Handsome Axo has come into our care through no fault of his own, as his owner was sadly no longer able to care for him. Despite the changes he’s experienced, Axo has remained a happy and affectionate little lad who greets everyone he meets with a wiggly tail and lots of love. Axo is currently living off-site in a foster home where he is settling in really well and enjoying a comfortable routine. He has been mostly housetrained and travels well in the car, making him a great companion for little adventures. Axo does have a history of being left for short periods, but we would recommend any time alone is built up gradually as he settles into his new home. He’s a friendly and social boy when out and about, so we think Axo could potentially live with another dog following a successful meeting here at the centre. We also think he could happily live with sensible secondary school aged children. Axo is a real cuddle lover who enjoys the simple comforts in life – a cosy bed, a warm sofa, and plenty of snuggles with his people. He’s looking for a loving forever home where he can continue to feel safe, cherished, and part of the family.

Is Axo right for you?

Axo is an older gent at 11 years old and is currently on pain relief to help keep him happy and comfortable. Our team here at the centre would be happy to discuss Axo's medical needs 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 …

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.
