Buddy Boris

Pug · Male · Adult · 6 years

Buddy Boris loves his walks, which is helpful as he needs to shed a few pounds, but nothing stops him when it comes to sniffing and exploring a new area. He likes meeting other dogs when out and about, but can sometimes be a bit exciteable, so will benefit from having social doggy friends who are confident enough to correct him and teach him some manners. Buddy Boris is already housetrained, but would prefer owners who are around most of the time at first, to help him settle into the home. When meeting new people Buddy Boris will say a polite hello, preferring to sniff the area first before coming for a cwtch. Buddy Boris is a 6 year old Pug x Jack Russell Terrier with bags of personality. This gorgeous boy is looking for a reasonably busy home where he can keep up his social life and snooze away the evenings on a comfy sofa. He could potentially live with another dog, pending a successful meet at our centre, but he can be quite excitable, so a confident dog would be best. Buddy Boris is a very sweet boy and could also live with older primary school aged children.

About Buddy Boris

What life with Buddy Boris looks like

Buddy Boris is an adult pug dog waiting at Dogs Trust Bridgend in Mid Glamorgan.

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 Buddy Boris, answered.

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