Here are our dogs that are ready for rehoming. This webpage is updated regularly.

All our animals who are ready for adoption are also shown on the National RSPCA “Find a Pet” website, where they have lots of free online help and support, if you are considering adopting a pet or have just taken a new animal into your home. We are always happy to give help and advice about re-homing an animal.

Dog care advice

Due to changes in the way we complete our VAT Return, as a result of VAT changes at RSPCA HQ, we are now required to clearly display any VAT in our Rehoming Fees and Rehoming Documentation.

Generally our rescue animals are free of VAT, but some which come to us for rehoming via the RSPCA Inspectorate may be liable to VAT.

In all cases, the rehoming fee will be as shown on our website and will include any VAT where applicable.

Adoption fees are non-refundable, except under exceptional circumstances at the Branch's discretion.

From 1st July 2023 our adoption fees will be £200 for adults dogs and £250 for puppies up to and including 6 months old. Any dogs currently on reserve will be honoured at the original adoption fee. The cost includes neutering, flea control treatment, vaccination against Kennel cough, micro-chipping.

Additional donations are greatly appreciated to help us to continue with our work.

The next step is to arrange for the whole family to come and meet the dog. It’s best for everyone from the household to meet the dog to rule out allergies or other issues.

We will then arrange to visit your home to discuss your new dog with you and answer any further questions you may have about rehoming. During the home visit, we can ensure the home is suitable and advise on preparing your home and garden, removing potential dangers, and buying food, bedding, and toys. We aim to carry out home visits within a week of the animal being reserved.

During the home visit, we are looking to see that:

You have a good understanding about the commitment involved in adopting your dog.

The dog will not be left alone for more than 4-5 hours a day and will get a minimum of one 30 minute walk per day, all year round.

The dog has a secure backyard or garden with fencing of a minimum of 6ft in height, although this may need to be higher depending on the size of the dog.

That you are willing to take a dog to training classes/seek help if necessary.

If you would like to offer any of our dogs a new home please call our Branch Manager Julia Tucker on 0161 286 2503 or email rspca.altrincham.cheshire@googlemail.com

Skye

Skye Skye is our sponsored dog being cared for by RSPCA Warrington branch. She is a happy, friendly girl who loves other dogs.
If you are interested in meeting Skye please contact RSPCA Warrington Branch directly.
We would like you all to meet, Stunning Skye ❤ a Husky X Shepherd. Skye is a super fun, loving girl who is young and ready to get out into the big wide world and start exploring all those exciting places. Skye loves nothing more than to be with people and play until her hearts content. During her stay with us, we have found Skye loves playing with other dogs so she could live with another dog of similar size and play style. We have also found that Skye needs teaching it’s okay to be alone so we are looking for a family who are home most of the time (or opposite shifts) so that she can learn this gradually and not become distressed during the process. She is already on the way to becoming a super clever and obedient dog, there is still plenty of room for improvement but she knows her basic commands (even with the cheeky side of testing) Skye is well behaved at the vets but is a wimp for injections so prepare yourself for her crying! She has no problems getting into cars and is happy to travel so she can enjoy even more adventures with her new family. Even though she is super friendly with everyone she meets, we are advising that Skye is rehomed to a family with older children of 8+ purely because of her boisterous nature, she may accidentally knock over a small child during her zoomies!

Lola

Lola is our sponsored dog being cared for by RSPCA Warrington branch. She's had a rough start in life and really deserves a loving home.
If you are interested in meeting Skye please contact RSPCA Warrington Branch directly.
She was neglected by her previous owner. Being treated in this way by her previous family made Lola really sad and it took her a really long time to trust people again 🙁 But thankfully, Lola pushed on through and learnt how to enjoy the love of humans again. She has had a long road to recovery after she was dealing with being underweight, a skin condition caused by fleas, sore ears and then a tummy upset. She is finally fighting fit again! Lola is looking for a family who have had experience with Shar-peis in the past and understand their traits. She is an active girl who really enjoys being out and about for hours on end but also loves the comfort of a sofa. Lola is housetrained and is clean in her kennel, but she may just need a bit of guidance when she moves into her forever home. She enjoys walking and doesn't mind walking with other dogs providing they don't get in her face. We have been taking her walking with our other dogs at the centre and she is quite happy & content to do this as long as she has her own space. Lola is a clever girl who enjoys human company but isn't the touchy feely type and will walk away when she has had enough, playing with toys, traveling and is even good for the vet (she can just be a little nervous) Lola is also good around new people with the correct approach (Food!) Do you have space in your heart for our lovely Lola to have her second chance of happiness?

Loki

Lokiis a male Staffordshire Bull Terrier crossbreed who will be 2 years old in September . He is medium size and most likely crossed with a lurcher type dog as he has a slim build . He has come into our care from the inspectors having been neglected , underweight and living in dirty conditions .
Loki can sometimes be a little nervous upon meeting new people but it won't take him long to come round . He is very food motivated and his love of a tasty treat will certainly help with training and initial meet and greets. Once he knows you and is more relaxed , he is a friendly bouncy boy with a waggy tail who is extremely affectionate and adores fuss, cuddles and being close to people .He does understand basic commands and takes treats very gently . Loki walks nicely on the lead . He can be a little barky when coming across other dogs but there are times when he doesn't appear too fussed either . He loves toys and travels well in the car . He might need some help with housetraining . Loki is to be rehomed as an only dog . He could possibly live with children of secondary school age
