Meet Caleb🐾gorgeous big boy who has been stuck in kennels with no interest for 10 months

His story is sad and one we have shared before. 3 years ago we were asked to take him in by another rescue when his owner had lost everything and was unable to keep him.

He was adopted with another one of our dogs, his friend from his foster home, and then sadly both were returned only a few weeks later.

One day, whilst he was in our care - Caleb’s first owner came back to us saying he was back on his feet and really wanted his dog back ...so Caleb happily went home with his previous owner. We thought this was such a happy ending for both Caleb and his dad.

At the start of the year we were contacted by a vet in Wales asking for our consent to have him put to sleep. They had checked his chip when his owner had taken him in and realised we were on the chip as a secondary contact and that Caleb had rescue back up.

Of course we didn't allow that to happen and said we would take him back. From what we remembered of Caleb he was a lovely boy who is now 5 years old.

We don't know the in's and outs of why he was taken in to be put to sleep that day. All we have been told is that he was attacked by two other dogs a year ago and this had left him dog reactive, he remained good with people.

We worked quickly to find an emergency space for Caleb and get him safe. He has been back with us since February 2025.

Caleb is quite a large boy and originally came from Portugal, he is a big friendly goofball who loves people.

Previously, he didn't like being left alone for long periods but that may have changed over time. Caleb loves to play and still thinks he's can fit on your lap!! He is strong on the lead but we haven’t seen any reactivity mentioned by the previous home.

Caleb is currently in kennels and is feeling very sad. He's desperate to find his forever family and doesn't understand what he's done wrong to end up back in rescue.

Caleb is looking for a home experienced with bigger dogs, pet free home who will take him on for the rest of his life. He's neutered and fully vaccinated.

He really is a gorgeous boy inside and out and a firm favourite with our volunteers! We haven’t seen any of the reactivity mentioned by his previous home towards other dogs out on a walk.

10 months is a lifetime for a dog to be cooped up in kennels. Caleb needs a home!!!

Please share to help Caleb find a family.
