More about Nutmeg
Nutmeg is ready to add a little spice to your life! This sweet young girl may need some time to find her feet in the big wide world as she has found the big wide world a little overwhelming at times, but once she feels safe and settled, her playful personality really starts to shine.
Nutmeg can be worried at first but soon shows her friendly side making friends quickly with calm, kind people and loves gentle fuss and tasty treats. She’s also a big fan of her doggy friends and can be playful and bouncy when she feels comfortable. A confident, mature and patient neutered canine companion could be just the recipe for helping Nutmeg’s confidence blossom. She also enjoys soft toys and would love plenty of positive, reward-based activities to keep her busy.
Nutmeg is looking for patient adopters who can give her time to settle into home life at her own pace. She’ll need a quiet home with her own secure private garden and access to peaceful green spaces away from busy roads and noisy areas. Her new family should be prepared to start slowly, initially using the garden while she gets to know them, before building up to short, positive walks as her confidence grows. She’ll need some help with housetraining and recall, and someone around for most of the initial settling-in period. Nutmeg could live with sensible children aged 8+ and may be able to live with a suitable cat or small animal following careful introductions. With patience, understanding and plenty of encouragement, we think this lovely girl will have plenty of confidence to sprinkle around her new home.
If you have already completed our online rehoming form and would like to know more about Nutmeg, 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.
