate change in circumstances. Jan is a sensitive girl initially quite shy and withdrawn, she can be wary and reactive to new people however it doesn’t take long at all to make friends with Jan, she’s a proper foodie! She loves cheese and sausages, as soon as she has taken a couple of treats she is your best pal. She is very playful and outgoing when having free time in the compound, typical young bullie, bouncing around throwing toys for herself. She’s a real character and would make a fantastic companion for the right person. She does seem to favour women but has come around to the company of the lads. She needs a strong and confident owner willing to socialise her and train her on the lead. Jan is used to being left alone for 2-4 hours per day and is a real couch potato and cuddle monster 💕 If you would like to apply to adopt Jan please fill in the application form below. Jan is looking for an American bulldog experienced owner who is strong and capable of walking a large dog. https://carlalaneanimalsinneed.co.uk/adoption-questionnaire/

Mabel is DEAF, she knows her basic hand signals and is an intelligent lady! Mable loves her home comforts and loves being around her favourite people. Mabel does have some separation anxiety and needs somebody in most of the day, she is doing excellent with her crate training. Mabel walks well on her lead, she is currently undergoing some training as she can be reactive on the lead however we do feel this is due to kennel stress, when she initially came into us she was not reactive and was happy to walk near/next to other dogs. Any potential home must understand she needs time to settle before expecting too much from her, NO dog settles into a home straight away! Mabel really is an amazing girl, she is a firm favourite with the staff and volunteers here at the rescue 🥹 Mabel needs a pet free home without young children. If you have a Mabel shaped space on your couch, please apply below ⬇️ https://carlalaneanimalsinneed.co.uk/adoption-questionnaire/
Please meet Gaffer, he is an absolutely beautiful 6yr old Staff boy. Gaffer is a super friendly, loving and affectionate boy. Gaffer has had a difficult few years but is still so resilient and has not let anything get in his way of being a happy playful chap 🤍 Unfortunately there was an public altercation incident in his previous home, this meant all the dogs in the home where seized by police and given a Court Order. The courts and independent behaviouralists have deemed Gaffer a safe, friendly and loving boy and he can safely be rehomed. He will need a responsible adult only home without any other pets. He will need a capable and competent owner that will abide rules and regulations stated on his order. We know that unfortunately this may put some people off, but we really hope that somebody can look past this and fall in love with this truly fabulous boy like we all have here at the sanctuary 🙏🏼 Gaffer is good out and about with other dogs and is very well behaved but as per his order needs a pet free home.

My name is Elmo (was Bruno) and I’m an older boy 10+ but am still quite active and love a walk on my lead. I’m a very anxious old man and get extremely worried if I can’t see anyone. I can’t get up or down stairs so I’m very vocal once I see you going up until you come back down. I also react to all noises so feel a very quiet household would be perfect. I don’t mind other dogs or cats and happy to share a sofa with them. I absolutely love food and had quite a wide waistline till my foster mum put me on a diet and I’m loving my new trimmed look so would like to stay on this diet as it’s better for my heart murmur. Also enjoy the groomers. As it’s my later years I’d just love a to be a full time companion to someone who’s home most of the time and who doesn’t have them dam stairs I can’t seem to navigate so a one level flat/appartment or bungalow would be pawfect. I’d be a fabulous companion to someone who’s home alone all day or with limited ability. Please apply below if Elmo sounds like a match for you. ⬇️ https://carlalaneanimalsinneed.co.uk/adoption-questionnaire/
