Are you right for Moose?

Moose is a stunning seven-year-old Cane Corso cross with the most loving, goofy personality once he knows and trusts you. He’s a huge softie at heart who absolutely adores his people and loves nothing more than leaning into you for fuss and cuddles on the sofa after a fun day of adventures. Moose is looking for an adult-only home in a rural setting where he can truly relax and feel safe, away from busy foot traffic and unfamiliar visitors passing the house. He would love his own fully secure private garden where he can potter about, play with his toys and enjoy life at his own pace. Moose would prefer to be the only pet in the home so he can soak up all the love and attention, although he’s happy to have doggy friends out on walks. Moose can feel worried when approached by strangers, so he is walked on lead and wears a muzzle when out and about. He is fully muzzle trained and very comfortable wearing it. Our behaviour team working with Moose have already helped him make fantastic progress, and his new family will receive all the guidance and support needed to continue building his confidence.

Is Moose right for you?

Once Moose forms a bond, his affectionate side truly shines. He’s incredibly loyal, full of character, and guaranteed to make you laugh with his playful, puppy-like antics when chasing his toys around. He’s also a massive foodie, which makes ongoing training and confidence building both rewarding and fun. Moose would thrive with someone patient, understanding and home for much of the day while he settles in. His ideal adopters will be willing to visit him regularly at the centre and take the time to earn his trust — but those who do will gain the most devoted, cuddly and loving best friend they could wish for.

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 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...
