Acorn

Yorkshire Terrier · Female · Young · 3 years

Acorn's home history is unknown so she'll appreciate being introduced to the basics, such as housetraining and travelling in a car. Acorn settles nicely when left alone here at the centre so should be ok with this in her new home for a few hours when needed. Acorn eats her food well and is very polite when it comes to accepting a tasty treat so any training required should be picked up in no time! Acorn is an approximately 3yr old Yorkie cross who has come into us as a stray. She is a sweet but sensitive lady so is best suited to an adult only home but could live another calm dog pending a successful mix in centre prior to adoption. Although we have no history of Acorn around cats, she does have potential to share her new home with them following a scent swap and gradual introductions in the home.

About Acorn

What life with Acorn looks like

Acorn is a young adult yorkshire terrier dog waiting at Dogs Trust Evesham in Evesham.

A young 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 Acorn, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Acorn?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dogs Trust Evesham handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Acorn on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Acorn if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dogs Trust Evesham 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Acorn 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 Acorn 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 Dogs Trust Evesham early rather than rehoming privately; they know Acorn 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.
