Dog rescue sanctuary will take in stray/abandaned/ abused dogs, or those of which owners can no longer look after them, from the UK and abroad. I loved my job.
This dream started long ago. I have been a travel agent for 30 years, 12 of which specialising in cruises. I love my job. Yes, I am still working as a travel agent; Cruise Hub, Cruise Holidays, and I will continue to do so part time. I am very lucky I am able to do this as a cruise franchisee working from home, or anywhere. In-between these years, I have often thought about opening a dog boarding
business. During COVID, as with a lot of people, I decided to jump ship (excuse the pun) and do something to help people. The cruise and travel industry as a whole obviously dried up, so I became a support worker for vulnerable people in their homes. I love this job. I never thought it would suit me, but I love meeting amazing people with different degrees of dependancy. Back to the dog boarding, following the last lockdown, I started researching how to do this, and was in touch with the council regarding licensing, as well as looking for adequate insurance. This all diversified to being a dog rescue sanctuary really very quickly. I have always had dogs in the house, looking after friends and families while they are away on holidays. Also, us, as a family have had the pleasure of owning two dogs; Indiana, a black lab/shepherd from puppy, who sadly passed away in May 2020 aged 12 years, and now we have Joshi, a 2 year old shepherd mix rescue from Hungary. We adopted him from Hungary Hearts dog rescue charity. This has intensified my need to help other dogs who are not yet as lucky as Joshi. We are so lucky to have him and I am looking to give other families that same pleasure when they adopt their new family member. This all moved quickly, so I have started initially in my home in Wokingham, Berkshire, as I have a decent back garden, which opens up to meadows in the area - great for walking. I am already fostering a beautiful Husky called Shadow, and this means, that I am unable to take many more until I find some land/disused warehouse/garden centre/stables/anywhere I can set up and take lots more dogs, and they can run free until they find love in their new forever homes. This is my dream, and hopefully, and most importantly, every poor abandoned dogs dream too.
Evening all,
I have been asked to help.
Unfortunately I can no longer foster dogs as I have a grandchild who comes round regularly, so for obvious reasons, am not able to have strange dogs in the house.
I have someone who, for personal reasons, has to give up his beloved dog. Bella is a 4 year old chocolate patterdale terrier. She is good with kids, but not cats, and would need to be introduced to other dogs slowly.
Can anyone help by adopting this lovely girl?
Unfortunately, I am unable to help, but PLEASE, if you or anyone you know is looking to buy a dog, please consider adopting first, as there are so many who are homeless right now 😢 Please share this link to Hungary Hearts page: https://www.facebook.com/hungaryhearts
Unfortunately I can’t help, but this poor boy has been let down twice now, so if you’re looking for a dog to join your family, please consider him 🥰
I'm going to be a grandma! 🥳🤩🥰
This is great news!
But, unfortunately, I am unable to continue with my dog rescue sanctuary :(
This is because I am unable to bring unknown dogs into the house; Dogs who may have never been in a home, or around small children.
Sadly, I was unable to find any reasonable premises or piece of land to set up a dog rescue sanctuary, but I am still looking, as I still would very much love to continue this plight with so many dogs being abandoned.
I am continuing to work with Hungary Hearts dog rescue by sharing their posts and helping to get their dogs adopted. Please, please share these posts, and consider adopting before buying from a breeder.
In the meantime, I am happy to be starting a new business venture; dog sitting, dog walking & dog day care. Please feel free to visit my new page if you, or anyone you know of, would be interested in using my services -
Your dog & me
Thank you so much for all your support.

*UPDATE: Adopted 🥰*
Hello everyone,
It's been a while! Due to family circumstances, I have not been rescuing since new year, but am hoping to start up again soon 🙂
Now, this beautiful boy is up for adoption, looking for his forever home 🥰
He is a sweet, loving boy, but does come with some dominance issues. Therefore, we can not adopt him to just anyone who would like a dog.
Name: Shadow
Age: 5 years
S*x: Male
Breed: Husky
Neutered: Yes
Origin: England
He needs:
1) Good, strong leadership where rules are made and not let to slip, ie; No going on human bed, no going on human sofa unless invited, and no being fed from human dinner table.
2) Previous dog ownership is a must.
3) No small children and prefer no other animals, especially cats
4) Ongoing training to keep him stimulated and to keep him down the rungs of the dominance ladder.
5) Two good walks per day. He loves to run in open fields, but does tend to want to say 'hello' to other dogs. His recall is touch and go, and will need further training on this.
6) Lots of treats 🙂
7) Most important; Lots of love ❤️
If you are genuinely interested and are able to commit to the above, then please contact us.
While our boy Joshi literally wolves his dinner down in 0.5 nano seconds, our Shadow does this: 😂
Keep an eye out for more special dogs arriving at my sanctuary soon!
Are you, or someone you know, struggling with a dog?
Maybe you, or that someone, bought a dog but, for whatever reason, can no longer look after it.
This is where I come in.
No judgement.
I foster dogs here until I can find their next forever home.
Here are 3 I have fostered and re-homed since December:

Hi everyone,
We are looking for a person/family to adopt this lovely boy quite urgently.
He is so sweet and loving, and very friendly, but unfortunately, our highly strung husky took an instant dislike to him (like he does with most dogs) and Rupert (Buddy) is not taking any of it. They growl at eachother when they are in close proximity, which then leads to a full on fight.
Rupert (Buddy) is very loving towards my other dog who is very laid back, which is how I know my husky started the dispute haha
Rupert (Buddy) is very good around people, and other dogs if they are calm.
Our husky also tried it on with Dexter who we had fostered, but Dexter kept his distance and didn't retaliate, which caused the husky to back down and learn to tolerate him.
If you are able to adopt this beautiful boy, please check out my website (link in comments) for all his information.
Aww Rupert (Buddy) is really settling in 🥰 He’s such a sweet boy and ready for adoption 😊
Rupert (we are calling him Buddy) is now safe in my sanctuary.
If you would like to take this beautiful boy your forever dog, please see my website for details (link in comments). We will contact you and arrange a home inspection and interview.

Can you take him in and love him during his retirement years? (He is only 9, so still has a lot of life left in him 😍)
Details are on my website. Link in comments below.
Shadow thinks he’s a lap dog 😂
A very merry Christmas from my human family and my dog family 🥰

When you adopt a dog from Hungary Hearts and me, you may well be literally saving their lives!
They will have been rescued from the streets, or chained up somewhere cold & wet, or from a killing station where they wait to be put down.
These dogs need you 🥰

About me: I am a very loving young boy who is looking for a loving forever home. I was rescued from a horrible killing station in Hungary, but am now safe in Hngary Hearts sanctuary and ready for adoption.
I am a friendly loving boy, a bit shy in the beginning, but with kindness and patient I open up. I love all the attention I can get, and I love playing and running about. I am a very sweet active boy who will be a good addition to a loving family with lots of love to give. I get on well with other dogs too, but a bit aware of them. I just want to stay away from trouble. I really need a loving family to settle down and to be loved for my life time. Can you offer a loving home for me?

Our lazy foster husky 😂
Sorry, it's hard to film while walking 😂 but I have done a short video of Denver (we call him Dexter) while out this morning. He is good on the lead and does not pull at all. He is good with other dogs, but nervous of people, but I am hoping he will improve with time 🥰 If you would like to adopt this beautiful boy, please see my website for all his information. The link is in the comments
I picked up this beautiful boy today; Dexter (was Denver, but Dexter came more easily to us 😂) I will be fostering him short term until he is ready to move onto his forever home. If you or anyone you know would be able to take this boy in for his twilight years, please contact me via my website (address is in the comments below).
What to do on a wet Saturday afternoon? Play with the dogs, of course 🥰 This beautiful foster boy is settling in well 💙
Shadow, our foster boy, is settling well. He loved playing ball in the garden with our visitors today 🥰
