Adopt Ariel!

Ariel is a sweet and affectionate female 5 year old dog for adoption, who is looking for her loving active family.

Ariel is an active youngster who loves her walks in the countryside and loves to play and bounce around – she adores being around people, Ariel is very gentle so can suit living with dog savvy kids and another dog if introductions go well. She needs a home in a peaceful setting away from busy towns or cities with access to a garden and would enjoy company for most of the day. Ariel settles nicely and travels well in the car, and loves to go out for walks – she’s a brisk walker so will definitely help her Guardian get their steps in!  She is very affectionate and loves to cuddle with people she knows, yet she is still nervous of new people and situations, so will need a few visits to get to know her new family.

Ariel still needs some work with her recall as when off lead she gets so focused on what she is doing, she becomes ‘deaf’ to being called, yet when she does finally hear us, she becomes super excited and apologetic as if saying ‘ohh, were you calling me?!’  so off-lead training is and will be a must for her, as although people oriented, she is easily distracted.  She loves to play with other dogs, often inviting play with a bow and cheeky bouncing.

In summary, Ariel is a really delightful, good all round dog, who, with just a little bit of training, will absolutely blossom with a new loving family.

Background
All of our dogs have lived their whole lives in family groups in an open space, kennel free environment and it is therefore a shock for them to leave all that they know. For this reason, we require Ariel’s new family to either have an existing resident dog or work from home so she has company through out the day.

Enquire About Ariel
Adopting a dog is a life-changing decision for both the dog and their new family – our experienced volunteers are on hand to support and advise, every step of the way. If you think you’ve seen your perfect soul mate, please apply via the Enquire Now button below to begin the adoption process.

Dog Rescue Adoption Donation of £300 applies (concessions considered).

Holistic Rawfeeding Rescue
We are a holistic rawfeeding rescue, so as with all our rescue dogs and puppies for adoption, Ariel is being fed a natural raw diet and is currently being fed Paleo Ridge for improved health and longevity.

As a rawfeeding rescue, we ask that this diet is continued in her new home as she loves it so much! We provide full advice and support as standard for anyone who is new to rawfeeding dogs or holistic priniciples.

Homecheck by your chosen dog applies to see if she likes her new home!  Our Dog Adoption process involves several visits to get to know your dog, and for your dog to get to know you, so that the rehoming is not a shock away from all that she knows and is simply a natural transition to her new family.  We find that this helps our rescue dogs to settle into their new home with less stress and anxiety and makes for much more successful adoptions.

For this reason, we only rehome within travelling distance of our base in West Wales at the moment. Full lifetime rescue backup and adoption contract applies, so if for any reason our dog is not suitable or circumstances change, we require the dog to be returned to us.

** We are just a very small team here in the UK, so we currently prioritize adopters within travelling distance of our base in West Wales, due to the practicalities of journey times for post-adoption back-up and support from our sanctuary. We apologize if this leads to disappointment, however we have found through experience that more local dog adoptions do not overstretch our limited resources. Thank you for your understanding!
