More about Rafael

Meet our busy, bilingual boy Rafael!

Rafael is a young spaniel, who has a real zest for life! He is incredibly smart, knowing commands in two languages, English and Portuguese. Being a typical spaniel boy, he loves to keep busy by following scents, chasing tennis balls and having a run around with his friends.

Rafael is looking for owners who have knowledge or some experience with the spaniel breed. While with us, Rafael has shown signs of typical kennel stress but has been lovely to look after. His latest behaviours in kennels also indicate separation anxiety, which was present in his history. For this reason, we are looking for a multiple carer home for this sweet boy to help manage this.

Rafael is looking for a home in any location with access to his own private garden. He could live with another dog that is the right match for him and children of school age and above.

If you have already completed our online rehoming form and would like to know more about Rafael, 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.
