Story
Meet Bandit, a very special boy looking for the right home.Five years ago, we rescued two brothers and kept them together because we couldn’t bear to separate them. Now, with heavy hearts, we’re looking for the right home for one of them because he struggles in a multi-dog household.He is incredibly sweet with people—gentle, loving, shy at first, and happiest close to his humans.He was born blind in one eye and has a crooked front leg, but these have never stopped him. Last year, after a bad jump, he suffered a spinal disc injury. With veterinary care and determination, he has made remarkable progress and can now walk independently, though one back leg still lags slightly.He needs a home without other dogs. He deserves someone who sees beyond his imperfections and gives this loving boy the chance he deserves. We are committed to finding the right home — not just any home.If you think you may be that person, please reach out.

Story
Hi, my name is Jesse. It is with a heavy heart that I put my sweet beloved friend up for adoption, but it is becoming increasingly difficult to take care of Honey with my current schedule and while I have my young daughter and another on the way. Honey is trained but gets overly excited so tends to forget some of the training at times and needs a little patience. Honey needs a big outdoor area and an experienced dog owner to give her what she needs. Other than all of that, she is a big goofball who loves to play. She is a dope but also very smart in ways I can not even describe. She is sure to brighten the lives of whoever she touches.

Story
He is a wonderful Great Goldendoodle with a fun, loving personality and great energy. He absolutely loves to play fetch, enjoys all kinds of toys, and is happiest when he’s outside taking walks or running at the beach. He is house-trained, kennel-trained, and overall a really great dog. He thrives on attention and companionship, and while he has so much love to give, he would do best with someone who has a little more time to spend with him and give him the attention and activity he deserves.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Daphne – The Sweetest Hound with a Heart of Gold! Breed: Hound (Beagle mix) Age: about 3 years old If you’re looking for a gentle, affectionate companion who’ll bring warmth to your home and joy to your days, Daphne is your girl! This lovely 3-year-old hound has a calm, loving nature and a soft spot for belly rubs — in fact, she’ll politely wait for one before she leaves her kennel each morning. Daphne is house-broken, crate trained, and even uses the doggy door like a pro. She’s obedient, knows her basic commands (“sit,” “come,” “walk,” “outside”), and is learning to “shake paw.” She’s sensitive and eager to please — just a gentle “no” is enough to guide her. This sweet hound loves her daily walks and will head to the door when it’s time to explore. Like most beagles, she enjoys sniffing every new scent and may give a little tug when something interesting catches her nose. When the day winds down, you’ll often find Daphne kenneling herself for bedtime — she keeps her own schedule! She loves to curl up in a chair next to you or right in your lap, soaking up love and attention. Personality highlights: Calm, quiet, and affectionate Food-motivated and gentle with treats Sociable with dogs (especially once she warms up), ignores cats, and adores kids Occasionally gives a short, sweet howl when she misses her human Loves being near you and will “call” if she can’t find you Fun facts: She’s polite at mealtime (no begging!) Enjoys walks and lounging equally Has the softest, most soulful eyes Daphne would thrive in a home where she has companionship—someone who will appreciate her mellow, loving spirit and give her the cuddles she craves. If your heart (and lap!) have room for one gentle hound, Daphne is ready to fill your life with loyalty, comfort, and love.   Adoption Fee: $250.00 **Included:** - Spayed - Up to date on all vaccines - Microchipped - Heartworm treated Adoption Requirements: Home visits required and non-negotiable Adoptable through: The London SanctuaryVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.June 4, 2026, 9:35 pm
