Boogie

Female · Adult · 8 years

Boogie is a lovely Dachshund who absolutely loves her food and enjoys nothing more than spending quality time with the people she knows and loves. She enjoys going for walks, particularly having the freedom to potter around, sniff and explore her surroundings at her own pace. Boogie is also happy to meet other dogs and can enjoy walking alongside them without needing constant interaction, making her a lovely companion for relaxed walks with doggy friends. Boogie will make for a wonderful companion, due to her mix of being people-oriented and happy to enjoy life at her own pace! Meet Boogie, an 8-year-old Dachshund. She is currently living with one of our foster carers, and she's loving life in a home. Boogie could live with a calm dog, pending meets at the centre, and if they can be separated during feeding times or when she has high-value items. She is suitable to live with older primary-aged children. Above all, Boogie is looking for a home that will allow her to enjoy life at her own pace and appreciate her for the lovely, independent Dachshund she is.

About Boogie

What life with Boogie looks like

Boogie is a adult dog waiting at Dogs Trust Harefield in Harefield.

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 Boogie, answered.

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