More about Bailey

Meet little Solo, a friendly and affectionate Chihuahua cross who has quickly shown his confident and loving personality since arriving with us. Although he was a little worried when he first came into our care, Solo has settled in brilliantly. He absolutely loves human company, enjoys plenty of gentle fuss and attention, and is happiest curled up on your lap after a nice walk.

Solo came into Battersea alongside several other dogs and has mixed well with them, he would happily be rehomed with his current kennel mate Indi, though this isn’t essential. He is not looking to live with any other dogs, besides Indi, as he has shown jealousy around his people towards other dogs.

He has also shown himself to be comfortable around people and handling, making friends easily once he has had a little time to settle into new surroundings.

This sweet little lad would be best suited to a quieter home in a more residential area, where his new owners can continue to build his confidence gradually and introduce him to busier environments at his own pace. He enjoys his walks and exploring outdoors, but is equally happy relaxing at home with his favourite people nearby.

Solo could live with teenagers, and potentially younger calm children with sensible supervision. He may also be able to share his home with a calm, independent cat. As he loves company so much, his new owners will need to be around for most of the day initially and gradually build up any time spent alone to help him settle happily into home life.

If you have already completed our online rehoming form and would like to know more about Solo, you can e-mail our rehoming team on rehoming@battersea.org.uk to register your interest.
