More about Maple
Meet our sweet little Maple!
Maple arrived at Battersea as a stray, so little is known about her past. She’s a friendly, clever girl who loves making new friends and absolutely adores being the centre of attention!
Maple has a real zest for life! She is playful, keen to learn and loves climbing on anything she can find. She’s a true foodie who is happy to work for her treats, and she’s quick to pick up new tricks!
Maple struggles with being alone, so she’s looking for a multi-carer family to stagger her time alone and help build her indepence. She can also be a little worried during handling, so patient owners who let her take things at her own pace are a must.
Maple can be vocal towards other dogs and will need continuous confidence building, so she’s looking for owners with previous experience of anxious or reactive dogs who are confident in managing her training. She would need to be the only pet in the home and would suit a home with teenagers who can respect her space.
Maple could live in any location with access to quieter walking routes where she could practice her training. A private garden would be desirable, but isn’t essential.
If you’re looking for a clever, affectionate girl to train and adventure with, Maple could be your perfect match!
If you have already completed our online rehoming form and would like to know more about Maple, you can e-mail our rehoming team on rehoming@battersea.org.uk to register your interest.
We ask every customer to first complete our online form before we discuss an individual dog, 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.
