Meet Ted, an 11-year-old Pomeranian looking for his retirement home. He is looking for adopters who are happy to learn his body language to understand how he's feeling and what he is trying to communicate. Ted would benefit from continuing his basic training and building a bond with a vet to improve his vet handling. Ted’s ideal home would have lots of beds and different places for him to get cosy with a toy or chew and be given space when enjoying one. However, he will always choose your lap over a bed, given the opportunity! Ted could live with children aged 12+ and have regular visitors once settled. He is looking to be the only dog and pet in the home, to soak up all the attention for himself. He would love a private or communal garden to enjoy pottering around in and taking in all the smells; however, he doesn't have to have one, as long as his needs are being met.

Is Ted right for you?

Ted is a very happy little guy; he loves to make himself known and will greet everyone with a big smile and lots of energy. He would sit and have fuss all day long if he could! Out and about, Ted always checks back in with his handler and comes running back for a snuggle. He plays nicely and enjoys toys that squeak. Ted has a more refined palate, so prefers higher-value treats and snacks. In his kennel, Ted enjoys his cosy bed and all of his stuffed toys. He is quiet and relaxed, spending his days watching the world go by. If you could offer Ted his cosy forever home, you could be his pawfect match!

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 …

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.
