Mutts dogs

Here are some of the dogs available for rehoming at Mutts in Distress. Please be aware that we cannot be sure how well any of the dogs will get on with any cats you may have at home.

These dogs are featured here because none of them were wearing ID discs when picked up and when scanned, none were microchipped. Look after your pet and get him microchipped – that way he will be returned to you if he strays. Dogs must wear ID tags by law. Ask at reception for disc engraving done while you wait and microchipping by appointment.

We have new dogs arriving at the centre every day and so the most recent arrivals may not feature on this page for a few days. Please contact us if you’d like more up to date information.

Please – think carefully when deciding to rehome a dog. Dogs are being let down by people who agree to take them but then change their minds. Only those who have passed a homecheck and bring the pass form with them, will be able to meet the dogs. This is both to avoid disappointment and because the kennels are a working business and kennel hands can not spend time with people who are not in a position to take a dog. Thank you for your understanding.

To apply to rehome one of the Mutts dogs, please complete our rehoming application form.

Footloose

Footloose has just arrived. He is young and so far in kennels has been super friendly. He is all legs and smiles!
More info as he settles in. His breed are generally happy to curl up and sleep after a walk and are not too demanding. They like a couch to spread out on and all of life's comforts!

Chance

A stunning male Saluki. Chance is about 3 years old. At the kennels, he will be tested with other animals. Whilst here in kennels, he has been a well mannered boy, not shy and very friendly. More info to follow.

Ruby

Ruby is a beautiful girl, very loyal and loving. She just wants to cuddle and be loved. Ruby would rather have a cuddle than her breakfast when she sees you in the morning! When she goes to the paddock, she likes to have a look around but then spends most of her time sitting on your feet nudging you for more cuddles. She will be a wonderful friend for some lucky person.

Magic

Magic is 5 years old, during his time with us at the kennels, he seems good with some dogs, not destructive at all, loves playing in water and is an all round lovely dog and is very photogenic! He needs a home with no small children or cats as he is a big bouncy boy. He knows paw, sit and bed. He needs a firm but kind home with a family that enjoy long walks and preferably who can attend our dog classes held each week. Magic has been in a foster home and has calmed down very well. He has experienced outdoor life, being a representative for Mutts at a shopping centre, on transport etc and has excelled.

Jyp

He is a middle aged Collie, who during his time with us at the kennels, has shown to be frightened of cats and a little shy at first but has now started to enjoy himself. He would enjoy a quiet adult only home. He's the sort of dog who would like to go for walks with his owner whilst his owner tells him all about his day. He'd like to sit in the pub garden and share a sausage roll. He is frightened about travelling in the car, so will need gentle coaxing to build up his confidence. He would also enjoy to stay in and watch tv with his owner. He's a real companion dog. Not demanding, just content to be with you.

Toby

Toby is young, very handsome, happy go lucky and medium sized. During his time with us at the kennels, he seems to love to play with toys. He is a very smart boy and loves training and learning. He responds really well and is a quick learner. He loves to please.

John Rudi

John Rudi is about 4 years old, another fantastic dog. He loves cuddles and a scratch. Poor JR was abandoned by his owners and is very sad. So let's make him happy again. During his time with us at the kennels, he seems to be wary of other dogs and socialising at our dog classes would really help his confidence in these situations. He needs an owner that will work with him and enjoy him. Older children would be best if there are any in the family. He has not been bothered by seeing cats so far.

Bullseye

Thought to be about 4yrs. So far in kennels, he seems to be choosy with his dog friends. A playful boy. No cats.

Ratatouille

This gorgeous boy is a sensitive young Saluki/Lurcher, who is still settling in. He's about 2 yrs old and very handsome. So far in kennels, he seems to prefer his own company, he can be antisocial with some dogs and would like to be the only dog in the home. No cats.Walks well on the lead and is a gentle soul.

Dash

Meet Dash. He is looking very handsome now his hair is growing back, after his previous 'owners' had completely shaved it off. A very sweet young man. So far in kennels, he has been a quiet, gentle boy. However, no cats. A gorgeous, sensitive boy who loves people and loves a cuddle. He insists he has a cuddle in the morning berfore he will eat his breakfast. He walks beautifully on the lead. Dash knows how to sit and will be a very loving companion.

Toots

When Tootsie first arrived, he was extremely scared of anyone and everything. Mutts have been working on him and so far in kennels,he is gaining confidence well. He is about 2 years old. Now starting to walk on a lead. He can get worried with changes, so is looking for a quiet home and an owner with plenty of time and patience, who will come and sit with him to gain his trust. A home with older children could be considered. He is going to need gentle, slow progress.

Bullseye 2

Bullseye 2 is a large lump of cuddliness. Approximately 2yrs old. He was nervous at first but since arriving at the kennels, has learnt to trust more and is now a happy,waggy boy who loves a fuss and a cuddle. He has lived in a home previously. He would like to be the only dog in a quiet home, with no young children due to his size. He's a lovely boy. He's not demanding, enjoys a cuddle, a snooze and a potter about. Unwanted and dumped at the vets to be put to sleep by his previous owner, he is ready and waiting for someone to give him his forever home.

Smiley Beverley

Beverley is about 3 years old. A Lurcher cross. She loves people. So far in kennels, she has shown an interest in cats. She can walk with other dogs but would prefer not to live with them. She walks well on the lead. She would like a home with no small children as they scare her. Teenage dog savvy children only please.

Josie

Josie is a gorgeous girl with beautiful colouring. She is about 5 yrs old, spayed and vaccinated. She so far in kennels, has been a happy girl, who loves to play in the paddock. She loves a cuddle and will make a great companion for her new owner. She would like a home with older children as she can be bouncy.

Luhan

Arriving soon from appalling conditions in Spain. Luhan is young, medium size about 18kg. Poor Luhan has been put in the cage with other big dogs and they are picking on him. He is such a gentle, submissive soul that he will be a prime target and may not last long in there. The wonderful people at Mutts have offered him a place, so he can be safe and have a happy future. He is soon going into a foster placement and will be travelling to Mutts in October.
