Violet is a spunky little terrier with a big personality wrapped up in a small, adorable package. She's had a tough few months and has shown incredible resilience even when she had to have one eye removed due to an old injury. Despite everything, Violet's spirit shines through. She's a sensitive girl who likes to take her time getting to know new people. But once she feels safe and comfortable, she becomes a wonderfully cuddly companion who enjoys gentle affection and quiet moments by your side. True to her terrier nature, Violet also has an independent streak. She prefers to explore at her own pace and isn't a fan of being picked up. Walking and wandering under her own steam is much more her style. Violet is seeking a calm, quiet home as the only pet, ideally in a peaceful area away from busy streets and heavy traffic. She isn't keen on other dogs, so she'll thrive with owners who can give her tranquil walks where she won't have to encounter many canine neighbours. If you're looking for a small dog with a huge heart, a gentle soul, and a spark of terrier sass, Violet may be the perfect addition to your home.

Rico is a very friendly bulldog who’s 5 years of age. Currently in one of our foster homes, Rico is very well behaved and gets on well with other dogs. He is good with any children he has met and has not bothered the resident cat. Rico is considered a brilliant dog who, apart from being strong on the lead, has received a great report card from his fosterer. He requires a home with a strong adult handler.
Meet Charlie, a handsome Collie with a clever mind, an affectionate heart and plenty of energy to share. He’s looking for a calm, understanding home where he can continue to build his confidence and enjoy life at his own pace. Charlie is a wonderful Collie who thrives on companionship and loves spending time with his people. Affectionate and incredibly intelligent, he's a quick learner who enjoys training, belly rubs and being part of the family. He can get very excited when meeting new people because all he really wants is to be loved. Charlie would do best as the only dog in the home. While he can learn to be around other dogs, he needs time to build trust and can be reactive, so a home without canine companions will allow him to feel more relaxed and secure. Like many Collies, Charlie is active and enjoys having both physical exercise and mental stimulation. His ideal home would be in the countryside or a quiet area with a large, secure garden where he can run, play and explore. He'd love an active owner who can enjoy runs or games with him away from busy places, as unfamiliar or crowded environments can make him anxious. Charlie walks well on the lead and has been trained to comfortably wear a muzzle when out and about. This is simply to keep him safe if he becomes overwhelmed in unfamiliar situations. He also travels well in the car and is happy to come along on adventures. Charlie is not suitable to live with cats and is looking for a home with children aged 10 years and over . With the right home, Charlie will reward his family with unwavering loyalty, affection and a lifetime of companionship.

Meet Igloo, a sweet and lovable hound cross with a playful spirit just waiting to shine. He can be a little shy when meeting new people, but give him a little time and you will quickly discover his goofy, affectionate, and fun-loving personality. Once he feels comfortable, Igloo is happiest exploring the world around him, enjoying adventures, and spending time with his people. This handsome boy is very food motivated, so treats are the perfect way to win him over and help him learn. With some gentle guidance and basic training, Igloo will thrive and love showing off just how clever he can be. Igloo also enjoys the company of other polite dogs and could make a wonderful companion for another friendly canine. He is looking for a patient and understanding home where someone will be around most of the time initially to help him settle in. Over time, with reassurance and consistency, he will gradually build confidence being left alone. Igloo is a truly lovely dog with so much love and joy to give to the right family.
“A Little Bit About Me” Cricket was adopted from us as a puppy but unfortunately was surrendered back into our care as family circumstances changed – these cases are particularly hard as the dog finds it very difficult to adapt into kennel life again after being out in the world. Poor Cricket is getting stressed in kennels and needs a particular type of experienced owner to come and meet him to see if we can give him the chance and life he so deserves. Cricket is a Shepherd x, he is 4 years old and has beautiful markings and he really has the most amazing eyes • He is neutered, vaccinated & microchipped • Cricket would like a home with no children, because he is very strong. • He is very energetic and loves running to leave off steam – true to his breed • Cricket can walk with another dog and dogs can walk past him – he is not reactive this way – he just wishes for his own pad • He travels very well in the car looking at the world outside • Cricket is very clever & quick to learn new skills • He just needs to get to know you and trust you • Cricket is very good on the lead – he can be quite strong so he walks on his harness – you will certainly get a good walk inIf you feel you can be that person / couple for Cricket please get in touch adoptions@paws.ie

Meet Tiko, a gentle and sensitive boy looking for a calm home where he can truly blossom. Tiko can be a little reserved when meeting new people and likes to take his time sussing things out, but once he learns to trust you, his affectionate side starts to shine and he is more than happy to seek out attention and companionship from his favourite people. Tiko is still learning about the world around him and has had limited experience walking on a lead, so he will need patient and understanding adopters who are happy to work with him slowly and at his own pace. A fully secure garden will be important for him while he builds his confidence and settles into home life. Out and about, Tiko is happy calmly passing other dogs, but he would prefer to be the only pet in the home so he can enjoy all the love and attention to himself. Due to his gentle and sensitive nature, he is looking for a quiet, adult only household where life is predictable and peaceful. With kindness, patience, and time, Tiko has all the potential to become a wonderfully loyal companion for someone willing to let him move at the pace that feels right for him.
