More about Betty
Meet our adorable Betty, a girl with a heart almost as big as her body! She is a young Cane Corso mastiff type who loves to clown around, dig in our sand pit and play with her toys. Her unique colouring makes her a real beauty queen who turns heads out and about.
Betty is a larger lady who despite her size, is still a juvenile dog in terms of her behaviours. She loves people and does like to play with other dogs, but can vocal in her play and too much for some dogs. This lovely girl will benefit from owners who understand the mastiff breed and their breed traits and who can physically manage a larger dog and the socialising that comes with them. Betty loves her food, which is helpful for her training! She can understandably be uncomfortable around people if they touch her or interact her while she is eating, so her new owners will need to be sympathetic and savvy to this, ensuring she has designated quiet areas for meal times or if she has a chew.
Betty will need a home with a private garden where she can burn off her energy - bonus if her owners are able to provide with a child's sand pit to play in! She will need easy access to green walking spaces and could live in a home with teenagers.
We ask every customer to first complete our online form before we discuss an individual animal, 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/rehoming
If you have already completed our online rehoming form and would like to know more about our wiggly girl, you can e-mail our rehoming team on bbh.rehomers@battersea.org.uk to register your interest.
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 you have contacted us about.
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.
