Brian

Cane Corso · Male · Young · 3 years

Brian is full of beans and could happily play with toys for hours on end! This clever, gentle foodie is a big, silly sweetheart with a larger-than-life personality. Brian would love nothing more than heading off on adventures and exploring new places by your side. If you're looking for a loyal best friend who will make you laugh every day, fill your home with fun, and bring plenty of love along the way, add Brian to your favourites today. He can't wait to meet his forever family. Meet Brian, our charismatic 3-year-old Cane Corso who's guaranteed to bring a smile to your face. Brian adores his human friends and is happiest when he's included in whatever they're doing, especially if there's a game of fetch or tug on offer! Brian could live with children of secondary school age and above. Although he needs to be the only pet in the home, he enjoys spending time with other dogs on walks and can be let off lead with suitable canine companions. Brian is looking for adopters who are happy to take the time to learn about his routine and embrace his one-of-a-kind personality. He wears a muzzle on walks and during veterinary visits to help him feel safe, and this routine will need to continue in his new home. Don't worry though – our team will provide plenty of support and guidance after adoption to help Brian and his new family settle in together. If you're looking for a loyal, playful companion with bags of personality, Brian could be the perfect addition to your family.

About Brian

What life with Brian looks like

Brian is a large young adult cane corso dog waiting at Dogs Trust Shrewsbury in Telford.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Brian, answered.

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