Sheldon is a very affectionate and handsome pup who is on the lookout for a forever home. He has shown great progress in the centre, learning new tricks and training every day. He is a playful pup who loves his toys and treats! Sheldon came to Dogs Trust as part of a litter of super clever and energetic pups that are a mix of active breeds. All of these pups love to learn and work their brains, picking up training with ease and enjoying solving new challenges. They all love food, so this makes their training a breeze and joy for their future families. Being young pups, they are still using their mouths to explore the world so will need some help in learning what they can and cannot chew on. They will be large dogs once fully grown and would be ideal match for home with older teens or adults who have an active lifestyle and a keen interest in training.

Now 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.

Please bear in mind, if you are looking for a very specific breed, size or temperament, or have a very busy household, it may take longer for us to find your perfect match.

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.
