Battersea Dog Home London

We re open every day and welcome visitors to come and meet us and our animals in need of new homes.
Battersea dog home london. One of the best ways you can show your support for rescue dogs. In 2002 the name of the animal shelter was changed to battersea dogs and cats home. Battersea is now working in guildford and ashford to rehome more dogs and cats and put smiles on more faces. Rescue is our favourite breed at the moment we have fewer dogs than usual to rehome so it might take a little longer for us to find you a new pet.
Finally in 2018 the shelter rebranded again now simply calling itself battersea removing dogs and cats home from its name. However in order to keep staff and the public safe battersea has had to close all three of its centres during this period of lockdown. If you are visiting for a rehoming appointment please use our main entrance on 4 battersea park road sw8 4aa. Founded in 1860 by mrs mary tealby the shelter was initially called the temporary home for lost and starving dogs.
