Bobby

Mixed Breed · Male

Lovely Bobby has sadly found himself looking for a new home after his owner passed away. Bobby is larger than your typical Bichon and is a friendly boy who enjoys company. He has only ever lived with adults and isn’t used to children, so we’d be looking for an adult home where he can settle into a familiar kind of environment. He is good with other dogs but cannot live with cats. Bobby particularly enjoys having people around and isn’t keen on being left alone, so his ideal home will be with someone who can offer him plenty of company and help him settle gradually into his new life. When Bobby arrived with us, his coat was quite badly matted and unfortunately had to be completely clipped back. Don’t worry – his fluffy locks will grow back, and we’re sure he’ll look very different once they do! After losing his owner and everything familiar to him, Bobby now needs a loving, secure home where he can enjoy plenty of companionship and start the next chapter of his life. Could you give Bobby the home and company he’s looking for? (01925) 748638Contact Us HERESlutchers Lane – Warrington – WA1 1NA All animal meetings by appointment only.

About Bobby

What life with Bobby looks like

Bobby is an adult mixed breed dog waiting at Warrington Animal Welfare in Warrington.

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 Bobby, answered.

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