About Bailey

What life with Bailey looks like

Bailey is an adult border collie dog waiting at Perthshire Abandoned Dog Society in Perth.

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 Bailey, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Bailey?: Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Perthshire Abandoned Dog Society handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Bailey on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Bailey if I live in another country?: Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask Perthshire Abandoned Dog Society whether they will for Bailey, what they require (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 Bailey already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: TailHarbor has no vaccination, microchip or sterilization details for Bailey. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Perthshire Abandoned Dog Society, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Bailey isn't the right fit?: Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Perthshire Abandoned Dog Society about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bailey 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.
