Bobby

Bobby is a lovely young man who has been patiently waiting for the chance to find a family of his own.

Bobby has a congenital hip condition, meaning he was born with an issue affecting his hips. While this is part of his story, it doesn’t take away from his worth or his ability to enjoy life.

Life at a busy sanctuary is very different from having a home and family of your own. We would love to see Bobby have the opportunity to experience the comfort, security and individual attention that comes with being someone’s special dog.

Finding the right home for Bobby will mean taking his individual needs into consideration and making sure he has the appropriate veterinary care and support. We are happy to discuss his condition and any ongoing requirements with potential adopters.

What Bobby needs most is someone who will look beyond the things that make him different and recognise the loving companion he could be.

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

Bobby has spent enough time waiting for someone to see him.

Could you be the person who gives Bobby the chance to finally know what it feels like to have a home of his own?

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.
