More about Bubbles
Bubbles is ready to burst into your life! This affectionate, lively Lurcher may be a little particular about her personal space when it comes to other dogs, but when it comes to people she’s full of love, enthusiasm and plenty of bounce. She’s a mature girl with a real lust for life and would love to find someone who can help her make the most of it!
Bubbles loves getting out and about and enjoys her walks, particularly when she has plenty of space to sniff and explore. Despite being an older lady, she has lots of energy and would adore regular opportunities to stretch her legs and enjoy some zoomies in a secure area. She’s a real people person who loves a fuss and knows her name, sit and paw. Bubbles can become quite excited when meeting people and may be bouncy, so her new family will need to help her practise some calmer greetings. She is also happiest around other dogs when they give her plenty of space and will let them know if they get too close, so she is looking for a home where she can enjoy being your one-and-only.
Bubbles will need a patient and understanding home with a private, secure garden, as well as owners who are happy to walk her on lead and muzzle in public. She would benefit from quieter walking routes with green spaces where she can avoid busy areas and other dogs, and her family should feel confident advocating for her space. She isn't suitable to live with other dogs, cats or small furries, and would be best suited to an adult-only home. Bubbles is house trained and has shown she can settle nicely when left, although she will need time to adjust to her new surroundings and a gradual build-up of alone time. Her new family should also continue her positive muzzle training and give her the chance to move away and decompress when she feels overwhelmed. In return, they’ll have a loving, lively and wonderfully characterful companion who is ready to enjoy her next chapter!
If you have already completed our online rehoming form and would like to know more about Bubbles, you can e-mail our rehoming team on bbh.rehomers@battersea.org.uk to register your interest.
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).
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.
