About Nick
Little Nick is gentle and adoring soul who can be hidden under a worried exterior. He needs time to learn he is safe with you but once you have given him that grace, he blooms into a cheeky little snuggle buddy. He is eager to play whether it is with toys or other dogs. You can often catch him playing with toys by himself too! Nick didnt have the best start as a young pup, but we know he deserves that chance now and the right family is out there for him. The world has a lot of scary things for Nick so his biggest need is a home that will give him patience and care. Nick will need an adult only home and could potentially live with another dog who can help him feel more confident. To give Nick the best starting point, a home with few visitors and in a quiet area will really set him up for success. Nick will provide his family with endless love and huge gratification once you see his training take effect in the home.

Show detailsNow you've decided that you're ready to welcome a new furry friend in your life, it's time to meet the dogs available for adoption.
You can search for a dog based on your location and lifestyle. We have dogs available for adoption across the whole of Ireland. While some dogs are based at our rehoming centre in Dublin, many of our dogs live all over Ireland with foster carers or their current owners until they can find their forever homes. The best way to find out how you can meet them is to fill out an application.
If you are hoping to adopt a puppy, we're happy to discuss this as part of the application process. Please bear in mind that we don’t usually add their rehoming profiles to our website as puppies grow and change in appearance so quickly.

Many of the dogs in our care may have had a difficult start in life, or have specific medical or behavioural needs, and need a quieter household or one with no other pets. We try to match each dog with a family where we think they will have the best chance of success.
