Chandler is a stunning, one year old Portuguese Podengo.
He was left in my garden, with his brother, at only 4 weeks of age - Chandler is now just over 17kg but I think he has a little more growing to do.
Chandler gets on well with people and dogs of all sizes, he's really sweet, playful and loving.
He is amazingly calm for a Podengo, he loves going for walks and gets very vocal when he's excited!
He needs some leash work because he pulls (health issues prevent me from doing this at the moment) but he loves walking, he's well behaved in the dog park too.
Chandler's brother is already in Montreal so it would be wonderful if they could have the chance to meet up again.- he was really depressed when Joey left.
Canadian followers, please share and hopefully the brothers can be reunited.
Farnel is a 4 month old Pinscher mix, he was found in the middle of the road and rescued by a kind young lady before coming to me.
He was terrified of the big dogs when he came to ADR and would scream in fear if they came anywhere near him - something bad happened to this little pup
This afternoon, he's been playing with Chandler who is 17kg so it's safe to say that he has overcome his fear.
Farnel is an energetic, playful pup, he loves to play and snuggle with the other dogs and pups.
He still has some fear of humans though and isn't a lapdog, he'd rather curl up by my feet to sleep even though he knows he can trust me.
If you are interested in adopting Farnel, please send a message.
Chia is a 6 year old mini Podengo mix. She is the sweetest, most gentle, loving little dog who deserves the absolute best of everything.
Let down by local people and authorities, this tiny 4.5kg dog spent days in agonising labour, suffered a ruptured uterus which then resulted in a life threatening infection.
She was finally rescued by tourists after they contacted me.
The vet said if she hadn't been brought in that evening, she would have died!
Now she's looking for a special family to give her all the love she deserves.
Sweet little Chia is currently with a foster dad and loving all the attention and walks on the beach. Her confidence is growing by the day
She gets on well with other dogs and plays well with the other small ADR dogs but she's shy with new people.
Please send a message if you are interested in adopting Chia.

Taz is an 8 year old Pinscher, he still has bursts of energy, he loves to be outside in the sunshine or snuggled inside with the pups or Hope.

Please share to help Taz find his forever home
Annabelle is the most amazingly resilient dog - she is a 9 year old Labrador used for breeding - she had her last litter at 7 years of age at which point she was deemed too old and discarded. The last photo shows the horrendous condition she was in when she was rescued almost two years ago.
She was kept, until this point, in a small concrete space where she sat in her own pee which caused burns and fur loss, she had lost fur due to stress and had also lost the end of her tail (cause unknown)
Despite this appalling neglect, Annabelle has retained the gentle, loving, playful Labrador character
All the ADR pups adore her, all the traumatised dogs are drawn to her because of her gentle confidence.
Annabelle deserves the best life can offer in her final years for all the suffering she endured. She deserves a sofa to sleep on and daily walks, toys, chews, balls to chase and so much love.
Annabelle has no ongoing health issues other than a grain allergy.
If anyone would like to offer this beautiful, sweet Labrador the wonderful home she deserves, please send a message.
Elsa is a 5 month old Spaniel mix.

If you are interested in adopting Elsa, please send a message.
