More about Gizzy
Meet the lovely Gizzy!
Gizzy arrived at Battersea a stray, so sadly we have no history on her. Since arriving onsite has shown herself to be an affectionate and wiggly girl who loves nothing more than to play with toys and will often greet her people with a soft toy in her mouth and a wagging tail. She does have a little bit of a sensitive side but is growing in confidence every day and we are seeing more of her personality shine through!
Gizzy likes other dogs and is a friendly and playful girl with some good social skills in place. She could live with another dog that is tolerant and playful but who knows how to take breaks. Gizzy has shown some chase towards squirrels in the park, therefore any homes with other species would need to be carefully considered. Gizzy ideally would love a home away from the busy inner city with access to her own private, secure garden. As she can be a little worried at times feel she is best suited to live with teens 13+ who can play a role in her daily training.
Gizzy has a heart of absolute gold and so much love to give! She will make the most wonderful companion in any home lucky enough to have her!

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.
