Are there older dogs for sale in Northamptonshire?

Animals In Need Northamptonshire asks a minimum donation of £250 per dog and Midlands Dog Rescue £375 for a dog aged 5 months to 7 years. For Greenleaf Animal Rescue, see the rescue's own page for its fee.

Can I get a free older dog to a good home in Northamptonshire, or one under £500?

Usually not from a rescue: each asks an adoption fee towards neutering, microchipping and vaccinations, and a "free to a good home" advert is a private one with no rescue checks behind it. Of the rescues listing older dogs in Northamptonshire today, the published fees run from £250 at Animals In Need Northamptonshire to £400 at Silver Fox Dog Rescue. Every one of those is under £500.
