Mixed Breed · Unknown

Happy birthday to The Rescue Hotel! Did you hear? We turned six today and we could not be prouder of what we have achieved so far. From a small bunch of volunteers coming together with a dream, The Rescue Hotel has grown into something we never imagined. We’re absolutely chuffed with everything we’ve achieved and we think we’ve done a pretty good job so far. From getting our dogs into all the coolest music venues, funding lifesaving surgeries, to successfully raising over £500,000 to refurbish the outdated kennels at Cardiff Dogs Home. You could say we have been busy, but every day we are reminded of who we are doing it for and that’s these guys. Every day we show up to help the dogs who need it most but none of this would be possible without our wonderful supporters. We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to each and every one of you. Thanks to your generosity and continuous support, we’re able to keep making a difference to the lives of dogs who need it most. We cannot wait share with you all of the exciting things we have planned.

About 6 Years

What life with 6 Years looks like

6 Years is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Cardiff Dogs Home / The Rescue Hotel.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇬🇧Adopting from United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

Frequently asked

Adopting 6 Years, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about 6 Years?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Cardiff Dogs Home / The Rescue Hotel handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw 6 Years on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt 6 Years if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Cardiff Dogs Home / The Rescue Hotel will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is 6 Years already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if 6 Years isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Cardiff Dogs Home / The Rescue Hotel early rather than rehoming privately; they know 6 Years and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
