More about Joe
Joe is a wonderful Greyhound with a delightful personality and a charm that naturally draws people to him. He is currently based at Battersea Old Windsor.
Joe has been calm and sociable in his interactions with other dogs and has happily shared resources such as toys without any concerns. He enjoys the company of other dogs and could live alongside another dog of a similar breed, such as a fellow sighthound.
Joe has been a friendly and affectionate boy with everyone he has met so far. He will often approach people happily for a gentle fuss and some attention. He has a playful side too and thoroughly enjoys his toys, whether he's entertaining himself in his kennel or joining in a game with his handlers. Toy play is a wonderful way to build a bond with Joe and is sure to help his new owners become fast friends with him.
Joe would be needing to go to a home with his own secure private, so he has a safe space to use to stretch his leg and burn his energy off away from distractions. It will also be useful area to help with the housetraining routine.
Joe would make a great addition to a household, bringing lots of charm and plenty of fun. If you have already completed our online rehoming form and would like to know more about Joe, you can e-mail our rehoming team on bow.rehomers@battersea.org.uk to register your interest.
We ask every customer to first complete our online rehoming application form, 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 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.
