Why has Stratstone partnered with Battersea?
Animals represent a huge part of the family for many households across the UK, and so we have partnered with Battersea Dogs & Cats Home to help enhance the experience of our customers who own a pet(s).
Battersea is one of the UK’s oldest animal charities, providing love and expert care to dogs and cats at their three centres and across the world. Their expert staff work tremendously hard to educate the public about every aspect of responsible dog ownership, including transportation, through events, training courses, online pet advice, and publications.
With the support of Battersea, we are aiming to educate associates across our dealer network, helping you to make an informed decision on your next car that's right for you, and your pets.
What to expect from our dealers
Understanding Interactions
Our associates will be trained by Battersea on how to interact with your pets, by understanding their body language and behaviour.
Recognising Stress
A new environment can be stressful for some animals, so our associates will be trained on how to recognise this and help alleviate the stress.

Throughout the partnership, we will be aiming to make our Stratstone dealers more accessible for pet owners, as well as teaching our associates about the practice of responsible dog care, courtesy of Battersea.
Not only does this mean we will be able to help you find the car right for you, but we will be able to advise on one that best suits the needs of your pet.
Whether you are just browsing, getting your car serviced, or selling your current set of wheels, your dog is as welcome in every Stratstone dealer as you are.
We will also be contributing to the amazing work Battersea is already doing, by taking part in fundraising initiatives and raising awareness across our Centres.
