Misty is a beautiful two-year-old with a friendly disposition. She loves the company of her humans and will become increasingly attentive once she knows you. However, she can be shy when first making friends and prefers a ‘no pressure’ approach to building a bond. While Misty is happy to see most dogs out and about, she may become over-aroused when they come too close, especially smaller pooches. She could have well-matched walking buddies with dogs of a similar size and playstyle to herself but will need to be the only dog at home. Care will also need to be taken around other animals, such as livestock and cats, as she does have a high prey drive and will need to stay on lead. She’s seeking active adopters who are physically confident in managing her size and strength, as she can be strong when pulling to get to something exciting. Working with her on some ‘loose-lead-walking’ training will be hugely beneficial. Misty doesn’t have much experience around children, and due to feeling timid at times, we feel she would be best suited to a home with secondary-school-aged children who could allow her some space from time to time. She’d suit a quieter household where she can enjoy some relaxation as well as fun enrichment activities, and a secure garden of her own to explore. Typical of her breed, Misty likes to use her ‘singing voice’ at times, so she needs adopters who are happy to embrace her chatty nature. Leaving her alone at home should only be built up very gradually and once she is fully settled in.

Is Misty right for you?

Playful and full of fun, Misty loves her toys and is particularly fond of engaging in a game of fetch with her people pals. Once she’s built up a relationship, she shows off her affectionate side and will enjoy gentle fusses or simply hanging out in your company. Misty’s favourite pastimes include going on a long walk to explore exciting new places, playtime in the garden, working her clever brain with fun training or food puzzles, and chilling out with you on the sofa after a day of activity. She’d make for the ideal companion to an active family who have plenty of time to keep her busy, and who could provide her with the peaceful, yet enriching life that she longs for.

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 …

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 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.

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.

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.
