Reya is a 1 year 11month old Beagle who is looking for a home to call her own. She would like an active family who can keep her mentally and physically busy to avoid her becoming bored. She could live with children of older primary school age who are used to big bouncy dogs who can jump up when excited. She will need help learning the basics and may need housetraining, she walks nicely on lead and really enjoys the opportunity to sniff an explore. Reya can be a bit of an escape artist when it comes to enclosed spaces so she will need a secure garden with at least 6ft (preferably higher) and she should be monitored when playing in the garden. Once settled, Reya could have leaving hours introduced at a pace she is comfortable with. Reya is awaiting a minor operation on her paw and would like a home who can help her with her recovery.

Is Reya right for you?

Reya came into us with very little information except she was found following escaping the garden in her previous home. It will be important for her to have a secure garden and to be monitored when she is off lead; we would advise keeping her on a longline in the garden initially to help identify any "escape routes" she may sniff out! She is a sweet girl who has been friendly with everyone she has met at the centre and she has been happy to walk with other dogs. She enjoys her walks and opportunities to sniff and explore so a home with access to lots of interesting walks would be ideal. Being a young Beagle, Reya will need to be kept active and given outlets for her energy, some food enrichment or find it games to keep her mind busy and make food time fun would be ideal as she loves to sniff things out! Please note that you won’t be applying for a specific dog, but you can tell us what type of dog you’re looking for. You can also add up to four favourites to your application to give us an idea of the dogs you like, so we can consider you for similar dogs. Once you’ve submitted your application, we can’t change or update your favourites. Adding a dog to your application is not a reservation but a guide for us to find you a match.

We’ll keep your application open for three months and keep looking for a match

You won't need to do anything else or apply again for three months. We’ll keep reviewing your application against all the dogs at your chosen centre.

We’ll contact you as soon as we find a good match.

If for some reason we don’t find the right dog in that time, you can reapply, and we’ll keep looking.

If we’ve found a dog who seems right for you, we’ll invite you to come and meet them at the rehoming centre.

Some of the dogs in our care will need to meet potential owners several times to get to know one another. This lets us see you’re compatible and gives you the chance to build a bond before making a commitment to give them a new home. By taking some time at the beginning to make sure everyone’s comfortable, an adoption is more likely to be successful.

We may also arrange a home visit with you, to see how your house will be set up and check that the garden (if you have one) is secure. This may not be necessary, though, especially if you’ve adopted from us before. Where you already have dogs, we may accept a reference from your vet as an alternative.

If we haven’t found the right match, we’ll continue the search together

If we haven’t found the right dog for you within three months, we’ll let you know your application is closed. We’ll invite you to apply again so we have up-to-date information about you, and we’ll keep looking.

We’ll support you to embark on a new life with your dog

When we’ve matched you with a dog, we’ll help you welcome them to your home. After adoption we’ll keep in touch to see how you and the dog are doing. If you need any advice or support, we’re just a phone call away.
