Bella & Milo

Bichon Frisé · Female · Senior · 10 years

Bella and Milo entered our care through our social rehoming scheme after their owner could sadly no longer continue to care for them. After spending time in our care, they are now ready to find themselves their new home! Bella and Milo are a beautiful duo who are bonded and are looking for a loving new home together. These two really are the best of both worlds, playful, affectionate and happiest when they’re surrounded by their favourite people! Bella is the sweetest girl who is full of love and curiosity! She loves spending time with Milo, and he loves nothing more than being by her side! Milo is a very happy boy who has a charming personality, he loves playing with his toys, going on walks and having a good sniff, exploring all his surroundings! They both love to cuddle up together or spend time with our staff and volunteers here at the centre. Bella and Milo are real people-loving dogs, they would love a home where someone is around for a good part of the day to begin with and to help them settle in. They could live with children over 8 years who are used to dogs and allow them space when needed. Bella has had a history of skin issues which does not currently need any mediation. It is unknown how they would react around cats and other dogs in the home.

About Bella & Milo

What life with Bella & Milo looks like

Bella & Milo is a senior bichon frisé dog waiting at USPCA.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇮🇪Adopting from Ireland

Irish shelters require a home check (often phone or video) and an adoption contract. Animals are vaccinated, chipped, and registered. Cross-border placements to mainland Europe require the rabies titer test (TRACES system).

Frequently asked

Adopting Bella & Milo, answered.

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