Stanley is a sensitive soul that likes his routine, however he is also a cheeky terrier! He will need to be in an adult only home as the only pet. Stanley is currently receiving extra behavioural training support and has been responding really well to his learning sessions. Raystede said he is a great character but he will be a continued 'project' for any new home. He will require continued management, support and positive learning experiences over the long term within a new home. He will need his own secure garden to explore and play in, especially as he is not always feeling able to go out for walks.Stanley is a sensitive soul that likes his routine, however he is also a cheeky terrier!

The charity’s rehoming centre in Ballymena is looking after all kinds of pooches – and one of them could be just perfect for you.

Here are 15 adorable dogs currently looking for a new and loving home.

Elsie is a bouncy, bundle of fun (and legs!) who is super playful and likes to make people laugh. She loves lounging on a sofa and meeting new people. She has been living with her friend Proki for the last two years, so the pair can be homed together or separately. She can live with another dog if suitably matched, but cannot live with cats or small animals.

Proki is a sweet gentleman who wants nothing more than an easy life with plenty of sofa snoozing and gentle walks in interesting areas. He has been living with Elsie for the past few years so they could be homed as a pair. He could possibly live with older children/teens as he adores all humans! Proki could live with another similar sized companion, and he enjoys meeting dogs out and about of all sizes. He cannot live with cats or small furries.

Toby is a fun and active dog who becomes extremely playful when he has bonded with people. It will take him longer to trust new people, and he will require extra support with reactivity to strangers, but he is capable of building very close bonds and becomes very affectionate with his favourite humans. Toby will never feel comfortable in busy environments and will need a experienced home that knows how to help a nervous dog cope with the wider world. He will need to be only dog, so his owner can focus on his needs and training and cannot live with cats or children.

Raystede says Koda is a wise, gentle soul who just needs someone to give him their all and show him he is safe. He did not have the correct support, behaviourally or emotionally, during a critical time in his development. Therefore, he can be very nervous of new people, lots of activity and loud noises. He also struggles around other dogs and will vocalise this. His breed type requires a high level of input to meet his needs for mental stimulation and activity levels. Once bonded, he is very affectionate and playful but requires support in the home to reduce symptoms of stress such as pacing. Koda will require a quiet home in the countryside as the only pet with a secure, private garden.
