Giving a rescue dog a home can be one of the most rewarding things in the world.
Each week, Dogs Trust East Midlands releases photos of its residents in the hope of people seeing the photos and falling in love with the pooch photos.
From bouncy puppies to serene seniors, the dogs are ready to bound into your life and bring with them bundles of joy, love and bucket-loads of snuggles.
If you’d like to know more but don’t quite know where to start, don’t worry.
Get in touch with East Midlands-based Dogs Trust Loughborough and staff will help match you with the right companion.
They will be on hand to support you through every step.
By adopting, you’re not just gaining a pet, you’re giving a dog the life it deserves.
Here are 10 dogs from the East Midlands-based Dogs Trust – a branch of the UK's largest dog welfare charity – hoping to find a new and loving home right here in Derbyshire.
Here are the dogs from the Midlands at Kenilworth and Loughborough centres.

1. Milo (reference 1211712)
Milo is a sweet seven-year-old Bichon Frisé looking for a calm, adult-only home where he can feel safe and loved. He enjoys walks and quiet garden time, and he’s making great progress with his training. Milo would thrive in a peaceful, non open-plan house and can live with another dog. Milo is a real cutie and just needs someone who can dedicate the time and patience to get to know all about him. | Dogs Trust
2. Mack (reference 3456729)
Meet Mack, a sweet Labrador Retriever with a playful spirit and a love for fetch. He's looking for an adult-only home where he can feel safe and settle in at his own pace. Mack can be shy around new people and busy places, but once he trusts you, he’s a very loyal boy. He would like a secure garden and needs to be the only pet at home but is happy to walk alongside gentle doggy friends. There's nothing Mack enjoys more than activities and playtime so a family who loves a good game of fetch would be perfect. | Dog's Trust
3. Martha (reference 3571862)
Martha is a gentle nine-year-old looking for a peaceful retirement home where she can enjoy life at her own pace. She’d love a calm household with older children and a secure garden to help with her housetraining. Walks are still new to her, but she’d enjoy quiet woodland strolls full of interesting smells. Martha would prefer to be the only pet as she continues to build her confidence and once you meet her, you’ll see why everyone falls in love with this sweet senior. | Dogs Trust
4. Oscar (reference 1269185)
Oscar is a lively and loving young Halden Hound Cross with a big heart and even bigger love for the great outdoors. He is full of energy and would thrive with an active adult household where he can enjoy long walks, scent games, and plenty of cuddles. Oscar is house-trained and travels well, but prefers to be the only pet at home, as he can be a little possessive over food and toys. Could you give Oscar a forever home? | Dogs Trust
