Cinnamon Bun

Shih Tzu · Female · Young · 1 year

Cinnamon Bun and her sister Midnyte Star the best of friends and we're looking for a home where they can stay together. Cinnamon is the more cuddly one of the pair but both are happy to join you on the sofa for a snuggle. They're always happy to see their foster carer and get very excited when visitors call, Cinnamon sometimes getting a little nippy with her giddiness! Both girls settle nicely once the visitor is seated and they're very happy to sit with them if invited. Cinnamon Bun is looking for a home together with her sister Midnyte Star. They can live with other calm dogs and children of upper primary age. Both are house trained and have been good when left alone, although they would benefit from having any solo time built up gradually. Please consider the cost of regular professional grooming for two dogs if considering application.

About Cinnamon Bun

What life with Cinnamon Bun looks like

Cinnamon Bun is a young adult shih tzu dog waiting at Dogs Trust Merseyside in Liverpool.

A young 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 Cinnamon Bun, answered.

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