Small dogs in Birmingham: your questions

How many small dogs are available for adoption in Birmingham?

As of 30 September 2026, no small dogs are listed for adoption in Birmingham on LocalPetFinder. There are 5 small dogs with rescues within 25 miles, shown under "Also near Birmingham". Rescues add animals all the time, so this page fills as they list them.

Which small breeds are in rescue in Birmingham?

None of the small dogs listed in Birmingham today has a breed we group into a breed page. Breed labels on rescue listings are often a best guess, so read each profile.

How much does it cost to adopt a small dog in Birmingham?

Each rescue sets its own adoption fee. Battersea charges £230 for a dog over six months and £275 for a puppy under six months, Dogs Trust charges £300 for a puppy or adult dog in England, Wales and Scotland, and Blue Cross fees start from £235 for dogs aged 8 or over and £335 for dogs aged 1 to 7. The fee usually covers neutering, microchipping and first vaccinations, and each rescue confirms its own fee.

Are there small dogs for sale in Birmingham?

No. We don't list animals for sale. Every small dog on this page is with a rescue or rehoming centre, and rescues rehome animals for an adoption fee rather than selling them: for example, Battersea charges £230 for an adult dog and Dogs Trust £300. The fee goes towards the vet work already done, such as neutering, microchipping and first vaccinations. In England, Lucy's Law has meant since 6 April 2020 that puppies under six months can't be sold by a third party such as a pet shop or dealer: you buy direct from the breeder or adopt from a rehoming centre.

Can I get a free small dog in Birmingham, or one under £500?

Usually not. UK rescues normally ask for an adoption fee, which pays towards neutering, microchipping and vaccinations. Many rescue fees are under £500: Battersea charges £230 for a dog over six months, Dogs Trust £300, and Blue Cross from £235 for dogs aged 8 or over. An animal offered "free to good home" is a private advert, not a rescue. All dogs in the UK must be microchipped by 8 weeks old, and in England, Wales and Scotland a dog can't pass to a new keeper until it is chipped, so ask to see the microchip details.

Is there a small dog rescue near me in Birmingham?

This page lists every small dog with the rescues we list in Birmingham and the places within it.
