More about Luna
Meet Junie our little Patterdale cross whose tail doesn't stop wagging.
Junie is a confident and friendly girl who loves nothing more than meeting new people. She will wag her tail constantly to begin with and enjoys some gentle fuss and attention.
She loves her food and will take it gently, offering a sit straight away to receive a treat. Junie is a busy and active dog so will require lots of mental and physical stimulation. She would benefit from going on varied walks to green spaces so she can explore and loves getting her nose to the ground and sniffing out new smells. She is looking for a home with a secure private garden to allow her the opportunity for off-lead enrichment.
Junie has shown to be friendly with the dogs she has met here at Old Windsor, but she can get worried if a dog gets too pushy or near her face. She is learning to move herself away when she is uncomfortable and is happier saying hello and then doing her own thing. Due to this, she is looking to be the only dog in her new home. New owners should carry on socialising her with calm steady dogs so she can build up her confidence and feel comfortable around them.
Junie can get excited and over enthusiastic when meeting people so would benefit from some training around this. She loves her food which can be utilised in her training.
Being a stray, she will need her time alone built up gradually. Junie has found kennel life stressful, especially when its noisy and busy and will try to dart out of the door, so may be a flight
risk when she gets into her new home. New owners can utilise stair gets to manage her around the front door and make sure the garden is completely secure.
Junie will make a lovey companion to go out and about with and explore new places.
Potential owners will need to speak with a Battersea vet prior to rehoming Junie.
If you have already completed our online rehoming form and would like to know more about Junie, 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.
