More about Marmite
Meet Marmite. Our sweet and sensitive Presa Cross.
Marmite arrived at Battersea as a stray, so we sadly have no history on her or how she is in a home.
She is a loving and affectionate girl who does have a worried side and can come across a little shy. But she warms up to people quickly and once bonded loves nothing more to sit with her humans and enjoy a gentle fuss.
She needs owners with some knowledge of guarding breeds and who are willing to continue with her basic training in order to set her up for success in her new home.
Marmite likes other dogs and has some nice social skills in place, therefore she could live with another dog that is the right match for her, a tolerant and confident dog that will offer play but will also take breaks. We don't have a history on Marmite so don't know if she has ever lived with cats, but we have not seen any chase behaviour onsite, so she could possibly live with a dog savvy cat with careful introductions.
Marmite is looking for a new home away from the inner city with access to her own private garden. She is a wonderful and loving girl, but due to her worried nature, is best suited to an adults only household who can be involved with her daily training.
Marmite really is a delight and has won everyone over with her gentle and sweet nature. She will no doubt be the most loyal and loving of companions in the home.
If you have already completed our online rehoming form and would like to know more about Marmite, 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 in question.
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.
