Her Story:
Imagine a warm summer evening on the sofa — your new best friend curls up next to you, resting her head gently against your arm, her kind eyes filled with trust... that’s Izzy.
This lovely girl was rescued from a public shelter/kill station, and ever since, she has had one big dream: to finally belong. How no one has noticed her yet is truly beyond belief. Behind those golden eyes lives one of the sweetest, most affectionate souls you’ll ever meet.
For more than two long years, Izzy has been waiting behind bars — wagging her tail every day for anyone who might see her. It’s time for her story to change.
Why Izzy is so special:
💛 Heart-melting looks: Her golden, rough coat, expressive face and fluffy curled tail make her look like a living teddy bear.
🤗 Soft personality: Izzy adores human affection and thrives on attention — she’s a true cuddlebug who enjoys every touch.
🐶 Social sweetheart: She’s friendly with other dogs (especially calm males) and quickly adapts to new situations.
🌼 Gentle spirit: Despite everything she’s been through, she remains trusting, mellow, and full of quiet joy.

💬 Temperament: affectionate, balanced, calm, loves to be close to her people.
🐕 Social behaviour: gets along very well with other dogs, enjoys gentle company.
☀️ Daily happiness: a nice walk, a short game, then cuddles on the sofa — that’s Izzy’s idea of heaven.
Ideal Home:
Izzy deserves a loving forever home where she’ll be included in everyday life, not just watched from the sidelines.
Whoever is lucky enough to adopt her will gain an unbelievably sweet and selfless little soul. Izzy does everything she can to make you feel good — she radiates warmth, gentleness and quiet joy in every moment. It’s hard to put into words how truly special she is.
She’s the perfect match for adopters who:
Have time and presence, so she’s not left alone for long stretches each day (alternating schedules are fine).
Offer her love, attention and structure, showing her what it feels like to truly belong.
Enjoy daily walks, playtime and relaxing moments together.
Have a secure, dog-proof garden where she can safely explore, sniff, and enjoy the outdoors.
✨ A Second Chance:
Izzy is ready — her little suitcase is packed for the UK, filled with hope, love and a favourite toy.
After more than two years in the shelter, this wonderful girl deserves to wake up each morning in her own home — beside the person she loves.
💛 Will you be the one who finally opens that door for her? 💛
📩 CONTACT:
Friends InDeed Animal Rescue is a registered charity.
A home check (sometimes even online) is required before any adoption.
We do not place our dogs with people who don’t genuinely love animals – too many lives depend on us, and we can’t afford to take chances.
To adopt one of our dogs, you must have your own secure garden (dog-proof, with man-height fencing and safe gates) and no children under 10 years old.
We do not provide working dogs, therapy dogs, or assistance dogs – no matter how noble the intention.
If you adopt Izzy, she will live with you as a beloved family member, cherished and cared for as she truly deserves.
You also agree to keep in touch with us – we love updates and are always here for support if you need it.
We prefer to communicate via phone or WhatsApp, as we both work during the day and have limited email access. It’s much easier and faster to exchange all necessary information this way.
If you’d like, we can arrange a video call, so you can meet Izzy live before meeting her in person.
We are a 100 % genuine and transparent rescue, fully dedicated to saving lives.
We are also actively involved in sterilisation programmes for stray dogs and in finding loving forever homes.
We reserve the right to ask for a different adoption contribution depending on each dog’s individual circumstances.
In most cases, our costs are not fully covered.
We stay in touch with all our adopters – over 500 families so far – and can provide excellent references upon request.
⚠️ Please note: we receive many irrelevant messages and calls.
We kindly ask – no time wasters, please!
Thank you for your understanding and compassion.
With kind regards,
Adrian & Maria
