Adopt a dog in Sheffield
We are so happy you are looking to adopt a dog in Sheffield. Nothing gives us more joy than seeing our dogs leave our shelter and travel to their forever homes, even if that is very far away and we never see them again. International adoptions are our lifeline, and we appreciate everyone who becomes part of our story, one happy ending at a time.
Why is your help so important? Although we do a lot for these dogs, people like you, the ones deciding to adopt a dog in Sheffield, bring things to completion. The effort we have put in these past 16 years is enormous: from building two shelters by ourselves, only from donations, with no government support (on the contrary, with a lot of legislative, bureaucratic, logistic, and political obstacles), to placing thousands of dogs in their forever homes and being the permanent shelter for those too broken ever to get adopted; we did everything we could to help these dogs.
Yet, you are the real MVP. And we mean that! Because coming in to adopt a dog in Sheffield is no minor thing but a lifetime commitment to another soul. Signing on to become a dog’s forever home and family means until the end of that animal’s life. So, does it still feel like we are doing most of the good deeds now?
We need you to complete our mission and provide for one dog what we cannot, which is the one thing that matters most to them: be their loving family. We love them dearly, treat them with lots of care, go on walks, and help them recover from whatever traumatic event may have broken their souls. But nothing ever compares with the bond a dog has with its human. We rely on you all for this. Every dog in their forever home, surrounded by a loving family, is cared for and appreciated. See now just how important it is to us that you decided to adopt a dog in Sheffield.
Therefore, everything we do, from rescuing the dog off the streets, taking him to the vet for a check-up, giving the poor animal the medical care and attention he never received, putting him on a healthy diet, providing a safe and caring environment where he would feel comfortable enough to heal from past trauma, is all meant to help him get rehabilitated so you can find in him a good companion, worthy to take home.
Will there still be dogs in our shelter? Unfortunately, yes. Some of them can only make it from the street to our care and manage to adapt with great difficulty to being here. They are so scared and fearful that traveling to a new place with new people would be too much. So, as long as they feel comfortable in our care, they can remain with us permanently, as it is a better option to be alone in the streets.
While you were still considering whether to adopt a dog in Sheffield, we have already rescued 2 more dogs and started caring for them. Therefore, we may save them, but you give them a purpose, which is why we do it.
