More about Mini Millie
Stunning blue brindle beauty Mini Millie is a real sweetheart who thrives on the company of people. She bounces around our paddocks like a little spring lamb and likes to shake her favourite soft toy from time to time. Her pictures make her look much bigger than she is and in fact this petite comes in under 10kg
Mini Millie does have a sensitive side and was wary of people entering her space in her previous home. She will need new owners who are prepared to follow all our advice and manage Mini Millie in such a way so that she feels at ease and supported in her new home. Mini Millie has previously lived in a home and has spent some time on foster. We have seen that Mini Millie can be unsure around other dogs and therefore is looking to be the only pet in the home and is not suited to live with either dogs or cats. Our rehoming team will give any new owners advice and guidance on how to support her best around dogs.
Mini Millie, does have some medical needs that any future home will need to support her with, our clinical team will discuss these with any potential new owners.
This sweet girl is not overly tactile and although she loves company, she can find hands on attention a bit much sometimes. She will need owners who can support her with her handling in a formal setting (such as veterinary care) and those who understand that less is more, and that she should be allowed to come over to people in her own time rather than be fawned over. Mini Millie will need new owners who have lower leaving hours and who are in a position to build up the time she is left slowly and positively. Mini Millie has tried very hard to keep her kennel nice and clean during her time with us and has continued to demonstrate this on foster, so she will need her own garden. She could live with teenagers, pending introductions on site.
Her foster carers enjoy her charismatic and endearing character and have enjoyed supporting her and her behaviours while she is with them on foster, they have found that she loves a potter in the garden on warmer days and enjoys exploring in open spaces when its cool enough to do so, she has been housetrained while on foster also.
If you have already completed our online rehoming form and would like to know more about this gorgeous little lady, you can e-mail our rehoming team on bbh.rehomers@battersea.org.uk to register your interest.
We ask every customer to first complete our online form before we discuss an individual animal, 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/rehoming
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.
