We have many permanent residents ranging from dogs, cats, small furries, reptiles and farm animals.
07763646257 this phone operates 10am - 5pm Wanderers Haven Animal Sanctuary was founded in 1961 by Mrs Geraldine Wagstaff in her family home in Ramsgate, Kent. The Sanctuary has been at its current location in Cranham, Essex since July 1976. We have rescued all sorts of animals ranging from horses,

ponies, goats, sheep, ducks, geese, chickens, cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, other small animals, birds etc. We have a non destruction order so any animals that come into our care stay with us until they are rehomed. Certain animals which cannot be rehomed due to past problems and issues live at the sanctuary. All dogs and cats rehomed are neutered before adoption, if animals aren't old enough, a neutering agreement will be signed by new owners. All our animals are rehomed on a Life Time Adoption. This means that for whatever reason new owners can no longer care for the animal, they must be returned to the sanctuary. No matter how long the animal has been rehomed for. Animals that are microchipped stay in the Sanctuary's name, with new owners added. If the animal is lost and scanned the Sanctuary and new owner are notified. We are a non profit organisation and recieve no government funding. Your donations of money, newspapers, bedding and items to sell at boot sales are only what keep us going. This money will then be put on our account and help us out a great deal.

Cane is still looking for his new home 🐾🐾🐾

Cane is still looking for his new home 🐾🐾🐾

Cane is looking for a new home.
He is approximately 7years old and a Shepherd cross.
Cane is a gentle giant and is very loving and loyal. He can be quite timid of new people and situations but as long as you're there for him showing him its OK, he begins to relax.
Cane is strong on lead in particular when he is anxious and unsure of his surroundings.
Once he's comfortable around you and where he is he walks well on lead.
He loves being out and about and loves his toys.
Cane is looking for a new home with no cats. Cane can live with older teenagers but not young children.
Cane could live with a medium to large breed female that is confident and not too lively. He would also be quite happy as the only dog.

We have no history on Cane so do not know how he would behave if left at home alone. This is something he would have to gradually get used to if this was needed. Because of this we would let him be adopted to where someone in the home will be able to work with Cane so he can eventually be left for short periods (if this needed work).
A retired couple would be ideal providing they are able to manage his size and strength.
Shepherd or similar breed experience is a must.
Please email
[email protected] or call 07763646257 if you feel you could offer Cane a new home 🏑 🐾
