Welcome to our Rehoming page

Buster is a 12 month old, neutered and docked male.  He is a big dog and was brought to us by his previous because owners they were not experienced with large breeds and felt that they could not cope with him.  He is extremely boisterous and has not been trained.  He does pull on the lead and jump up.  He would obviously not be suitable for a home where there young children.  He needs an experienced Rottie home where he could be taught how to behave.  He is a loving dog but at the moment is very confused and cannot understand why he has  ended up in kennels.  In the right home and after some time spent training him, he will make a super, loyal boy.  It would be better if Buster was the only pet in the household since he has not been well socialised.


Sylvia was found wandering in central London with a collar and lead attached, taken to the local pound but never claimed.   She is docked. She is an absolutely gorgeous girl.  She is extremely loving and gets on with almost all the dogs she meets.  At present she lives with a 5 year old male and they get on famously.  Unfortunately, she does have some mobility problems and anyone who considers her will have to be aware that she cannot walk a very long way. She is quite happy to potter around our field at the kennels.  She adores cuddles and fuss and would make someone a wonderful loving and loyal companion.


Rudi (Rudolph) came to us at Christmas, hence the name.  He was taken in by another kennels as a stray but they felt he was such a lovely boy they would try and find someone to take him rather than have to put him to sleep. As you can see he is a very handsome boy.  We think he is between 3-4 years old and is docked.  He is very friendly and loves his walks.  Because we have no history we could not let him be rehomed to home where there are small children but a home with older teenage children would be fine.  He is an active, happy boy who does suffer from "rottie deafness" when he finds something interesting.  He could share a home with a bitch.  He would make a loyal and loving addition to the right family.


Marley is approximately 15 months old and has not had a very good life.  His previous owner was unable to care for him properly and he was rescued by a kind neighbour.  Nevertheless, he is a happy, active boy who would love a home where he could continue with his training.  Due to the fact that he was not treated very well in his previous life Marley, needs to be an only dog and also, a home where there are no young children.  An experienced home is essential.  Marley, needs a home where there is routine and where he will be able to be feel secure and loved.


Blondie and Ruby
Inseparable sisters who came to us with another sister and a brother who have since been rehomed.  They were originally two of ten rotties that all lived together.  Unfortunately, the owner of the land where they lived decided that the dogs and their owner should move and, unfortunately, they had to be split.  The two that we have already rehomed have now settled after taking sometime to adapt to being only children but we feel that it would not be fair to separate these two girls since Blondie is very shy and depends so much on Ruby.  Anyone considering these two would have to have lots of patience and a quiet household would be essential.  They are both quite nervous on first meeting, especially Blondie, and it will take sometime for them to get used to living in a home.  They are both spayed and would, for someone who had lots of time, patience and love, make two devoted girls.  They are two years old and have not lived in a home but if the other two are anything to go by would enjoy being part of a loving family.


Astra is a very energetic 6 year old Rottie girl who was brought to us by a Vet from Pembrokeshire who could not bear to put her to sleep.  Her previous owners had had a baby and decided that they did not want Astra any longer.  She is very very energetic and needs a lot of attention, I think probably that she had been ignored a lot in her previous home.  She would suit a family who love the outdoors and lots of walks and who have plenty of time to spend with her.  She is very sweet and loves lots of attention and cuddles.  She will be fine with older children but I think she would need to be an only dog.


Wallis is a castrated male of approximately 4 years old.  He is a lovely boy who shows no aggression whatsoever and is clean, obedient and tolerates other dogs.  He is a very friendly boy who enjoys his fusses.  He has been fostered for a while, but now would really love to have a home of his own. You can contact Sheila on 01782 751105 for more details about him.


Stella is a big, strong girl 2/3 years old.  Very loving and happy.  Very choosey with her doggie friends.  A lovely girl, who has been spayed.  She came from a loving home where it was felt that she was not getting enough time and attention.  She loves her walks in the field but probably would be best walked on a Dogmatic head collar since she is such a strong girl.  She is no problem in the kennels and loves everyone.  She also adores her food, particularly custard creams and carrots.  She would make a lovely bitch for a family where there were older children and where she could be the only pet.


Horatio is a 2½ year old castrated male who is looking for a new home.  He is friendly with people, gets on well with bitches and currently lives with 2 cats who he likes to keep clean even when they tell him off he is not deterred.  He likes his walks and could live with older teenager children, but not young ones.  He travel well in the car, is good at the vet and is reasonable trained with good manners although he can be a bit possessive over bones if he is given them.  Ideally an experienced home would be required who can give him the time and patience to settle into his new home.


Rocky is a 2 year old male Rottweiler. He is fully vaccinated, wormed and neutered. He has a lovely temperament, a little timid at first but with a stable family life would make a fabulous family pet. He is good with other dogs, but has not been tested with cats.  As we are unsure of his history he could not live with young children, although teenage children may be ok.


Chico is a most handsome, biddable boy of approximately 4/5 years old.  Before being rescued he had spent most his life tied to a post.  Despite this he is the most loving, gentle and well behaved boy.  At present he lives with two bitches (Blondie and Ruby) and they get on very well.  He has obviously not been out and about very much and is quite frightened of normal every day traffic.  He loves a fuss and his walks round the field with his ladies.  He is one of easiest dogs in our kennels and deserves a home where he will be loved and cared for.  He will easily live with a couple of girls but because we have no history we would not recommend a home where there are small children.  Older teenage children would not pose a problem although I do not think he would enjoy a very rowdy household.  I think that he would easily adapt to indoor living although, a cosy kennel would also be acceptable.


Della is quite a big girl.  Approximately 2 years old and very affectionate.  We have no history of Della since she came to us as a stray.  She has no issues other than she does not like other dog, but this maybe overcome with training and socialisation.  She loves to be out and about and would love to be part of a family.  Della would make a lovely, affectionate member of a family with older children.  She learns very quickly and we are sure that with a little training and lots of love and affection Della would be an asset to any family.


Max is approximately 19 months of age.  He is a lively and affectionate lad who has been castrated.  He enjoys being out and about and is full of fun and energy.  He will need ongoing training and socialisation since he is not too keen on other dogs.  He will make an excellent dog for an experienced rottie home where there at teenage children.  He would enjoy being part of a lively and energetic household.


Ella is 3 year old entire bitch, although will be spayed before being rehomed. She is a solid chunky girl who is a petite rottie. She loves people and loves getting a fuss. She can be a typical bossy Rottie bitch who needs an experienced owner and would benefit from further training. She can get a bit excitable but this needs channelling into some form of training.  She is though not to keen on other dogs – but we feel she may well be fine paired with a calm male Rottie.


Sid is only two years old and came from a home where he was well loved and looked after for the eight months after he was rescued from a pound.  He is neutered.  Sid is a bit of a fool, he is very funny and gets very excited when he thinks  its time to go for a walk or when his food is coming.  He is a very loving dog and his previous owner assured us that he never gave them one day where they regretted adopting him. He seems to get on with almost anything.  There was a young child, approximately 5 years old, in his home and he was totally trustworthy.  The only reason he came to us was because his owner developed serious asthma and the dander and dog hairs were contributing to the problem.  He was given up very reluctantly.  He would suit a home where there was plenty going, possibly with children from 11 upwards.  An experienced owner, because of his size and boisterousness.


Tasha is a strong girl who needs an experienced home.  She hates being in kennels and would need to have someone with her quite a lot of the time since she does suffer from separation anxiety.  Tasha would benefit very much from a home where she was the "only child".  She is extremely fit and will walk miles.  She is a lovely girl but not a "sit on your knee" rottie, but she would no doubt, in the right home, be a wonderful addition.  She is spayed and we recommend an adult home.  Tasha has been with us for quite a while now and we would be delighted if we could find her forever home.


Diesel is a two year old male and is a very reserved boy who likes his own company.  Unfortunately he has not been socialised with other  dogs and really would have be the only one in a home.  He would possibly suit someone who would like a dog that likes his walks and some interaction, but he is not a "cuddly" boy.  He could live outside, but it must be "Gold Star".   Obviously, a home with no other pets and no children would be best for this serious boy.


Jake is a 1 year old neutered male and there is nothing wrong with his eyes, it is just the light from the camera.  He is still very much a teenager and like any young dog he needs further training and socialisation.  He is friendly with people and dogs.  He loves his treats, enjoys playing with his toys and likes being groomed.  He has no obvious problems apart from being young and needing further training.  He could live with another dog and possible with teenage children where he will be part of a family.


Bear is a 3 year old castrated male.  He has a friendly temperament, loves people and other dogs.  He is good on a lead, likes his treats, enjoys playing with his toys and is good with grooming.  He also knows some basic commands.  He would probably be best in a urban environment and not near livestock, but could easily live with another dog in an adult environment. 


Alfie has been with us a long time now and it really is a puzzle because he is a lovely "teddy" type rottie.  He is approximately 4 years old, neutered with a tail.  He does not really like other dogs but will walk with a female and could possibly live with a quiet girl.  He does not have obvious problems and enjoys sitting out in the run watching the world go by.  He also likes going out round the lanes where he can investigate all the new smells that have appeared and to finish off, a big cuddle on the dog bench.  He is a strong boy and is walked on a dogmatic and this makes walking him a pleasure. Alfie really does need his forever home now.  He could possibly live with older teenage children and as stated before he may get on with a quiet bitch but there could be no other pets in the household.


Keira is a lovely 4 year spayed bitch.  Her world was turned upside down when first she had a road accident and unfortunately lost the sight of one eye and then her owner decided to take a job abroad and could not take her with him.  She has been loved and cared for and is excellent on the lead, but now because of her restricted sight any new owner would need to be aware that when approached by other dogs on her blindside she can be startled and will sometimes  "shout" at them.  Keira would have to live in a quiet home where she could regain her confidence.  She would love to have a forever home where she could be secure and know that she was loved and once again be an important member of a loving family. It is recommended that she is homed in a quiet household where there are no children or other pets.


Molly is 2 year old currently unspayed bitch, but would be spayed before rehoming. She came to RWA due to a marriage breakup - and the family were very sad to have to give her up for rehoming. Molly is a typical Rottie bitch - so can be a tad stubborn - but is easily bought with a biscuit. She loves fusses and sitting nice and close. She has lived with kids 7 years and above. She is not keen on other dogs or cats, so it would be better if Molly was the "only one".  Since she came Molly has become somewhat of a favourite since she is always happy to see anyone who is prepared to take her for walk.  She is good on the lead and would make a lovely member of a family.


Indy is a 1 year old bitch who would be spayed before being rehomed.  She is very friendly with people and is fine with other dogs.  She obviously needs further training and socialisation but does know a few basic commands.  She is an all round nice girl who would love an active family home.  She could live with teenage children or children of 9+ provided they have experience of living with a large young dog.


Digger came to us from an older owner who because of ill health felt that she could no longer give him the attention and exercise he deserves.  He is a very friendly people dog and quite a nice looking boy.  He is about 2½ years old, very fit and he is entire at the moment, but may be castrated before being rehomed. depending on the home.  He walks well on the lead and enjoys his food.  He is very happy and does not appear to have any issues other than that he has not been socialised with other dogs.  Consequently, it would be better for him to go an experienced home with older children where he would an "only dog".


Taz is a 2 year old entire male.  He is our Mr Scruffy as he always seems to get messed up just after he has been groomed or washed.  He is a young dog who still thinks he is a puppy.  He has a lovely nice friendly nature and he just loves everyone.  He is good with dogs, loves his food, treats and toys.  He knows some basic commands but being young still needs training and socialisation.  He could easily live with another dog and possibly teenager children. 


Rosie is a 3.5 year old spayed bitch.  She has a friendly temperament and his good with people and other dogs.  She loves her toys and his good with her food and likes to be groomed.  She understands basic commands, does not jump up and is good on the lead.  She will require an experienced home with no children.


Vinnie is a 3 year old male who come into our care because his owner died.  He can be a typical male rottie who at first can be wary of strangers until he gets to know them and then he is absolutely lovely and wants his fusses.  He is good on the lead, loves his treats and is ok with most dogs if they leave him alone.  He does do most basic commands.  We feel that he would be better in an adult only home and probably best as an only dog.


Kofi is a 3 year old female who is a good girl, who gets on well with people and other dogs, although she can get a bit bossy with dogs so any new owner needs to be aware of this.  She has a nice temperament, walks well on the lead, loves her food and treats and loves her toys.  She knows some basic commands but probably would easily learn others.  She could live in an adult home with another dogs.
