Are you right for Myla?

Meet Myla, a sweet, sensitive soul looking for her forever home. Myla is an 11-month-old Staffy cross with a gentle nature and so much love to give. She can be a little shy at first, but once she feels safe and comfortable, her affectionate and playful personality really shines through. Myla would thrive in a calm, understanding home with children aged 14 and over, where she can build her confidence at her own pace. She can feel worried around other dogs, so she’s looking for a home where she can be the only pet. That said, she is able to socialize with dogs out and about when given space and reassurance. She has a full home history, is house trained, and can be left alone for up to 3 hours. Myla already knows some basic commands including sit, down, and paw, and she’s eager to learn more with the right guidance. She will need some continued support with her recall as she’s still building confidence and focus outdoors. Myla loves her toys, especially a good game of tug of war, and playtime is a great way to bond with her. She can be a little restless in the car, so any new family should be prepared to help her feel more relaxed when travelling. With patience, kindness, and a steady routine, Myla will make a wonderfully loyal and loving companion. She’s just waiting for someone to give her the chance to blossom

Is Myla right for you?

This dog is currently being rehomed under our Homestay scheme. Under this scheme, the dog stays with their current owner until the point of adoption, when ownership transfers briefly to Dogs Trust and then to the new adopters. The benefits of Homestay for a dog are that it minimises disruption and prevents the dog having to come into kennels, however there is the potential the owner may pull out of the scheme prior to adoption. We understand the upset this may cause to potential adopters, and we work closely with owners to minimise the likelihood of this. However, it remains a possibility, and should this occur, Dogs Trust will prioritise finding adopters an alternative suitable dog.

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.

With our free behaviour support, our Canine Care …
