Give a dog a home

Always adopt, never buy

Adopting a rescue dog from Homeless Hounds rather than buying an animal from a pet shop or breeder means that you’re saving the life of an at-risk dog and helping to break the cycle that currently sees so many dogs euthanised on a regular basis.

We will ensure that your rescue dog is
  • Provided with paid-for vet care including vaccinations, desexing, parasite control and microchipping at a Homeless Hound-approved vet
  • Provided with behaviour modification plans and management ideas to ensure your rescue experience is a pleasant one
Ready to adopt? Click the button below and fill in the application.

Note: The below application form will take 5-10 minutes to complete.
