More about Teddy Bear

Teddy is a young Pomeranian cross who has shown himself to be a real lap dog as well as a sensitive soul. He has been very tolerant of all handling, including grooming which he will need regularly due to his breed. He is a smart boy who loves foodie puzzle games.. or just food in general! If you have snacks be prepared for those big beautiful eyes to be seeking you out, waiting for you to offer them so he can take them politely and show off his lovely manners.

He can be vocal around new people initially, but is keen to make friends if he is allowed to take his time. He enjoys going for short walks with his dog friends here onsite, but does not enjoy prolonged interactions with them such as going offlead. Due to this we are recommending that he stay onlead when in public and so would benefit from his own secure garden for offlead time.

He is looking to be the only dog in the household, however could potentially live with a confident cat. He is looking to live with people who can read and respect his body language and give him space when he needs it, so would be best suited to live with teens.

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.
