Are you right for Domino?

Domino is looking for a patient and understanding home that will help him continue building his confidence. He would love adopters who enjoy taking gentle walks where he can spend plenty of time sniffing and exploring his surroundings. As Domino can feel worried around unfamiliar dogs and some men, his new family should be happy to follow his introduction plan and continue using positive, reward-based training to help him feel safe and confident. Domino is looking for a home where he can be the only pet and could live with secondary-school-aged children and older who understand when he needs a little space. A private garden would be ideal for him to potter around and explore, although other secure exercise arrangements may be considered. He settles well once left alone but would benefit from any leaving time being built up gradually as he settles into his new home.

Is Domino right for you?

Domino is a sweet and affectionate Terrier Cross Chihuahua with a gentle nature and a real love for people. Once he's had the chance to explore a new place, he's happiest by your side, leaning in for fusses and happily asking for more attention with a little nuzzle of his nose. He loves spending time with his favourite people and has a lovely, relaxed personality once he feels comfortable. Exploring the great outdoors is one of Domino's favourite pastimes, and he's always keen to investigate every interesting smell along the way. Food is another of his greatest loves, making training both fun and rewarding. He takes treats gently, enjoys enrichment activities and travels calmly in the car, making him a lovely companion for adventures. Domino may be a little chap, but he has plenty of love to give. With a family who can help him continue growing in confidence and celebrate all the wonderful things that make him unique, Domino is sure to become a loyal and devoted best friend.

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

  5. 5

    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.
