Meet Audry! Audry is a beautiful girl on the lookout for her retirement home. She would prefer a quiet, adult only home where she can enjoy her own space. Audry could have dog walking buddies, but would prefer to be the only dog in the home so she can lap up all the attention! She would appreciate a large, enclosed garden space where she can potter about and enjoy her favourite enrichment games, like snuffle mats. She is not used to the car so does need help building her confidence around travelling in a vehicle. Audry is housetrained but would still like company during the day until leaving time can be built up gradually. Audry currently receives some ongoing medication which can be discussed further with the team at the centre.

Is Audry right for you?

Audry is a 12-year-old Spaniel crossbreed but don't let age fool you! Audry loves nothing more than her daily walks and adventures! She is a sweet girl who has won the hearts of many of the staff here at the centre. She can be a tad shy at first so will need a couple meets at the centre before going home with her new family. Audry does find the vets quite scary so will need some help building her confidence around this environment. Our centre training team will be on hand to help with this and set up a plan to follow in her new home. She is also super foodie which comes in handy for any training you take on together! If you feel Audry is the pawfect match for you, follow the steps below to submit an application and don't forget to "favourite" Audry!

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.
