Crumble Have you got room on your couch for this old soldier? Crumble is a gentleman of more mature years, who seems to have had a tough old life up to now. He has an injury to his left eyelid which we will have repaired before he goes to his new home. Crumble is small-sized and very portable. We'd love to see him become a constant companion for some special person. His needs are simple - a warm bed, good food, a kind word and a short stroll around the block will be enough to satisfy Crumble! To find out more about him, please phone Ann on 087 2744896.

Previous to coming here my basic training had been sadly lacking although lead walking has now been started . I am young enough and intelligent enough to pick up all other aspects of training very quickly and a new adopter will need to be able to set aside time to help me with this . I will require spacious and secure garden / yard / radio fence area to ensure my safety at all times as well as 2 daily walks of 30 minutes to expend my energy levels . I am flea`d , wormed , vaccinated , microchipped , soon to be neutered and come inclusive with a years dog license and collar name tag for a requested adoption donation of euro 150 . I come free , the donation is to help towards my medical and health costs . By adopting me you are saving the life of an innocent dog that would otherwise have been humanely destroyed in the pound as well as gaining a marvellous new family member . Although not ready to leave here for approx another 2 weeks I can be viewed / pre booked at any time .

He was found with no collar wandering around a church car park on his own, had been there for a few days. Not sure if he has been neutered. His tail has been cut. He is small/medium dog. He is tan all over with black strands, white chest & white sock on the front right foot. Very friendly and loves being around people. He is thought to be approx 1 year old. He is already up on the ISPCA website in the lost and found section, if no one can take him, they will take him in approx 5-6 weeks as they are already full with dogs looking for homes at the moment. He is very lively & energetic so would need someone who can give him plenty of exercise. Very friendly who loves being around people. He is suitable for a young family and would be fine with children but may need some training. He already knows how to sit.

Murph Murph was found as a stray in the Rosnaree area, Co. Meath in early February 2008. He was dirty and tired and hungry. He had obviously been on the loose for a while. Poor Murph was happy to be taken in by a member of the public and given some food and a warm, safe place to sleep. Although he didn't ask for it, he also got a bath a few days later as well! Murph was not wearing a collar and is not microchipped. As no owners have come forward for him, Murph is now looking for a new home asap. Murph would seem to be a Kerry Blue cross. His coat is more wire-haired than curly and he has some white on his chest, so perhaps a bit of Collie in there somewhere too. He is only about 6 mths old but his time on the street has made him look older. One thing is definite - Murph does NOT like cats! No way, no how. So a cat-free home please. Murph is now fully vaccinated and neutered. After a rough start in life, he is looking for the life that every dog deserves - a home with good food, a warm bed, lots of exercise and play and most of all, an owner who loves him and treats him right. If you can offer this to Murph, please email us for our rehoming questionnaire. CONTACT:Drogheda Animal Rescue (041 9832418) email

3 little Puppies These 3 little Puppies were abandoned on a quiet road out of Cashel and were found by very kind children who brought them home to their mom who then contacted us. They are 6-7 weeks old and too young to be away from their Mother. The are Collie/Terrier crosses. They will be ready for homing after 10th May and will have had their 1st Vaccination and will be fully wormed and Defleaed and Microchipped. Hopefully the owners will have the sense to Neuter the Mother so they will not have to dump puppies ever again as it is very cruel. CONTACT:Cottage Rescue, Co Tipperary (Hannah: 087 970 1919) email

Sandy My name is Sandy . I am a small to medium wire hair terrier mix girl approx 8 months old . I am very pretty and more or less grown in height , I stand approx 14 inches to my shoulder and am not a demanding dog . I think probably my previous young life had not been great as I am timid of meeting new people and only trust humans when I really get to know them – when this happens I am an absolute dote and will probably never get off your lap ! Due to my initial reticent nature I would prefer to be a house living pet in a home without children under the age of 12 years . Although lead training has been iniated here , this aspect of training as well as all basic training will need to be furthered by a new owner . I will require spacious and secure garden / yard / radio fence area to ensure my safety at all times as well as 2 daily walks of 20 minutes . I am flea`d , wormed , vaccinated , microchipped , soon to be spayed and come inclusive with a years dog license and collar name tag for a requested adoption donation of euro 150 . I come free , the donation is to help towards my medical and health costs .

Buster Meet Buster. Buster was found wandering around the streets of Cork. We estimate he is under one year old. He is a very independant little fellow. He gets on great with other dogs but also likes his time to himself! He is a bit bouncy when around kids as he gets so excited, so a home with children over 5 would be best. He is getting better on the lead every day and loves his walks. Buster will need an secure, enclosed garden and a warm bed to sleep inside at night. For more information please contact Vicky of Dog Action Welfare Group or visit our website on www.dogactionwelfaregroup.ie.

Libby 10 months old, female. Libby was surrendered into Ashton. She was petrified and just cowered at the back of her crate. She was filthy dirty and sat shivering afraid to even look at anyone. She came home with me and is getting on brilliantly.It took four washes ( and then another one) to get her looking half decent. It was like she had been kept in a coal shed. Poor girl probably never seen the indoors. She is an excellent little girl. She is very affectionate and wants to be with you all the time. For this reason, she needs to go to a home where there is someone at home for most of the day. She will make an excellent companion for anyone. She adores people and loves children. She isnt too active and wont need tons of excerise. Also she loves to give kisses, whether it be your face, hands clothes and gives a good feet wash! She is 80% - 90% housetrained but can forget at times to ask to go out. Excellent off lead from day one, its like shes glued to me. But Im thinking she was left outside for most of her life cos whens shes in the garden she will always try to get back in as quickly as possible. I think shes afraid that I will leave her or that she wont get back in! Libby has been spayed, wormed and has had her first vaccination. Brilliant girl who would suit a quieter home environment but loves children. CONTACT:Dogs In Distress (086 3304333) email
