Doug is looking for his forever home with a family that can continue his basic training and dog socialisation and can offer him a calm, loving home and the chance to go on new, exciting adventures. He can be bouncy and excitable at times, so he is looking for adopters who are comfortable around large breeds. Doug needs adopters who understand he can be worried by meeting new people at first, but it does not take him long to warm up to you. He will need to be the only dog in the home, but he would enjoy having walking friends. Doug would love his home to have a secure garden where he can learn his basics and have a safe place to explore and play, as Doug loves to play with toys.

Is Doug right for you?

Doug is an absolute sweetheart and has won the hearts of his canine carers and is adored by all who work with him here at the centre. He is sure to make you smile with his adorable face and waggy tail. He adores nothing more than spending time with his human friends, and he has a very sweet nature and is very affectionate. He loves soaking up all the attention, fuss and cuddles from his favourite people. Doug is a friendly, excitable and lovable boy who enjoys his walks and having cuddles. Doug does need more dog socialisation and training as he can be a little intense and overly excited when making new doggy friends. Doug is going to make a fantastic addition to someone's family; he will fill your home with love and joy.

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.

With our free behaviour support, our Canine Care …
