Welcome to the Senior Staffy Club’s new website!

Welcome to the Senior Staffy Club’s website!

We are a registered charity [No: 1156723], dedicated to rescuing and re-homing more mature (aged 7 years and older) Staffordshire Bull Terriers and Staffy cross dogs.

The Staffies we care for are senior dogs who have found themselves in rescue and in need of a new home for many reasons; their owner may have passed away; family circumstances may have changed or they have simply been picked up by the dog warden as a stray.

As they are older they can find it difficult to find new homes but we work hard to make sure they do and we will care for them until that perfect home comes along. We are unique in that we are a breed specific rescue whose sole focus is the Senior Staffy.

We are based mainly in the Midlands area but rehome throughout the UK.

SSC's Christmas Tree

If you would like to send our Senior Staffies a gift for Christmas, we invite you to make a donation (of your choice) and choose a bauble, light a light, or place a present under our virtual Christmas tree by clicking on the Christmas tree above and following the link.

By sending a Christmas gift of a donation it means we can continue helping the Seniors in our care who are waiting for homes, and ensure we can continue helping Senior Staffies in the future.

When you make a donation you can dedicate a light to one of our Seniors, or to your own loved one (human or canine), and leave a message and a photo (optional) that you can share with friends and family.

We know how special every Senior Staffy is and that is why we work tirelessy all year round to help as many in need as we can and your kind donations enable us to do this day after day....which is the best Christmas present all Senior Staffies in need could get!

Thank you !

Adoption Dog of the Month

Rusty

Rusty is currently in foster in Worcestershire. Rusty went into foster to help with his recovery from being under nourished and neglected. He has been with his foster mum since 2nd July. This is what his frosty has to say about him:

"Rusty is an absolute bundle of fun! He loves a cuddle and falls to the floor every time for a belly rub.

"He is a handsome boy and he knows it! Rusty will happily sleep anywhere you let him and he does sleep upside down like a diva.

"Rusty loves a ball - doesn't matter the size! He also loves anything meaty and chewy.

"Rusty is fine on his own for a few hours, he does let out a little cry initially but no barking or destruction and often just takes himself to his bed ready to greet you again with his ever waggly bum!

"He is dog reactive, but does seem to be more out of excitment and will happily be redirected verbally. He is a bit of a puller at the start of a walk, but soon settles down.

"Rusty has been great with all people, he really is a joy to be around! He is so clumsy and his tail just never stops wagging!

"He is great in the car and loves to sniff his way round the fields."

By adopting a Senior Staffy you are giving an older dog the second chance they deserve.

Many of our seniors have been rescued from the dog pound and were at high risk of being put to sleep or quite simply their previous owners were not able to look after them for various reasons and realised they needed help.
