Are you right for Zee?

Zee is looking for a loving home that can offer structure, reassurance, and plenty of cosy spaces. She can live with upper primary school‑aged children who will enjoy her fun, affectionate nature. Although she’s happy to say hello to dogs out and about, Zee can sometimes be unsure, so is best suited to be the only dog in the home, and she can't live with any other pets. A private, secure garden will be great for her so she can safely potter and enjoy her outdoor time. As she forms strong bonds with her people, Zee is looking for minimal leaving hours, built up gradually as she settles. With routine, comfort, and lots of love, Zee will be a delightful, loyal companion who fills her home with joy and silly Bulldog charm.

Is Zee right for you?

Meet Zee, a 6‑year‑old Bulldog with the kind of goofy, infectious personality that instantly brightens your day. She’s a very foody girl who will happily show off her playful side, especially if there’s a tennis ball involved. Zee thrives on routine and feels most settled when she’s allowed to sleep upstairs and relax on the sofa—she’s very much a comfort‑lover at heart, so she’s looking for adopters who will enjoy having her close by. She loves going for walks where she can explore, sniff, and take everything in. In her foster home she has been great with visitors, and she’s a superstar traveller: eager to hop into the car and quick to settle down for the journey.

How our rehoming process works

  1. 1

    Create an account and fill out our application form

    In our form you can tell us all about your home, your lifestyle and the kind of dogs you’re interested in. You won’t be applying for a specific dog, but you can add favourites to give us an idea of the dogs you like. We’ll use this information to find a great match for you.

  2. 2

    Choose a rehoming centre

    We’ll also ask you to select a rehoming centre. The team at this centre will look after your application and assess you against all suitable dogs in their care. This doesn’t have to be your nearest centre, but you will need to travel there within a few days once we’ve found you...

  3. 3

    We’ll review your application

    We’ll review your application against the dogs in our care at your chosen centre. If we think we have the right dog for you, we’ll be in touch as soon as possible. If we don’t hear back from you, we will close your application for now, and you can reapply when you’re ready. 

  4. 4

    We’ll keep your application open for three months and keep looking for a match

    If we don’t have a dog for you right now, we’ll keep your application open for three months and keep you in mind for any new dogs that arrive. If within this time you see another dog you are interested in, you won't need to apply again but you can amend your application by...

If within this time you see another dog you are interested in, you won't need to apply again but you can amend your application by calling us on 0303 003 0000 or visiting your local rehoming centre.

    When we find a match, we’ll invite you to meet them

    If we’ve found a dog who seems right for you, we’ll invite you to come and meet them at the rehoming centre. Some of the dogs in our care will need to meet potential owners several times to get to know one another. This lets us see you’re compatible and gives you the chance...

    If we’ve found a dog who seems right for you, we’ll invite you to come and meet them at the rehoming centre. 

    Some of the dogs in our care will need to meet potential owners several times to get to know one another. This lets us see you’re compatible and gives you the chance to build a bond before making a commitment to give them a new home. By taking some time at the beginning to make sure everyone’s comfortable, an adoption is more likely to be successful. 

    We may also arrange a home visit with you, to see how your house will be set up and check that the garden (if you have one) is secure. This may not be necessary, though, especially if you’ve adopted from us before. Where you already have dogs, we may accept a reference from your vet as an alternative.

  6. 6

    If we haven’t found the right match, we’ll continue the search together

    If we haven’t found the right dog for you within three months, we’ll let you know your application is closed. We’ll invite you to apply again so we have up-to-date information about you, and we’ll keep looking.

  7. 7

    We’ll support you to embark on a new life with your dog

    When we’ve matched you with a dog, we’ll help you welcome them to your home. After adoption we’ll keep in touch to see how you and the dog are doing. If you need any advice or support, we’re just a phone call away. With our free behaviour support, our Canine Care Card and...
