Buster

Buster is a handsome, happy-go-lucky Lab cross. Once found as a stray, he has blossomed into an affectionate, loyal companion.

A recent obedience graduate, Buster has excellent recall and knows his cues. Confident, well-socialised, and adventurous. Buster would make the perfect sidekick for someone seeking a fun, loyal best friend.

Benbo

Benbo arrived at MoonAcre in March 2023 after being surrendered in very poor condition. He was heartbreakingly only 3 years old.

Benbo is blind — one eye has been removed and the other has limited vision but it doesn’t slow him down. What he lacks in sight, he makes up for in spirit. He’s confident, playful, and full of character, loving tug games, cheeky slipper steals, and snuggling under blankets.

Liam

Liam is our wonderful tripawd boy with a gentle nature, a resilient spirit and so much love to give.

Liam arrived at MoonAcre in 2023 as a tiny puppy after being born with a leg malformation. His hind leg needed to be amputated, but you would never know it from watching him go about his life. Liam doesn’t let having three legs slow him down.

Watching him run, play or simply bask in the sunshine is a wonderful reminder of just how adaptable and joyful dogs can be.

At MoonAcre, Liam has earned the title of “chill master.” He loves the simple things in life:

Snoozing in the sunshine.
Gentle strolls.
Loving cuddles.

Liam is wonderfully affectionate and enjoys canine company. He has a gentle, loyal nature and would make a lovely companion for someone looking for a dog who is happy to enjoy life’s quieter moments as well as getting out and about.

After spending almost his entire life at the sanctuary, we don’t want Liam to spend the rest of it here. He has grown up surrounded by love, but he deserves to discover the comfort and security of a home of his own – his own sofa, his own routine and a family who sees him as their special boy.

♂ Male
📅 Date of Birth: 12/11/2022
✅ Neutered
✅ Fully vaccinated
✅ Blood-screened

At MoonAcre, our dogs are family. We offer rescue backup for life, so no matter where our dogs are in the world, they will always have our support and a safety net behind them.

Liam has waited long enough.

Could you be the family who gives this very special three-legged boy the home he’s been waiting for?

Rusty and Luna Have Found Their Forever Homes!

We’re delighted to share some wonderful news from Moonacre Sanctuary — Rusty and Luna have each found their forever homes!

They will be leaving at the beginning of March to travel to England, where their new chapters will begin. While it’s always emotional saying goodbye, this is exactly what Moonacre Sanctuary is here for – giving animals the time, care, and second chances they need before finding the right match for their future.

We are so proud of how far they’ve both come, and so grateful to our supporters who make these happy endings possible.

Good luck, Rusty and Luna – your new chapters begin now!

Rusty’s Rescue and Recovery

On the 18th of January, after returning from a dog walk, we found a puppy collapsed against our gate. We expected him to run away but instead, he ran straight into our arms. There was no tail wag, no excitement -only complete exhaustion.

Rusty was freezing, emaciated, and filthy. His ribs were clearly visible, and his gums were white – clear signs of prolonged neglect and extreme weakness. We brought him inside immediately, fed and hydrated him, gently bathed him, administered injectable vitamins, and settled him safely into a crate. He fell asleep almost instantly.

We named him Rusty, after the beautiful colour of his coat. From that moment on, a life of suffering, loneliness, and neglect would never again be his reality.

Rusty has since been examined by our vet. We’re relieved to share that he has no microchip and, thankfully, no underlying illness. His blood work is clear—he is simply very underweight and in need of time, nourishment, and rest.

Despite everything he has endured, Rusty appears to be lead-trained, is friendly with other dogs, and has shown himself to be an incredibly sweet, gentle soul.

For now, Rusty’s world revolves around rest, good food, and steady weight gain. He is safe, warm, and exactly where he needs to be.

Rusty is ready and searching for his forever home – a loving family who will give him the life he so deeply deserves. If you think you could be that special family for Rusty, please get in touch with us.
