Cher Bear

Greyhound · Unknown · Senior · 22 years

It is with a very heavy heart that I have to inform you that my beautiful Cher Bear (Freedom Cher DOB 9/1/2004) today crossed the Rainbow Bridge to the rabbit filled Elysian Fields. A bright, beautiful bouncy characterful girlie she was unfortunately diagnosed in July with a malignant carcinoma but it was not until recently […]

About Cher Bear

What life with Cher Bear looks like

Cher Bear is a senior greyhound dog waiting at Fen Bank Greyhound Sanctuary in Friskney.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇬🇧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 Cher Bear, answered.

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