Are you right for Trooper?

Say hello to this very handsome boy, Trooper. Trooper is a lovely young man who adores the company of people and really doesn't like being left alone. He is finding kennel life a bit difficult and would love to get into a warm and loving home as soon as possible. In Troopers new home we would like adults or older teens only. Trooper has lived with another dog in his previous home so we do feel he could share his new home with another friendly dog, pending successful meets at the rehoming centre. A secure outdoor space would also be really lovely for Trooper to help with his house training and to burn off some of that excitable energy. Trooper will need someone around all of the day when he first arrives at this new home, leaving hours should be minimal for quite some time as he finds being left alone rather stressful.

Is Trooper right for you?

Trooper is a one year old Husky x French Bulldog. He is a very loving boy who will more than happily jump up onto your knee for some cuddles and bum scratches. He enjoys a good enriching walk and exploring new places. Trooper can be a little wary when he first meets new people so will need a few meets at the centre to help build a bond before he would be comfortable going home to his new family. As Trooper finds some situations a bit scary, he does need some help with his veterinary handling. Our training team can lead the way on this with some plans on how to help Trooper feel better when at the vets. We do need his new family to be willing to work slowly, at his pace, to give him the best start in his new life. Trooper has lots of fun energy and needs daily activities to help keep his brain working so new adopters will need to love walking and playing as much as he does. Once you get to know Trooper and earn his trust he is one of the sweetest and most caring soul, who will be right by your side for all the love (and treats!)

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 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 …
