BENTO

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

BENTO Male • Tripaw • DOB February 2025 Neutered • Fully vaccinated • Microchipped • Brucella tested Bento was brought to our clinic by a local after surviving a horrific traffic accident. His front leg had suffered a severe, long‑neglected fracture, and by the time he reached us the wound was badly infected and infested with maggots. With intensive nursing care, treatment, and rehabilitation, Bento slowly began to heal. Although he has recovered from the trauma, the toes on his left front paw were lost. As he grew into adulthood and gained weight, he became unable to use that left front leg. This shifted all his weight onto his right front leg, which has developed a curvature and slight deformity However his disability does not stop him from living a joyful, active life. He will only be able to go on short walks. Bento can run, play, explore, and interact happily with people and other dogs. He is loving, calm, gentle, and incredibly friendly. He enjoys human touch and companionship an

About BENTO

What life with BENTO looks like

BENTO is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Nowzad in United Kingdom.

An 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 BENTO, answered.

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