Bruno

I'm looking for my forever home. Could you be my perfect match?

Are you right for Bruno?

Bruno is a gorgeous 1-year-old crossbreed who has all the energy and enthusiasm you would expect from a young lad still discovering the world. He is gentle, friendly, and bouncy, and absolutely loves people and dogs alike. His foster carers say that he is a sweet and bouncy boy who loves nothing more than a good park adventure before coming home for a well-earned snuggle on the couch. Bruno is great fun to take out for a walk. he loves exploring parks and open spaces, sniffing out every scent along the way, and is always delighted when he gets to say hello to a dog or a friendly passer-by. Back home he is equally happy throwing his toys around for himself, having zoomies in the garden with a ball or frisbee, or settling down for a chew. He is a clever boy who already knows several cues including sit, lie down, and drop it, and for a young lad still finding his feet he is already fully housetrained which is no small thing! Bruno is still very much a puppy at heart who is learning about the world and working hard on his manners, and the right family will find him an incredibly rewarding dog to grow with. He will need a secure garden of his own and a family who can be around with him while he gradually gets used to time alone. Bruno would be happiest as the only pet where cats are concerned, but could share his home with a calm dog who can show him the ropes. Primary school aged children and above who are comfortable around an enthusiastic young dog would suit him well. Could you be the family to help this sweet, bouncy boy flourish? AWE licence number 13090 by West Lothian Council.

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.
