STOUR VALLEY DOGS
Lewna
Suspended adoption applications!
Lewna is an 8-year-old Patterjack looking for a loving new home after a very difficult change in circumstances. She has been deeply loved and well cared for throughout her life, and it shows in the lovely nature she has brought with her.
She is fully vaccinated, spayed, up to date with flea and worm treatments, and has received regular veterinary care. Lewna has enjoyed a good diet, enrichment, and training, and has clearly been an important and cherished member of the family.
Lewna is currently settling into foster care, where she is taking time to adjust and decompress. As we learn more about her personality and needs, we will update her profile with details about the kind of home that would suit her best, she will need to be the only dog to enjoy all the pampering.
She is a sweet, deserving girl who has a lot of love still to give, and we know there will be someone special out there ready to offer her the happy next chapter she deserves.
If you think you could offer Lewna a kind, secure, and loving forever home, please get in touch.
MOSHU
Available for adoption
Moshu is a charming little character who is 95% sweetheart and 5% stubborn old man! At 11 years old, this Romanian rescue has been in foster care for the past year, and now he’s looking for a special forever home.
He’s a friendly chap, both dog and cat-friendly, and is microchipped and neutered. Moshu adores cuddles and affection, but only on his terms. He needs time to build trust, but once he does, he’ll happily be your little shadow. He took to his foster family's daughter straight away and welcomes visitors with no fuss.
Now, Moshu does have a few quirks. Grooming? Absolutely not, he hates it and needs to be sedated for it. Leads? No thanks, he prefers to potter around the garden or enjoy occasional visits to a secure dog field. He only has a few teeth left, but if he gets cross, he knows how to use them!
That said, Moshu isn’t a difficult dog, just one who knows what he wants. He follows house rules, can be left for short periods, and mostly just wants a quiet, understanding home. If you’re looking for a low-maintenance companion with a big personality, Moshu might just be the perfect fit.
Could you be the one to give Moshu the retirement home he deserves?
Anya
Suspended adoption applications!
Anya is a lovely 4-month-old puppy with a sweet nature and lots of personality. She can be a little shy when meeting new people at first, but as she absolutely loves people, she soon comes round and enjoys the attention.
She is a typical playful puppy who enjoys fun and games, and she gets on well with the other dogs in the home. She is especially fond of Luka, although like many young pups she can sometimes be a little cheeky and boisterous.
Anya is still learning all the basics, including housetraining, so she will need continued patience and consistency from her adopters. She is very food-motivated, which will be helpful for training, though she may try to sneak another dog’s dinner if given the chance!
She currently sleeps through the night, although she does like to know where her people are and may follow if someone gets up. She is also learning that being left alone for short periods is okay, and this is something her new family will need to continue building gradually.
Anya has only had a couple of car journeys so far, so she may need a little more time and practice to build confidence with travel.
She has had a full health check with Damory and no issues were found. She weighs 8.2kg, is vaccinated and microchipped.
Anya is not yet spayed, and this will need to be arranged by her adopters in line with the adoption contract.
Anya is a bright, affectionate young girl who would thrive in a loving home ready to guide her through puppyhood and enjoy watching her grow.
Jill
Suspended adoption applications!
Jill is slowly coming out of her shell and beginning to trust the humans around her. She is becoming more curious and will now approach for fuss and strokes — but very much on her own terms. She's still a very nervous little girl and needs patience, understanding, and a calm environment to continue building confidence.
She absolutely adores food and is settling in well with eating. Jill has also been enjoying spending time around the other dogs, although she has shown guarding behaviors around food, resting spots, the crate, and people she feels attached to. Because of this, we feel Jill would be best suited as the only dog in the home where she can feel safe and secure without needing to compete for resources.
Jill is still very young and currently teething — she has already lost several puppy teeth. She is also not yet house trained, so her future family will need to be prepared for ongoing puppy-style training and routine.
Jim
Available for adoption
Jim is a sweet, playful little character with a gentle, shy side. He loves a fuss and will happily give you the cutest kisses, then dash back to his safe spot as if to say, “that was lovely… but I'll just recharge for a moment!”
He's friendly with people and really enjoys company, but he will need a patient home that lets him grow in confidence at his own pace. Jim is starting to discover the joy of toys and absolutely loves his food, so he'll be great to train with tasty rewards!
He isn't housetrained yet, so his new family will need to help him learn the ropes, but he's a clever boy with lots of potential.
Jim is vaccinated and microchipped, and will need to be neutered when he is old enough.
Orsi
Suspended adoption applications!
Orsi is an absolute sweetheart, a big, loving girl who adores human company and wants nothing more than to be by your side. She's incredibly affectionate and will happily flop onto her back at your feet, asking for endless tummy rubs.
She has a gentle nature and so much love to give, but she will need a home that can help her continue learning the basics, including housetraining, which she's already making good progress with.
Orsi is still being evaluated around other dogs, so for now a home where introductions can be managed carefully would be ideal.
She is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped, and is ready to find a family who will give her the love and security she truly deserves.
Lori
Available for adoption
Lori is a quiet, gentle girl who enjoys a calm environment and loves her creature comforts. She’s happiest curled up on the sofa beside you, enjoying a fuss and plenty of affection.
She would make a wonderful companion for someone looking for a loyal, laid-back friend, particularly in a quieter home. Lori is very clean indoors and enjoys having her own safe space to relax in.
At the moment, Lori prefers home comforts over walks and is still building her confidence outside, so she’ll need a patient adopter who can help her settle at her own pace.
Houdini
Houdini - Long-Term foster
Houdini is in long-term foster placement, where he will continue to receive the support and guidance he needs. His foster family are working with him on lead acclimatisation, helping him build confidence and develop this important skill at a pace that suits him.
Long-term fostering can be a fantastic option for some rescue dogs, giving them the stability of a home environment while allowing them to continue learning and progressing. We're delighted that Houdini has this opportunity and look forward to following his journey.
Please let us know if you see a dog you would like to meet!
PROCESS TO ADOPT
The whole family, plus any other dogs in the household, would meet the dog at his/her foster home. After this meeting, all being well, if you decide you would like to go ahead with adoption a Home Check will be arranged.
Following a successful Home Check the adoption can proceed.
There is a minimum donation of £375 payable on adoption.
In the case of more than one person being interested in a dog (this certainly is the case with most puppies) a decision will be made as to which home is most suitable for the dogs needs. We do not operate on a first come first served basis, the home that is best suited will be selected.
All dogs looking for a home are posted on our Facebook page and website.
Please be aware that a visit is not a guarantee that you will be able to adopt. We do reserve the right to select the best matched home for each of our dogs. I hope you understand that they are our priority.
