Right now, 16 dogs at Dogs Trust East Midlands are waiting for something simple but life-changing — a loving home in Derbyshire.
Each one has their own story, but they all share the same hope: to find care, stability, and someone they can finally trust.
Rehoming is by appointment to make sure every match is right. You can meet the dogs waiting for adoption and start your journey on the Dogs Trust Loughborough website.
Because every dog deserves more than shelter — they deserve a future.

10. Ethel
Ethel the Greyhound arrived at Dogs Trust as an ex-racer, so adjusting to life at home will be new for her. She is looking for a family willing to take the time to help her settle into her new environment.

11. Bucky
Bucky is a confident, characterful American Akita seeking a home with adults who have experience with larger breeds. He’ll need to be the only animal in the household, though he could enjoy calm dog-walking buddies once settled. He can be shy with new faces, but he becomes incredibly affectionate once he trusts you. He travels well, is house trained, and he’s a vocal lad who is sure to keep you entertained! He may be the perfect match if you’re missing a Bucky-shaped companion. To find out more on Bucky visit: https://www.dogstrust.org.uk/rehoming/dogs/american-akita/3449818 Photo: Dogs Trust
12. Kira - Bull Terrier
