Likes

Rosie is a sweet and gentle 14 year old Staffordshire Bull Terrier who has lots of love to give and enjoys being in the company of her human pals. Her favourite pastimes are: playing a game of tug, chewing on tasty treats, pottering about on little walks and cuddling up on your lap for some kisses!

Type of home needed

Rosie doesn't depend too much on other dogs and would rather avoid them so she's looking to be the only pet in a household where children are over the age of 12. She's seeking owners who will always be around to keep her company in the initial stages until she gradually learns to feel settled on her own. Rosie may be slightly hard of hearing, but she's still an attentive little lady who loves to engage with you.

More about me

This endearing girl would love to find a relaxing retirement home to settle in. If you think you may be able to provide her with this, then please call the centre in advance of your visit as Rosie is currently staying in a temporary foster home.

How rehoming works

Thank you for your interest in Rosie, who is based at Shoreham. Please note this is not a reservation on this dog. To start the rehoming process you will need to go to a rehoming centre for a quick chat. Please find information below about what to expect during the rehoming process. We hope to see you soon.

The average time between visiting a Rehoming Centre and taking your new pet home is just eight days. Every circumstance is different but this brief guide lets you know what you will experience when you decide to rehome a dog from us.

The rehoming centre is your gateway to finding your new pet pooch. When you arrive at the centre you will be greeted in reception by a friendly face.

During this first visit we will take a few details from you so we know what you are looking for. You will be able to visit the dogs and we'll advise you on how to find the right dog for your circumstance and that your circumstances will work for the dog too.

We would like you to get to know your chosen dog before you take him home so, if you have any other dogs or family members, you may need to bring them along for a further visit to ensure the whole family is happy with the decision.

The fee for rehoming a dog is £150 (£140 in Ballymena due to extra dog licence fees),for puppies its £150 adoption fee plus a £45 Dog School fee but every dog is vet checked, microchipped, and neutered as well as a very cool Dogs Trust lead and collar - so we think it's a good deal!

On rehoming your new dog from Dogs Trust you can receive 4 weeks' free insurance from our partner Petplan, this covers your dog for any unexpected illnesses and injuries, for further details and to activate your 4 weeks' free trial visit the Petplan website.

So now you are ready to take your new pal home, just one more step which is a pre-adoption talk. This ensures you are aware of the responsibilities of dog ownership and reminds you that we are always here when you need us!
