Bonnie

Bonnie and Buddy are a pair of beautiful Lhasa Apsos who have always been together and gain lots of security and confidence from each other. They are looking for a home where they will be loved and cherished, and owners able and happy to keep them in the tip-top condition they arrived in. They could live with older sensible primary school children who understand they can be a little worried in a noisy environment. They would like to be the only dogs in their new home, but would love contact with dog pals outside of the home as they are very sociable around other dogs. They can be shy but happy to greet everyone they meet. They would love their own secure garden but could share if the available space isnt too busy. They enjoy going out in the car so could be taken to lots of places to have a good sniff around and a stroll.

Is Bonnie right for you?

Bonnie comes with her brother and they have always been together - they get lots of comfort and reassurance from each other. Due to their breed, they have beautiful long coats, and this would need to be maintained regularly with visits to the groomers - they love to be brushed too so their coats can also be looked after in the home between hair appointments. They are a very sweet little pair and Bonnie especially loves to curl up on a warm lap and snooze (as long as Buddy is close by!) They walk really nicely on lead and are very clean in the house, asking to go out when needed. They can be shy, so it might take them a little while to settle into their new home, but once they feel safe and secure, they will make lovely, fun companions and their current foster carers say they are a joy to have around. Please note that you won’t be applying for a specific dog, but you can tell us what type of dog you’re looking for. You can also add up to four favourites to your application to give us an idea of the dogs you like, so we can consider you for similar dogs. Once you’ve submitted your application, we can’t change or update your favourites. Adding a dog to your application is not a reservation but a guide for us to find you a match.

We’ll contact you within seven days

We’ll be in touch by phone or email within seven days of receiving your application to have a chat about your dog search. Then we'll start looking for a great match for you.

We will make two attempts to contact you. If after the second attempt we don’t hear back from …

We’ll keep your application open for three months and keep looking for a match

You won't need to do anything else or apply again for three months. We’ll keep reviewing your application against all the dogs at your chosen centre. Not all available dogs are featured on our website; dogs of all shapes and sizes regularly come into our care, and your application will be considered for any dogs that match your requirements. We’ll contact you as soon as we find a good match.

If for some reason we don’t find the right dog in that time, you can reapply, and we’ll keep looking.

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.
