Likes

Bambi is a charming 6-year-old lurcher. She loves to play with her toys, particularly fluffy teddies, and enjoys a zoom wherever she goes - her favourite past time is zoomies around the field. She loves her food and all the treats which will help with her training. Bambi is a bouncy girl with lots of personality, but is also loving and affectionate, and will be a fun addition to a family. She is very popular with our volunteers and the canine carers.

Type of home needed

Bambi is looking for an active family home, and could live with children over 11, but is a little prone to jumping up. Bambi will need all basic training, including house training, so will need direct access to her own secure garden. Bambi will need to be the only pet in the home but can walk with similar sized calm dogs. Leaving hours will need to be built up slowly, but once Bambi is settled, she could be left for a couple of hours.

How rehoming works

Thank you for your interest in Bambi, who is based at Canterbury. 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!
