Amanda

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 4 months

Amanda is a beautiful young puppy who was found alone in a field at just a few months old. Despite such a sad start, she is a wonderfully friendly, gentle little girl who loves people and gets on well with other dogs. She has a sweet, trusting nature and is still very much a baby, so she will need a family who can give her the time, patience and guidance every puppy needs. Amanda will need help with all the usual puppy training, including house training, lead walking, socialisation and learning how to be left for short periods. Amanda would suit a home where she will be included as part of the family and where someone is around for much of the day while she settles. She could live with another friendly dog, which may help her confidence as she grows, but she would also be happy as the centre of attention in the right home. She is likely to grow into a medium-sized dog and will need a secure private garden, regular walks, training and plenty of love. Amanda will arrive fully vaccinated and with comprehensive health checks, including a Uranotest Quattro for Leishmania infantum, Ehrlichia canis, Anaplasma and Dirofilaria immitis, a test for Canine Brucellosis, and her own Portuguese passport. Most of our dogs have been found abandoned as young pups, discarded as unwanted litters, as is often the case in Portugal where neutering is not as common as in the UK. After rescue, all of our pups spend time in private shelters and foster homes, meaning they arrive happy, healthy and well socialised. UK Registered Charity Number 1183775

About Amanda

What life with Amanda looks like

Amanda is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Dogs N Homes Rescue in London.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇬🇧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 Amanda, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Amanda?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dogs N Homes Rescue handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Amanda on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Amanda if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dogs N Homes Rescue 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 Amanda 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 Amanda 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 N Homes Rescue early rather than rehoming privately; they know Amanda 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.
