Meet the bubbly Luna, this gorgeous lady came into the NSPCA through our inspectors. She has been through a lot but that hasn’t dampened her spirits. She loves saying hi to everyone and getting lots of pets. Luna is very energetic and would greatly benefit from some ongoing training to help her adjust to a new home and also to focus her energy. She is very food motivated so would so really well with training. Luna would be best suited to a home with older teenagers/adults due to her bouncy and playful nature. Luna needs a family who will be patient with her as she settles in to a new environment and that will support her too. Luna is the sweetest girl and still has plenty of energy to go on adventures with her new family. She could potentially live with another dog pending a dog meet.
Apply to adopt
How adoption works
Take some time to get to know the animals looking for homes and read their stories to see who might be a good fit for you. If you’d like to move forward, you can complete an application online by registering your interest.
Please note: submitting an application does not guarantee a specific animal — we carefully match each animal with the right home.
Come in and speak with our rehoming team about the animal you’re interested in. If they’ve already been reserved, we’ll be happy to introduce you to another animal who may be a good match for your home and lifestyle.
Opening hours:
- NSPCA Dublin: Tuesday – Sunday, 12–4pm (no appointment needed)
- NSPCA Longford: Monday – Sunday, 12–4pm (no appointment needed)
- NSPCA Wicklow: Monday – Sunday, 12–4pm (no appointment needed)
- NSPCA Cork: By appointment only
All members of the household should meet the animal before adoption.
- If you have an existing dog, a dog-to-dog meet will be arranged
- For dogs, a home check will be carried out before adoption – either in person or virtually
- For cats, we may ask for details or photos of your home set-up
Our team will guide you through what’s needed to ensure the right match.
Once your application is approved, we’ll arrange an adoption appointment. On the day, you’ll bring your new companion home and begin your life together.
You will need to:
- Be over 18
- Provide photo ID and proof of address
- Provide landlord permission if renting (where applicable)
- Agree to our adoption terms
Adoption fees vary depending on the animal and contribute towards essential care such as neutering, microchipping, vaccinations, and parasite treatments.
Important:
Please bring a suitable, secure carrier (for cats and small animals) or lead and collar/harness (for dogs) to take your pet home safely.
If you don’t have these, they are available to purchase in our on-site shop.
