🐾 Introduction
Meet ALBI, a 9–10-year-old small-sized corgi type. ALBI once walked the front lines of war, shoulder-to-shoulder with Ukrainian soldiers. But in the UK, we misunderstood him terribly. We thought he needed peace and quiet. We placed him with elderly people, in silent homes with no other pets. But he was miserable. He was misunderstood, unhappy, and reactive—trying to tell us something we failed to hear.
Then something beautiful happened. When ALBI was just days away from being sent to kennels, a wonderful foster stepped in—and everything changed.
Now living in an active household with children and dogs, ALBI is a completely different dog. His foster says:
"He’s the most perfect dog I’ve ever met. Kind, loving, grateful. He loves kids—especially dog-savvy ones—and more than anything, he loves dogs. Even when they’re nervous, he gives them space until they trust him. He adores being part of the action—bonfires, walks, games, relaxing by your side—he just wants to be included."
ALBI has finally shown us who he really is. This is his fresh start. And now he needs the right home to match.

💔 Rescue Story
ALBI is a war survivor. He lived with soldiers in trenches under shelling—eating scraps, keeping watch, offering comfort. They described him as the “most loyal companion” they’d known. After the war, he was rescued and brought to the UK. But sadly, he ended up passed from one wrong home to another—quiet places that didn’t match his spirit.
Only now, in a home full of life and love, is ALBI finally at peace.
🐕 Detailed Information
ALBI is full of heart. He loves other dogs and needs to live with them—they help him feel joyful. He’s clever, wise, and respectful, especially around timid or fearful pups. He also absolutely adores children—but only gentle, calm ones who understand dogs.
He loves his walks, his garden time, and just being part of the family routine. His former reactivity? Gone. His fear of visitors? Gone. Even around men, he now behaves beautifully, simply because he’s happy and no longer stressed or bored.
ALBI sleeps soundly, enjoys soft beds, and lives for companionship. He’s not a loner—he wants to be where his people and his pack are. He doesn’t need a mansion, just a home full of love and movement, and people who will include him in their world.
🏡 Ideal Home
💙 ALBI is seeking an active, loving home with at least one other friendly dog (the more the merrier). A secure garden is a must. The older children who are kind and respectful will be welcomed by him with open paws.
He’d suit a home where someone is around most of the time—he loves his humans deeply. A calm but lively household where he can be included in walks, playtime, and snuggles is exactly what he’s been waiting for.
ALBI is a new dog in a new life. After everything he’s been through—from war trenches to emotional neglect—he’s finally happy. And we owe it to him to keep it that way.
If you’ve got space in your home and your heart, and a few muddy walks and belly rubs to spare, please consider giving this brave, beautiful boy his forever.
