    Scooby

    mixed breed · approximately 5 months old · Male

    Co. Cork, Ireland

    Meet Scooby! Scooby is an adorable boy, approximately 5 months old and a mixed breed. He’s a sweet-natured little lad who is looking for his forever home. Scooby would benefit from a home with another medium-to-large dog who can match his playful energy and help him learn. His new family will need to continue his training. Scooby is super clean in his kennel, which is a promising sign that he should take well to house training. Scooby has previously lived with a cat. He was keen to play, but when the cat told him off, he quickly learned to respect its boundaries! Scooby is still a young pup with lots to learn, plenty of love to give, and a whole lifetime of adventures ahead of him. Could you be the one to give this sweet boy the forever home he deserves?

    Jackie

    Dog · 18 months old · Female

    Co. Cork, Ireland

    JACKIE IS LOOKING FOR HER FOREVER HOME!l Jackie came into our care yesterday after her elderly owner sadly had to surrender her due to health issues. At just 18 months old, Jackie has her whole life ahead of her and so much love to give. She is an absolute sweetheart who deserves a loving family to call her own. Ideally she needs an active home where she can enjoy plenty of walks, playtime and adventures. A secure garden and possibly another friendly dog for company. Jackie will have all her veterinary work completed before adoption, so she’ll be ready to start her next chapter with her forever family. All Jackie needs now is someone to give her the love, security and happiness she deserves. If you can offer Jackie a 5 home, please get in touch! Please share to help this lovely girl find her happy ever after.

  • Dustin – Photo 1 of 3

    Dustin

    Wheaten · 22 months · Male · Medium

    Co. Cork, Ireland

    This handsome Wheaten boy is looking for a home with another doggy companion in the countryside. No negative comments please: This is Dustin, our 22-month neutered Irish Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier. He has a soft, golden, non-shedding coat. I always thought Dustin and I would grow old together, so writing this breaks my heart. We’re rehoming him because our home is surrounded by fields with horses, and he’s become fixated on them. Every opportunity he gets he is in the fields rounding them up, putting both him and the horses at risk. For the last six months we have tried everything, but nothing can match his herding instinct. The space is too big to fence in, and building a pen and keeping him penned up while all the neighbouring dog friends play freely would be no life for such a sociable boy. He deserves somewhere he can run safely. Dustin’s recall is good but when it comes to the horses he is deaf and will not come back . He is going to get himself in trouble. Dustin is joyful, affectionate and full of character. He’s wonderful with children, loves everyone he meets, and is happiest playing with other dogs. He adores woodland walks, beach runs, car trips and the postman (who brings him biscuits!). He’s housetrained, knows lots of tricks, and is a champion cuddler. What I am hoping for: 1. A home with a doggy companion to play with. I think he would make a wonderful younger brother. 2. A large, secure garden away from livestock and with no access to traffic. Dustin is fully vaccinated, neutered and his vet records are available which show he’s prone to itchy paws, this is very manageable.

    Baby

    €60adoption fee

    Cat · 1 year · Female

    Co. Cork, Ireland

    Baby is approximately 1 year old and neutered. She is a quiet cat, never makes any trouble and she is very social. She would make a perfect 2nd or 3rd cat. She eats dry food only, doesn’t like wet food, but she likes raw chicken here and there. She is an indoor/outdoor cat (cat flap) and should get the opportunity to go outside. She might settle for an indoor-home only, but I am not sure. She is a sweet little cat who doesn’t require much attention. She’s not actively seeking attention or affection, it’s safe to say she is not a lap cat. She likes to cuddle with other cats. Not so much with humans. to apply for Baby, please fill out our adoption Questionnaire

  • Ruby – Photo 1 of 1

    Ruby

    €200adoption fee

    Dog · 4-5 years · Male

    Co. Cork, Ireland

    Ruby is a small Maltese mix, approximately 4–5 years old. We are not sure what he is mixed with, but he is a small dog. Ruby can be quite fearful and nervous, and we believe he may have had some difficult experiences earlier in life. There is also a possibility that he spent a lot of time tied or leashed outside when he was younger, which may help explain his strong fear of leads and some of his nervous behaviour. He can be territorial and may bark a lot, especially when he feels unsure or uncomfortable. Ruby is not leash trained and is very frightened of leads. When a leash is put on him, he tends to freeze rather than walk, so he would need a very patient and gentle approach to leash training. Ruby is affectionate and enjoys human attention. He will approach people himself for attention and especially likes head rubs. However, he can become nervous if he feels overwhelmed, so he is happiest when attention is given on his terms and his body language is respected. He has been patient around children and has not shown a tendency to bite. However, because he can be nervous and somewhat unpredictable when frightened, interactions with children should always be supervised and calm. Ruby does not seem bothered by cats, but he does not get along well with other dogs. He can become very reactive and aggressive around them, particularly in his own space. This is the main reason he is being rehomed, as there is now another small dog in the household and Ruby is not coping well with having another dog around. Because of this, Ruby would likely be best suited to a home where he is the only dog. He would benefit from an experienced, patient owner who understands fearful or reactive dogs and can give him time, space and consistent boundaries. A quieter home may suit him best, where he can gradually build trust and receive gentle training. to apply for Ruby, please fill out our Adoption Questionnaire

  • Benno – Photo 1 of 1

    Benno

    €200adoption fee

    Collie · 5 years · Male

    Co. Cork, Ireland

    Benno is a beautiful, healthy, 5 year-old rough collie looking for a quiet, loving home. He is a clever and energetic dog who needs regular exercise and stimulation. Benno is a lot of fun to be around when there’s a frisbee or ball to chase, and he loves to rub his back on a frosty lawn! Benno can be headstrong but is also keen to please and likes obedience training (with treats). Benno is not especially affectionate, but seeks out his our company and flops companionably at our feet in the evenings. Benno is highly reactive and reacts strongly to noises. He finds loud noises like motorbikes, blenders and vacuum cleaners threatening and reacts aggressively with barking. He also sometimes also barks at other sounds like laughter, singing or children playing on the street. He is overly protective of his household and can be aggressive towards visitors. He gets excited by airplanes (and will give chase). Benno has lived companionably with two cats, but has been the only dog since we adopted him as a puppy. When walking he is a bit nervous of small dogs and can be reactive to larger dogs, but also interested in meeting other dogs. Benno needs a peaceful home, maybe with teenagers but not young children. We’re looking for a quieter home (away from an airport flight path) and an experienced owner who can help Benno overcome his reactive and protective tendencies and become a happier and more settled version of himself. to apply for Benno, please fill out our Adoption Questionnaire

    Bobby and Pesto

    €60adoption fee

    Cat

    Co. Cork, Ireland

    Bobby (grey and white) and Pesto (black and white), are two beautiful 5-month old male kittens who are looking for their forever home. They are litter trained, neutered, microchipped, fully vaccinated and have been treated against fleas and worms. Both of the boys love to play and run around, have a great appetite, and always curl up together for a nap. Although they are still a little shy with people, they are gradually becoming more comfortable with receiving affection. A family who is happy to continue socialisation would be perfect. As they are very bonded, we are looking to rehome them as a pair. An indoor home with safe access to the outdoors would be ideal, but fully indoor homes will also be considered. They get on very well with other cats and kittens, so would be suitable for a home with or without existing cats.

    Dustin

    €200adoption fee

    Terrier · 21 months · Male

    Co. Cork, Ireland

    Meet Dustin , our 21-month-old neutered Irish Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier. He’s a registered purebred with papers, stands about 60cm tall, and has a soft, golden, non-shedding coat. I always thought Dustin and I would grow old together, so writing this breaks my heart. We’re rehoming him because our home is surrounded by horses, and he’s become determined to get into the fields to round them up, which puts both him and the horses at risk. We spent six months trying and considering everything: fencing, GPS collars and additional training, but nothing can match his herding instinct. The space is too big to fence in, and building a pen and keeping him penned up while his dog friends play freely would be no life for such a sociable boy. He deserves somewhere he can run safely. Dustin’s normal recall when walking off lead is very good, it’s when he goes into the horses his recall disappears… Dustin is joyful, affectionate and full of character. He’s wonderful with children, loves everyone he meets, and is happiest playing with other dogs. He adores woodland walks, beach runs, car trips and the postman (who brings him biscuits!). He’s housetrained, knows lots of tricks, and is a champion cuddler. What we’re hoping for: 1. A doggy companion to play with. He’d make a wonderful younger brother – Dustin does prefer larger dogs 2. A large, secure garden away from livestock and with no access to traffic. Dustin is fully vaccinated, and his March booster is already paid for. His vet records are available and show he’s prone to itchy paws, which is very manageable. Dustin is my shadow and the centre of our world. We love him beyond measure, and the hardest part is knowing we won’t see him grow into the wonderful adult dog we know he’ll be. If you think you could give him the home he deserves, please fill out the West Cork Animals Adoption Questionnaire.
