OUR FEATURED DOG IS NERO
A PLAYFUL PUP BURSTING WITH FUN
Nero
Meet Nero, a stunning young black Retriever cross with a name as strong and striking as he is. His story is one of survival, resilience, and the hope for a brighter future.
With a name that means “black” and embodies strength, a fitting description for this stunning pup with the warmth of a rich cup of coffee. This boy has lived up to that title in more ways than one.
Here's a bit about me...
- Size: Medium-large (medium at present and not sure if he will grow much more)
- Sex: Male
- Age: Just over 18 months (DOB 23.07.23)
- Neutered: Yes
- Vaccinated: Yes
- Microchipped: Yes
His playful nature is starting to shine through again as he waits patiently for his forever home in the UK.
This sweet and playful soul deserves a family who will love him for who he is, and we’re hopeful that the right home is just around the corner.
Could you be the one to give Nero the life he deserves? His journey has been full of twists and turns, but with the right family, the next chapter could be filled with nothing but love and happiness.

NEWS AND EVENTS
BOW IN CRISIS – SHE NEEDS YOUR HELP!
Right now, sweet little Bow (rescued from being put to sleep) is in hospital, fighting through a painful and unexpected health crisis.
Darling Bow has found the most loving home imaginable and has now been welcomed into our family of Forever-Sanctuary-Foster dogs, meaning she will remain safe and cherished for life with her devoted new mum, while we cover the bulk of her vet costs. But first, we need to get her through this crisis.
Tragically, just as Bow was settling in, her existing back problems flared up so severely that she had to be rushed to the vet twice in the middle of the night. On her second emergency visit, the vets had to keep her in, and the costs started spiralling.
🆘URGENT - Please let us know if you have the right level of experience and circumstances to take Toby on, or please help by sharing and tagging rescues. This boy is 9 years old and in danger of being put to sleep after his owner passed away. All the info is in the video, please watch. Thank you 🙏🤞🐾 ... See MoreSee Less

🎉🐾 ADOPTION PUPDATE – ROCKO! 💖🌿
WELCOME HOME DARLING!
Get ready for a big smile… because Rocko is living his absolute BEST life! 🐶✨
This adorable, lively spaniel has settled into his forever home brilliantly and he’s loving every second of it. His amazing and wonderfully loving new pawrents are moorland rangers, so Rocko spends his days out adventuring in the wild - sniffing, exploring and bouncing about like the happiest boy ever!
When the weather turns, he gets to snuggle up in a cosy cabin and enjoy some well-earned snooze time. 💛 He’s met the whole family (and half the moors, we think!) and he adores everyone he meets. He’s even been on water adventures and let’s just say... splashing is definitely his thing! 💦
We honestly couldn’t have dreamed up a more perfect home for Rocko. And between the tail wags, big smiles and muddy pawprints, we can’t help but feel - we don’t know who rescued who. One thing’s for sure: happy, bouncy Rocko is already healing hearts wherever he goes. 💖
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts to everyone who helped make this beautiful, happy ending happen.
Here’s to a lifetime of zoomies, cuddles and muddy paws! 🐾❣️x

🆘🐾 TORI NEEDS YOU – ASSESSMENT VISIT & FUNDRAISING EXTENSION 🐾🆘
We have two big updates about sweet Tori!
1️⃣ Assessment Visit – Monday 13th May
We’re taking the first step toward getting Tori the specialist behavioural help she desperately needs. On Monday, Joy from CBRC will be visiting Tori for her initial assessment, as Tori isn’t able to be handled by anyone but her current carer right now. This visit isn’t her move-in day, but it’s a huge step forward and could be the beginning of a life-changing journey for her.
Tori is currently at her most feral, likely triggered by a recent disruption... a painter being around for a few days. She’s struggling to cope with any changes and is not reacting well to them. Because of this, it’s likely that more than one visit will be needed before she can be safely moved to the specialist kennels.
Tori is frightened and traumatised, reacting fearfully to even small changes in her environment. One day she's gentle and sweet, the next she's overwhelmed by fear at something as simple as a lead. She’s not a “bad dog”, just a girl who’s never had the right support. That’s what we’re trying to give her.
2️⃣ Lottery Extended – Now Draw's Wednesday 14th May at 9PM
We’re extending the fundraiser by 3 more days, because we’re still £500 short of the amount needed to cover the first 3 months of her specialist rehabilitation.
We’re hoping to sell a few more tickets to give Tori the future she deserves.
🎟️ Tickets are just £1 – and every one makes a difference.
The more we raise, the more help for Tori and the bigger the prize for you too!
🙏 Please help us reach the finish line.
Let’s give Tori the chance to heal and a future full of trust, safety and love. 💖

🐾🌻💖 ADOPTION PUPDATE - ARLO 💖🌻🐾
We have a heartwarming adoption pupdate to share! Little Arlo, one of our beloved UK death row poundies, has now found his forever home a little while ago and he's settling in beautifully. 🏡
After already blossoming in the care of his kind and loving foster family, Arlo has gone from a still slightly unsure boy to a happy, cheeky bundle of joy in his forever home! He now has a fantastic new family and a lovely sister, Saffy, who’s been showing him the ropes. Together they’re Little & Large Double Trouble - and just look at those gorgeous scruff-balls go!
His amazing new family has been working hard on his recall and we’re thrilled to say Arlo is now enjoying off-lead freedom! It’s brought him even more joy as he continues to explore the world with so much more confidence and excitement.
Arlo’s been soaking up every bit of his new life: meeting family and friends, socialising with other dogs, going on fun adventures… and of course, lounging like a king when it's time to relax.
We’re beyond grateful to have had the chance to save Arlo’s life and help him start this new chapter. Huge thanks to his loving foster family and everyone of you who supported his journey, and to kind-hearted Joy from CBRC for stepping in with a space at her kennels when we were full to the brim.
A life saved. A future secured. A heart full of love. What’s not to celebrate? 🐶

MEET NELLIE & NORA 🐾💕 These gorgeous sisters are around 7 months old and currently cared for in a special boarding place in Serbia. Nelly (black) and Nora (black & white) are full of charm and puppy mischief - and yes, they are as adorable as they look! 😍
They’ll be looking for a loving home with another friendly dog, or they could be rehomed together. We're still gathering a bit more info, but their profiles will be up in the coming days. Stay tuned! 🙏🥰🙏 ... See MoreSee Less

NALA – YOUNG LURCHER FOR ADOPTION IN CORNWALL/DEVON
Hi there, I’m Nala! 🐾
I’m a young Lurcher girl and I’m searching for my forever home in Cornwall or Devon. Let me tell you a bit about myself, in my own words!
📖 My Story:
Last autumn, I was saved from a scary place called “death row” at a UK pound. I’d been left all alone and didn’t know what it felt like to be truly loved. People guessed I was abandoned by travellers and I never really had anyone to show me how to feel safe or cared for.
But then something amazing happened… Paws2Freedom stepped in just in time and gave me a second chance. Since then, I’ve experienced home life in a kind and understanding foster home, where I started to learn what love feels like.
At first I was a little unsure, because my past made me nervous, but everyone was patient with me and I loved being in a home.
After a few weeks I went to special rehabilitation kennels to help with some of the things I and my foster parents were struggling with. That’s where I met Joy, my wonderful trainer, and we’ve been working together ever since!
I’ve already made so much progress: I'm feeling braver, more playful and learning how to trust people and new dogs too. I even recently did some off-site work in the lane and stayed calm, listened to Joy and took everything in my stride. I was pretty proud of myself - and everyone else was too!
🐶 About Me:
I’m a medium-sized girl with a smaller Lurcher build. I was born on 13th July 2023 and I’m vaccinated and microchipped - so I’m all ready to go! I haven’t been spayed yet - I had my first season in November 2024, but that’s planned for later on somewhen, once I’m feeling more settled and confident. Oh, and yes, I’m house-trained!
Like many Lurchers, I have a strong chase instinct and I’m not keen on small furries, so I’ll need a home without cats or small animals.
🐾 Getting to Know Me:
I’m super affectionate and loving once I feel safe with you. It can take me a little time to trust new people, so slow and gentle introductions help me feel more comfortable. Once I know you’re kind, I’ll shower you with love! ❤️
I absolutely love running and exploring, especially splashing in water and playing games with my humans. I do have a strong chase instinct (hey, I’m a Lurcher after all!), so I need to do my zoomies in safe, secure places.
The world can be a bit scary sometimes, but I’m learning every day how to be brave. I’ve been getting some really special training to help me feel more confident in different situations and I’m doing so well!
Right now, I’m working hard on staying calm around other dogs and meeting new people. I’ve even been helping new dogs at CBRC feel more relaxed when they settle in - now, how cool is that!
I LOVE having a “job” to do and I adore working closely with my human. I’ve got so much energy, cleverness and fun in me! I’ve even learned to keep all four paws on the ground - no more jumping - so now I do these cute little air twists instead when I’m excited. Aren’t I clever?
🏡 My Dream Home:
I’m hoping to find a home in Cornwall or Devon only, please. I’d love a big enough, securely fenced garden where I can safely run, play and train as I settle into my new life. Having that space will really help me build confidence and feel safe.
I’d thrive in a calm and patient home, somewhere rural or semi-rural without any other pets or children. I really need people who understand dogs like me, who know that I might get reactive sometimes and who will continue the gentle, positive training I’ve already started.
To feel truly safe, I need a confident and experienced adopter who I can trust. In return, I promise to give you so much love and loyalty.
My journey isn’t over yet. I still need someone to walk this path with me, someone who believes in me and is willing to give me the time and love I need. With a consistent routine, fun adventures and ongoing support, I’ll blossom into the best companion you could ever hope for.
🌻👍Trainer Support:
My lovely trainer Joy at CBRC, who loves me very much, will offer free support to help me settle into your home and continue building on everything I’ve learned. She believes in me and wants to make sure your and my new life together starts off strong. Speaking with Joy will be an important part of the adoption process before you can come and meet me.
💖 Could You Be the One I’m Waiting For?
If you think you can offer me the love and safety I deserve, please fill out an adoption application. Everyone at Paws2Freedom will be there to help you with advice and guidance to make sure we’re the perfect match.
