Are you right for Georgia?

Super playful and goofy girl Georgia is a 3 year old Collie cross who loves nothing more than a good zoom around with her toys. She likes a good game of tuggy with a raggy toy and will chase around after her tough balls, she does like to bring them back for you to throw again. She is an affectionate pooch and loves a good fuss, she loves to nuzzle into you and then will wander off when she is done. She is a smart cookie and has a brain thirsty for learning, so if you’ve got the treats, she’s got the tricks! One of her favourite things is to sit and watch the world go by, so if you have a window for her to look out of, she will keep you up to date of all the goings on in your area. This gorgeous lady is looking for a special home to call her own, could your home be what she is looking for.

Is Georgia right for you?

Gorgeous Georgia is looking for her fur-ever home having spent some time with us here at the centre. She is looking for a family who love long walks, finishing with a sofa snuggle. Space in the home is essential for Georgia, she needs a home that isn't open plan so she is able to be kept separate from specific areas when needed. Georgia is looking for an adult only home with adopters who are able to continue her ongoing training. She would like to be the only pet in the home so she can have all of her families attention to herself, however she is a friendly bean and loves to meet new doggy friends, so will be more than happy to have friendly and playful walking buddies. Georgia is a super clever lady who has a book of tricks ready to show you, including ‘sit’ ‘down’ ‘paw’ ‘touch’ ‘bed’. She is also learning how to settle in a crate and wear a muzzle while with us. She is going home on a lead disclaimer so will need a private, secure garden where she can have time off lead to potter and play at her leisure. Once settled into her new home, Georgia may be able to be left for up to 4 hours at a time, this should be introduced gradually once she has had time to get used to her new family and surroundings. Georgia is on daily medication and will need to meet her adopters multiple times prior to going home with the potential for home visits with our behaviour team to make sure she is settling in well. Please note that should you be shortlisted, our rehoming process usually takes up to 7 days, and potential adopters would be required to come up to the centre to meet her within 48hrs of being shortlisted.

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 …

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 …

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.

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.

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.
