Are you right for Bosco?
Bosco is a stunning 1 year old Rottweiler with a bright mind and a big personality. This handsome boy is incredibly smart and loves nothing more than earning tasty treats while showing off what he has learnt.
Bosco does have a sensitive, anxious side, so is looking for a calm, adult only home. He would prefer to be the only dog in the home but he can happily enjoy the company of calm doggy friends while out on walks.
He can take a little time to warm up to new people, but once he feels comfortable Bosco's cheeky fun-loving nature really shines through. Bosco isn't comfortable with lots of handling so is learning to wear a muzzle for vet visits and grooming. His new family will need to be patient and committed, attending multiple visits to the centre and working closely with our training team to support Bosco as he moves into his new home.
Bosco would love his own secure garden where he can relax, play with his toys and explore at his own pace.
Is Bosco right for you?
With the right understanding and guidance, Bosco has so much potential to grow into a wonderfully loyal and rewarding companion.

How our rehoming process works

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.

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.

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.
