Our Services

What We Do

The rescue sector has changed massively since the Coronavirus pandemic, creating a huge impact on dogs, and their owners, whether it’s through the lack of socialisation from the many lockdowns, or behavioural issues, including separation anxiety, from having become used to owners working from home. We recognised that more tailored support and help was needed to ensure we can find dogs the correct and best forever home and we launched our fostering model in November 2022. We work with trained and experienced fosterers to look after, and rehabilitate, its rescue dogs in their home until they are ready for rehoming, through using dedicated experts and behaviourists.

Find out more about fostering with St Francis on our dedicated Fostering page.

Fostering

THIS BEAUTIFUL SOFT GIRL IS SEEKING HER NEW HOME THROUGH NO FAULT OF HER OWN EB is a Rhodesian Ridgeback X Cane Corso.She is 3 years old and not spayed as yet, however this is being organised at the moment.EB is being rehomed through no fault of her own and is a very loved family dog.Here’s what you need to know about EBβœ”οΈShe’s good with the cats she currently lives with.βœ”οΈShe lives with children but due to her size we would only rehome her with dog savvy children over 10 years old.βœ”οΈEB loves her toys and treats and she likes to play.βœ”οΈShe’s good on her lead and is calm around traffic and other animals.βœ”οΈGood with other dogs and could live with other dogs subject to meet and greet.βœ”οΈGood on her lead and will walk 8 miles or more no problem but if it’s cold or raining she won’t fuss if it’s just a short walk.EB is loyal and kind and can be left home alone, although currently she is left home with other dogs for company… so on her own she may be anxious to begin with.EB has a very calm relaxed nature but is a big strong girl so an experienced dog owner would be best for her.EB is used to living on a quiet farm and enjoys a lot of freedom which really contributes to her very calm nature.Her new owners would need to be aware that she needs plenty of exercise and preferably a large garden.Although she is very good on her lead, she is a very strong girl so new adopters would need to ensure they are strong enough to hold her.We feel EB would thrive in a family home with older children/teenagers as she really enjoys plenty of company, playtime, affection and adventure.She is a real sweetheart and if you can offer her a new home please click here stfrancisnewquay.org.uk/adopt-a-dog-form/ ...
