Bobby is fully house trained and also has no issues with being left alone at home with a kong that she can enjoy to keep her occupied- on arrival home Bobby will bark and Jump out of excitement to see you.

Bobby loves going for a walk and loves the beach however does have to stay on a lead as her recall is not good, Bobby also does love the forest however does stop every 5 seconds to have a sniff.

On a walk Bobby loves to say hello to everyone however unfortunately does not like to meet cats.

Bobby can live with older children above 14 but not below.

🚨 Please Read: A Message to Anyone Looking to Rehome Their Dog 🚨

We’re sharing this post because recently we’ve had an increasing number of people asking us to rehome their dogs, then changing their minds, going silent, or rehoming the dog elsewhere after we’ve already started helping. This is becoming a serious problem and it is directly affecting our ability to support other dogs who desperately need us.

We are a small volunteer-run rescue. Every one of us has jobs, families, and other responsibilities. We give up our free time to help dogs in need and when someone contacts us for help, we take it seriously and act quickly.

But when people back out or stop responding partway through, it wastes a huge amount of our time and energy. It also prevents us from helping other dogs who may have no other option.

Please only contact us if you are completely certain about your decision to rehome and have already tried other options, such as asking trusted friends or family. Rehoming through a responsible rescue is not a quick or casual solution. It is a careful process focused on your dog’s long-term welfare.

Here is how the process works:

- We ask detailed questions to fully understand your dog and their needs

- We check our list of approved adopters to see if anyone is a suitable match

- If there is no match, we create and share a social media post to gather interest

- We respond to enquiries and send out adoption application forms

- Completed forms are reviewed and in-person home checks are arranged

- Once the best-fit adopter is chosen, we arrange transport from your home to theirs

- The dog begins a two-week foster trial with ongoing support from our team

This takes time. It often takes weeks and sometimes longer. Everything is done by volunteers who are fitting this work in around their own lives.

Our involvement does not end after rehoming. We follow up with all our adopters at two weeks, one month, three months, and six months. We also stay in touch for years and may carry out random spot checks. This is what proper rescue support looks like.

When someone wastes our time, it affects more than just us. It takes attention away from other dogs we could be helping. It lets down the volunteers, the fosterers, and the adopters who were ready to welcome a dog into their home. It is also emotionally draining for those of us who care so deeply about getting it right for every dog.

If you are genuinely ready and committed to working with us to rehome your dog, we will do everything we can to help. If you are unsure, please take time to think it through before contacting us.

Thank you for understanding and respecting the work we do

🐾 Important Update on Adoption Applications 🐾

EDIT: Thank you all for your supportive comments. After careful consideration, we’ve decided to increase the application deposit to £25, as we agree that £15 may not be a sufficient deterrent for those who are not fully committed. This change will help ensure that our time and resources are dedicated to those who are serious about providing a loving home to a rescue dog. We appreciate your understanding and continued support in helping us find the best possible matches for our dogs.

To reduce last-minute cancellations as mentioned in a previous post, we are implementing a required adoption application deposit of £25. So far this month, 23 applications have been cancelled, often after volunteers had already scheduled or even arrived for home visits — only to be ignored at the door.

✅ It will be deducted from the final adoption fee
❌ It is non-refundable if the adopter withdraws after the process has begun

This deposit helps cover fuel costs and the time spent on home checks and applications, ensuring:
🐶 Respect for Volunteers – Their time and effort are valued.
🐶 Serious Commitment – Applicants are fully prepared.
🐶 Helping More Dogs – Reducing delays in rehoming.

We understand circumstances change, but please only apply if you’re fully committed. Thank you for your support! ❤️

🐾 A Heartfelt Request to Our Community 🐾

We’re writing this because, just in the past week, we’ve had three separate cases where people pulled out of surrendering their dogs after we’d put in significant time and effort finding those dogs loving homes. Although we are happy those dogs are able to stay with people who love them, our time and effort is being disregarded.

What many people don’t realise is that we are a COMPLETELY voluntary organisation. No one in our team receives any payment for the work we do. We all have full-time jobs, families and dedicate our free time—early mornings, late nights, and weekends—purely because we love dogs and want to help them find the care they deserve.

In the surrender cases, the individuals stressed that their situation was urgent, which led us to dedicate extra time to move things quickly. Despite our efforts, the plans were cancelled days before. This is not only frustrating but also stressful, as we work hard to prioritise dogs in need.

Another issue we are facing at the moment is people pulling out of adoptions at the last minute, even after we’ve completed all the necessary steps, leaving dogs without homes and preventing us from helping others.

Behind the Adoption Process:

- We Review Applications to ensure the adopter is a good fit.
- We Arrange Home Checks to confirm the home is safe for the dog.
- We Organize Meetings and Transport, often requiring hours and even days of coordination.

When people change their minds after all this effort, it wastes our time and energy, leaves dogs without homes, and hinders our ability to help others who are genuinely ready to adopt or surrender responsibly.

How You Can Help:

- Be Sure Before Contacting Us: Please think carefully and be 100% sure of your decision before reaching out to adopt or surrender.
- Respect the Process: Each step takes time and effort to ensure the best outcomes for the dogs.

We want to help as many dogs as possible, but we need your understanding and cooperation to do that. Thank you for respecting our time and supporting our efforts.

With gratitude,
The SDRR Team
