Buzz

Male · Adult · 4 years

Everyone meet our next residents … Mimi and Buzz!❤️‍🩹 Mimi is a female shihtzu who is 4 years old. Sadly she was adopted a few years ago and returned due to owner’s sudden decline in health. Buzz who’s 10 years old is her best friend who the adopter had before Mimi. However their bond is amazing.🥰 Sadly the adopter isn’t able to meet their needs anymore and it was only right that we rehome them together. 🏡🤞 They are both super friendly dogs and are doing great in their foster home. They are great with dogs, cats and other animals too!🐶🐾 These guys love their little walks and enjoying starting a routine again, sadly hasn’t happened for a while. Both dogs welcome visitors with open arms and could live with dog savvy children. 😘 At the vets, we restarted their vaccinations, been flead and wormed. Both dogs were already microchipped and neutered. Buzz did come in with a nasty ear infection in both ears and has a medium graded heart murmur but doesn’t need meds. ✔️ Mimi and Buzz have both come back over weight. However with them enjoying their walks, this is coming off well. 🐾🐾 These guys both have impaired vision. Mimi was born with hers and it’s only slight. However Buzz is completely blind in one eye and has cataracts in the other, this doesn’t bother him at all. We have a feeling that’s why they are so close. They help each other. Reminder - currently these guys aren’t needing any medications, apart from ear drops for Buzz.❤️‍🩹 So due to the above we are looking for a special home for these pair. We are going to put them as forever fosters, meaning we will cover their vet bills for life, if someone will home them together. As they are best friends and we really don’t want to have spilt them up. 🏡 Please share them far and wide so they can find their forever home!🙏🏼 Remember to complete the form below if you’re interested in offering them a home;

About Buzz

What life with Buzz looks like

Buzz is a medium-sized adult dog waiting at Almost Home Dog Rescue in North Wales.

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 Buzz, answered.

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