Contact the rescueAbout Realtin
Realtin is a gentle soul waiting for her moment to shine. She is a sweet but nervous young lady who has not yet had much experience of everyday life, so the world can feel a little overwhelming at first. With patience, kindness, and understanding, she has so much potential to grow in confidence and truly sparkle in a loving home. Realtin has recently spent time in a foster home, where she did really well and began to grow in confidence. Being in a home environment gave her the opportunity to start learning about everyday life, and it showed just how much she can flourish with patient support. Realtin will need a committed adopter who can support her on her journey as she learns what it means to feel safe and settled. She may take some time to adjust, but with reassurance and steady encouragement, you will begin to see her bright personality emerge. As her confidence builds, she will also need help with puppy basics training, all at her own pace. She is not yet walking on a lead, so a fully secure garden is essential. This will give her a safe space to explore, enjoy the outdoors, and gently begin practising her lead skills when she feels ready. Realtin would be happiest in an adult only home or with older, calm teens, ideally with a calm and confident resident dog who can guide her and help her understand the world. A canine companion will also need to be comfortable with her playful bursts of puppy energy as she grows in confidence. She may enjoy having a crate to retreat to when she is finding life a little overwhelming. With time, love, and patience, Realtin truly can become the shining little star she was meant to be.

How to adopt from Dogs Trust (ROI)
Apply to adopt online for the dog you're interested in; Dogs Trust contacts you to arrange meeting the dog. Dublin dogs are at the Finglas rehoming centre; dogs elsewhere are in foster care and can't be visited at a centre.
Adoption fees
Our adoption fee is €275 for adult dogs and this fee helps us to cover the costs of caring for over 1,500 dogs every year. Our fee for adopting a puppy under 6 months is €325. This includes the €275 rehoming fee and a reduced €50 online Dog School fee. Our Dog School classes help puppies learn key life skills and teach owners the basic training skills they need to create a strong bond with their new dog. Every dog adopted from Dogs Trust is microchipped, vaccinated and vet checked. If your new dog is not already neutered at the time of adoption, you will go home with a voucher of €150 towards the cost of neutering a male or €200 towards the cost of spaying a female dog at a local veterinary practice. You will also receive a starter bag of food, a collar and lead. Once they're at home, you'll be able to access advice from the centre team if you need to.
