Quieter Homes
Sadly, older dogs and other dogs needing quieter homes often get overlooked in rescue because they don’t have the same appeal as a puppy or younger dog does. However, older and quieter dogs have their own particular advantages, and an abundance of love and companionship to give.
Remember, when you adopt any SRS dog, you will always have access to the support and skills of our Co-ordinators. If you adopt one of our oldies who is on medication or has ongoing health problems, we can provide lifelong support for veterinary bills.
If you have already registered with us to adopt, and see a dog on this page that you would like to know more about, please get in touch on 01382 860618, or contact . If you are not yet registered with us, then please come and find out more by visiting our How to Adopt page.
If you are particularly sympathetic to the welfare of older Springers, whether or not you are in a position to offer one a forever home, then you may wish to find out more about Cara’s Fund, or visit our Friends of SRS page.

Name: Glen
Age: 6
Sex: male
Ref No: 29190129
Good with dogs: yes
Good with cats: no
Good with Children: untried
Breed: English Springer Spaniel

Glen is currently settling in his foster home . He is fine with dogs but not keen on the cats. He does not pull too hard on lead, and is keen to go his walks. He has lost some weight over the past month, and this has made him more active than he was. Glen is quite a cuddly boy, and likes being petted and having his tummy rubbed! Would be quite happy being rehomed as an only dog, but could possibly live with a female companion. As Glen has not been used to living with children we feel he would be best suited to an adult home.

Millie is a happy, energetic, loving and playful young girl with a lovely temperament. She knows some basic commands, has good recall and walks well with a harness. She is responding well to further training. Millie happily greets people and dogs when out walking, however, as she is a little nervous of new situations, objects and noises she will require some socialisation and confidence building. Millie is best suited to an experienced home with no young children.

Ben is an easy going older boy who is well behaved in the house and very seldom barks. He loves going out for walks and prefers an extendable lead. We were told that he has good recall but this is proving to need a little work with all the exciting smells he has found in his foster home. Travels well in the car and would like to travel sitting on the front seat if allowed!!! Good with cats and children, he is a lovely friendly boy who is still active and would love a new family to cuddle up to. Ben will have to be neutered before going to his new home.
