Bubbles

Mixed Breed · Male

Just look at that beautiful face. ❤️ Meet Bubbles, an eight-year-old boy who should be enjoying the comforts of a loving home, not spending his days in a kennel wondering where his life went wrong. Bubbles came into our care alongside his brother Kayos when their owner became ill and could no longer care for them. Through no fault of his own, everything Bubbles knew was turned upside down. 💔 And sadly, kennel life is really taking its toll on him.

About Bubbles

What life with Bubbles looks like

Bubbles is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at PAWS Animal Rescue in Cork.

An 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 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 Bubbles, answered.

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