About Sheffield Dog Rescue
Sheffield Dog Rescue is run by a small army of volunteers with one aim, to help dogs in need. Many of our dogs come to us via North East Derbyshire Dog Wardens and we also receive numerous calls from members of the public asking for help to rehome their pet dogs. We try to help as many dogs as we can, but funding and kennel space makes this a difficult task. We operate a no kill policy and none of our dogs are destroyed, unless advised to do so by our vet for health reasons.
All our rescued dogs receive initial vaccinations, are microchipped, deflead and dewormed. The Sheffield Dog Rescue also cover the cost of spaying / neutering of each dog.
All new owners receive one full year’s FREE membership to Sheffield Dog Rescue and we give a full back-up service to new owners.
Our kennels are located at Mosborough in Sheffield, where the dogs can be viewed by appointment. Voluntary dog walkers are welcomed, as the dogs need to be exercised and socialised as much as possible.
We rely totally on donations from the general public and income from our charity shop in Chesterfield, which is run voluntarily. The shop has a variety of new and second hands good for sale.

About Star
Despite Star being 18months old she is only just starting her journey in life. She is a true rescue dog who came to us after living outdoors in all weathers with no proper shelter.
Since being with us she has well and truly come out of her shell. She is a very boisterous girl who needs lots of attention and true to the breed she is definitely like a bull in a china shop and barges around not realising how big she really is.
Star has clearly never had any training so we are starting from scratch with her and she is slowly learning basic commands but needs a lot of work. As we don’t have any real history on Star she would have to go to a child and pet free home. She needs to get used to lead walks as she is incredibly strong and this seems to be a new experience for her too. Unfortunately she has to wear a muzzle as she has shown signs on dog aggression and this is safer for both her and other dogs whilst out on her walks.
As is typical for the breed she does suffer with a very sensitive stomach and sore skin so she is on a strict diet at the moment to help conquer this.
There is no hiding the fact that Star needs a lot of work and someone who has a lot of time to spend with her and to train her both in and out the house. She has loads of energy and is a very strong girl but her favourite thing is just running around the garden with a football playing and loves nothing more than having lots of fuss and attention.
There is no doubt once you have put in the time and effort with Star she will become just that -your Star!
She will make a great addition to an experienced bull breed loving home that she so rightly deserves.
