Right now, 16 dogs at Dogs Trust East Midlands are waiting for something simple but life-changing — a loving home in Derbyshire.
At Dogs Trust Loughborough, you’ll meet every kind of dog — from bouncy young pups bursting with energy to calm, older companions who just want a quiet place to rest.
Some will love long walks through Derbyshire’s parks, while others will be happiest in peaceful homes with patient owners.
The team makes sure every dog gets the best start possible — from health checks and behaviour support to individual care and attention. But nothing compares to the warmth of a real home.
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.
See the loveable dogs looking for their forever homes in Derbyshire here:

1. Jago
Jago is looking for a home where he will be the only pet and where there aren’t any children under the age of 12 years old. He can be left alone for 3-4 hours with the potential for that to be built up once settled in and would love a garden but it isn’t essential. | Dogs Trust

2. How sweet is Holly?!
Breed: Mastiff Cross. Reference ID: 1242017. Age: 2 - 5 years Sex: Female. Location: Loughborough. Holly needs a home with no other pets or children. Size: Large. Holly is house trained and has the potential to be left 3-4 hours once settled in her new home, although she would also make an excellent companion if you were working from home. Holly can be a little worried meeting new people but it doesn't take long to build a relationship with her. Once Holly has a relationship with you she is a very tactile dog. Holly loves a good game of fetch and her all time favourite game is peek-a-boo with her handlers. | Dogs Trust

3. Betsie the Pug
Betsie is searching for loving, patient adopters who will help her readjust to home life. She needs to be the only pet in her new home but could live with older children aged 15+. Betsie can live in any area & can hopefully be left for a few hours. | Dogs Trust

4. Lad
Lad is searching for his forever family who will shower him with all the love he deserves! He needs to be the only poet in the home but could live with children aged 8+ & can be left for a full working day (with breaks) once settled in. Lad would prefer a quieter home away from loud, scary noises & would benefit from quieter walks too. He travels very well in the car though so these could be a car ride away! | Dogs Trust
