Are you right for Kobi?
Kobi is a lovely, affectionate, gentle boy. He enjoys meeting dogs out on walks, and he could share his home with another dog. He is fine to live with older primary school aged children. He would love his own garden to run around in, and also loves long walks with the foster carer he is currently staying with. He loves going out in the car, and travels well. He needs adopters around all of the time initially, as he doesnt like to be left alone, and can become vocal.
Is Kobi right for you?
Kobi is a lovely calm dog, and he very much takes life as it comes. He really enjoys long walks, and is happy to travel in the car, so would love days out for sniffs and strolls. He needs to be the only dog in his new home. He does have a very high prey drive, so can be very strong on lead if he spots a deer or a squirrel, so adopters should be confident with managing this. He cannot live with cats, and would chase. He's happy to walk alongside other dogs and enjoys meeting new people - always waggy and happy to say hello. He doesnt have a great appetite and can be quite picky with eating, so his new family will need to be patient with this. He will happily chill out for much of the day and relax in the home, but he doesnt like to be left alone, and this will need to be built very slowly once he's in his new home. He could live with older primary school children. He is on ongoing mild pain relief for his joints, which doesnt hold him back in any way, and this will be discussed in full with any potential adopters.

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.

Show detailsIf 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.
