Are you right for Bugsy?

Meet handsome chappy, Bugsy! Bugsy is an 8-year old Frenchie looking for his forever home. Bugsy is able to live with another calm dog in the home, pending a successful meet here in the centre. He would prefer for children to be older primary school aged and over, as he's a wonderfully sweet, gentle and quiet boy. He can be a bit spooked of people initially, and quick movements, so would prefer a quieter home that he can settle into at his own pace. Bugsy loves to get out for his sniffy walks, and really enjoys exploring new environments. .He can be a little bit noise sensitive, so a calmer home environment would be lovely for him! He may need some confidence building, but is a very gentle, loving boy. He walks well on lead, and loves a fuss. Bugsy can find veterinary handling quite worrying, so has been muzzled for more invasive checks and vaccines. Otherwise, he's a lovely boy who will make his new family so very happy.

Is Bugsy right for you?

Bugsy is a little angel, who loves his people and somewhere comfy to curl up for a snooze. He likes having a small potter around and an explore, but mostly enjoys spending time relaxing with his people. Bugsy loves his food, and eats well - this will be a great aid in helping with some house-training skills that he needs a bit of support with. He is happy to be left for up to 4 hours once settled, and is happy with informal handling and being harnessed up for his walks. Bugsy is a sweetheart, and we can't wait to see him thriving in his forever home. Like many Frenchies, Bugsy does have flare ups with his skin and will need a bit of management with this in his new home.

How our rehoming process works

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.

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...

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.

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 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.
