More about Renzo

Meet Renzo! Our lovely little Jackahuahua cross.
Renzo arrived at Battersea a stray so we have no history on him or how he is in a home.

He is a sweet lad who has no issues making friends and has won everyone over with his affectionate and cheeky personality.
He does have a sensitive side when it comes to handling so will need owners who are willing to work on making him more comfortable, especially when it comes to visiting the vets! As he is still a young boy, new owners should be committed to his basic training in order to set him up for success and ensure he blossoms into a well rounded adult.

Renzo can be reactive towards other dogs but has been very responsive to training while in our care and has shown that he can make friends, but will need ongoing confidence building and training in this area. For this reason he will need to be the only pet in the home, with owners confident in socialising him in neutral spaces.

Renzo is looking for a home away from the inner city with access to his own private garden. He can live with teens 13 + who can help with his daily maintenance and training.

He is a wonderful boy with a lot of love to give and will no doubt bring new owners endless amounts of joy and entertainment.

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