This weekend, as London gears up for Megacon Live, one of the biggest celebrations of comic book and anime culture, Battersea is sharing details of two rescue dogs currently in their care, each with their own unique ‘superhero’ traits and looking for owners to go on adventures with
While thousands of fans embrace their own favourite characters, these dogs are ready to take inspiration from the heroes and heroines of Megacon and find the perfect human partner to help them soar to new heights.
Ron and Pearl are searching for their superhuman to join them in a lifetime of antics. Whether you’re after a playmate for outdoor excursions, a companion to curl up with at the end of a long day, or a loyal friend to share life’s ups and downs, one of these amazing dogs could be your perfect match.
Ron: The Three-Legged Wonder
Ron (pictured above), a three-year-old greyhound who’s got heart in spades. Despite losing a leg, Ron’s zest for life remains unshaken. His superpower? Lots of love and the ability to keep going no matter the odds. Ron may take life at a slightly slower pace these days, but he’s still a playful, affectionate boy who’s ready to be your companion through thick and thin.
Ron’s ideal sidekick would be someone patient and understanding, as he’s still getting used to life with three legs. But with his calm, loving nature and strong bond with his favourite humans, Ron will make a wonderful a family member. He may be a little unsure at times, but his gentle soul is just waiting for the right person to help him thrive.
Pearl: The Empathic Healer
Meet Pearl, a nine-year-old French Bulldog with a heart as big as her personality. Pearl’s superpower? She’s a master of comfort, with the ability to offer the perfect cuddle when you need it most. Whether you’re feeling under the weather, need a little extra warmth, or simply want someone to curl up with, Pearl is always ready to provide the ultimate snuggle. Her calming presence and unconditional affection make her the ideal sidekick for anyone who loves a quiet, loving companion by their side.
Pearl is looking for a home where she can feel safe and loved, and in return, she’ll offer you her deep, unwavering affection. Her sensitive nature means she needs a patient, understanding family who can help her adjust to her new surroundings, but once she’s settled, Pearl will be your constant, comforting companion, always there to provide emotional warmth and love.
Rebecca Verne, Centre Manager at Battersea, said: “At Battersea, we believe every dog deserves a second chance to find their perfect match, and these two remarkable dogs are ready to be someone’s superhero sidekick. Whether you’re looking for a heartwarming companion like Ron, or a calming presence like Pearl, each of them has a unique power to offer. We’re excited to help them find families who will cherish their special qualities and join them on their next adventure.”
