Dublin Dog Hub provides shelter and rehoming services across Dublin and the surrounding areas. We work with Dublin City Council and run a private rescue in parallel.
We are under contract to Dublin City Council's Animal Welfare Unit to provide safe, secure and comfortable accommodation to stray, seized or unwanted dogs. We strive to reunite lost dogs with their owners and to find new homes for dogs who need them.
Need to surrender a dog? Contact DCC Animal Welfare directly on 01 222 3368 / 01 222 5441 or 01 222 6060 (out of hours).
Founded by Linda Martin in February 2024, our private rescue works alongside the DCC contract. Every dog receives the same care and attention, and we work hard to rehabilitate where needed and find these dogs their forever home.
All visits are strictly by appointment only so we can keep the environment quiet, safe and restful for our dogs.
All adoptions are subject to a meet and a home check. Only shortlisted applicants will be contacted.

Staffy X ยท Male ยท White
โค๏ธ Meet the gorgeous Mr Pongo. He's approx 1.5 year old staffie X who came into our care as a stray. He is a really happy go luck boy and loves to meet people and gives you the biggest grin and tail wag as he does. He has a goofy, clumsy nature and wants to always be under your feet getting belly rubs. We think he would be best suited as the only dog in the home as he seems never to have been socialised with other dogs, but with patience this could be improved. What is a guarantee is that he will love his peeps with every bone in his body. Come and meet him for yourself.
