Mylo

I'm looking for my forever home. Could you be my perfect match?

Are you right for Mylo?

Say hello to our beautiful 2 year old Labrador, Mylo! He’s a bouncy boy who is looking for the perfect adopters to play with him and teach him his best manners. Mylo is full of beans, and he will jump up when he’s excited – which is most of the time! For this reason, his ideal home would be with older teenagers or above, who are confident around energetic dogs. Mylo is looking to be the only pet in the home as he has been known to guard his resources from other dogs. He is selective about his doggy friends whilst he’s out and about, so his new owners will need to be patient and slowly build up his social skills. Mylo is such a gorgeous boy and we know he’ll bring his people a lot of joy and love!

Is Mylo right for you?

Mylo is a sweet natured boy who is eager to make friends and get lots of fuss from his humans. He’s a typical Labrador with lots of energy, so he’ll need plenty of exercise and time spent playing with his favourite toys. Mylo is a strong lad who tends to pull on the lead when he’s out for walks, but he’s incredibly smart, so with ongoing training we know he can learn to be the perfect walking companion. He’s also working hard on his housetraining skills, though he will likely need some reminders whilst he gets used to his new surroundings. Once Mylo has settled into the family, he could be left by himself for up to 4 hours; he has sometimes been a bit vocal when he’s on his own, so he would love a family who can build up any leaving hours slowly to build his confidence. We can’t wait to see Mylo thriving in his forever home!

How our rehoming process works

  1. 1

    Create an account and fill out our application form

    If you’re ready to adopt, please complete our form to tell us all about your home, lifestyle and the kind of dogs you’re interested in. You won’t be applying for a specific dog, but 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...

    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 a match.

  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 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 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.

    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.
