Are you right for Freya?

Freya and Tilda share a very special bond and are looking for a loving home where they can stay together. We are searching for adopters who are happy to welcome a pair of dogs into their lives and can give them the time, patience, and companionship they deserve. Their ideal home would be a quieter environment where they can settle at their own pace and continue to grow in confidence. They cannot live with any other dogs or animals, so they will need to be the only pets in the home. Freya does have some ongoing medical considerations as she currently has low grade mitral valve disease which we can discuss in more detail with you if we find you to be a match . Freya and Tilda could live with sensible children aged 14 years and over who understand when the girls would like some quiet time. Their new family should also be willing to continue building their confidence through gentle, positive training and encouragement, helping them feel safe and secure as they adjust to their new surroundings. Once they have had time to settle and their leaving routine has been built up gradually, Freya and Tilda should be comfortable being left for around 1–4 hours.

Is Freya right for you?

Freya is a gorgeous 12-year-old Cockapoo with an enthusiasm for life that certainly doesn't match her age! She's full of energy, loves to play, and can even jump surprisingly high when she's excited to see you. Freya is looking for a forever home with her best friend, Tilda. The pair share a close bond and must be rehomed together, so we're searching for a family who can offer them both the love and companionship they deserve. Currently living in foster care, Freya has settled well into home life. She enjoys spending time out in the garden, where she can explore, sniff around, and soak up the fresh air. Freya would thrive in a home where she can continue to be part of everyday family life. She has so much love to give and, alongside Tilda, will make a wonderful addition to a home that can offer plenty of companionship, affection, and a comfy spot to relax after a busy day.

How our rehoming process works

  1. 1

    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.

  2. 2

    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 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 you a match.

  3. 3

    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. 

  4. 4

    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 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 calling us on 0303 003 0000 or visiting your local rehoming centre.

    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.

  6. 6

    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.

  7. 7

    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.
