More about Bambi (& Estee)
Say hello to Bambi and Estee!
Found as strays together, these two sweet girls have become the very best of friends. They share their kennel, follow each other around and settle beautifully side by side.
Both can be nervous in new situations, around both people and dogs, and will need patient owners to help them grow in confidence. Bambi is the quieter of the two and may hide or move away when she feels unsure, but she warms up quickly to show her super affectionate nature. Estee can be more vocal when worried, but loves attention and happily sits on her handler's lap.
With time, patience and gentle encouragement, both girls are showing their affectionate and playful sides. They could live with a calm, steady dog following careful introductions.
Their new family should have experience with nervous dogs and be prepared to carry out some of their walking and training separately, allowing each girl to build confidence at her own pace.
Bambi and Estee are looking for a new home in a quiet location, ideally with a secure garden for training and confidence building.
These gorgeous girls could live with sensible teenagers aged 13+ and potentially other calm animals that are able to give them space. Most importantly, Bambi and Estee must be rehomed together. ❤️
Could you be the patient, loving home these two best friends have been waiting for?
If you have already completed our online rehoming form and would like to know more about Bambi & Estee, you can e-mail our rehoming team on rehoming@battersea.org.uk to register your interest.
We ask every customer to first complete our online form before we discuss an individual dog, so if you have not filled in our form yet you can find the details on how to do so here https://www.battersea.org.uk/rehome/dogs
Please be aware that we have a large amount of interest in rehoming our animals, so we are only able to contact those that are a match for the dog in question
Rehoming FAQs
Here at Battersea, we assess all of our dogs individually and create a rehoming profile for them. To ensure successful matches between people and pets, we use a combination of extensive rehoming experience, our staff expertise and the information you provided in your rehoming form. Once you complete your online registration, you’ll receive a confirmation email to let you know that we have everything we need to begin our matchmaking process, as well as the next steps of the process.
This may not always be the dog you thought it would be, which is why we ask that you see the registration form as a way of registering your interest in rehoming, not an application for a specific animal. We’re experts in making sure we find the right home for our dogs and the right dog for your home.

Once you’ve completed our online registration form, we’ll handle the rest. Your rehoming registration will be open for up to three months, and in that time, we’ll do our very best to try and match you with a pet that best suits you and your lifestyle. It can take a bit of time for us to try and match you with a pet – but we promise it’s time well spent. We’re committed to getting to know every animal at our centres before finding a match that works for our dogs and for you wherever possible.
If we are not able to match you with a dog within three months, we’ll let you know and offer guidance to help you continue your search, either at Battersea or beyond.

Our rehoming fee is £230 for dogs (over six months), £350 for a pair of dogs, or £275 for puppies (under six months). We accept cash or debit/credit card as payment (we are unable to accept cheques). Included in this cost are the following:
- Microchipping
- Initial vaccinations, flea and worming treatment
- Neutering
- A collar, identification tag and lead
- Starter pack of food, advice and special offers
- Four weeks’ free Petplan insurance as your dog settles into their new surroundings
Something to bear in mind is that our rehoming fee is just the beginning of the costs involved with owning a dog. We would recommend that before making the decision to rehome, you investigate the costs of pet food, pet insurance, grooming and fees at your local veterinary centre so that you are fully prepared for the financial implications of bringing a dog into your home.
