How do I contact the shelter about Clover?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dogs Trust Manchester handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Clover on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Clover if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dogs Trust Manchester 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 Clover 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 Clover 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 Manchester early rather than rehoming privately; they know Clover 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.

Clover

Labrador Retriever · Female · Young · 2 years

Clover is a sweet, affectionate 2 year old Labrador with a heart full of love and a playful side that is sure to make you smile. Since moving into foster, she has settled beautifully and amazed us all with how quickly she has built her confidence and excelled in her training. She can often be found sunbathing or playing with toys in the garden, snoozing on the sofa, or splashing around in her favourite water games. Although Clover can be a little worried by new experiences, she is making fantastic progress and shows just how willing she is to learn. She’s clever, food-motivated, and enjoys enrichment activities that keep her busy. With patience and encouragement, her confidence continues to grow every day. She is a really affectionate girl and greets everybody with a waggy tail and loves to cuddle up to her favourite people. Clover is looking for a patient, understanding family who are home most of the time and will help her explore the world at her own pace. In return, she’ll reward you with endless affection, loyal companionship, and plenty of laughter. Clover is currently in one of our foster homes and so isn't at the centre. Clover is a gorgeous girl looking for patient, understanding adopters who are committed to continuing her training and helping her build confidence at her own pace. She is looking for a calm environment where she can settle in gradually and will need 0 leaving hours due to her severe separation anxiety. Clover has always slept in the bedroom and would benefit from maintaining this routine in her new home. Clover will need her walks building up gradually as she hasn't been walked much previously. She is getting to know the big world around her and does love to go on adventures however she is quite anxious and reactive towards other dogs and very strong on lead. Adopters will need to be comfortable with continued training in this area and also her strength on lead. She would love walks in quiet areas and her own private, secure garden where she can decompress in peace. Clover is seeking a home where she is the only dog. She can live with children of upper primary school age and above, although walks should be handled by adults. Clover cannot live with cats but may share a home with small furries if they are kept separate.

About Clover

What life with Clover looks like

Clover is a large young adult labrador retriever dog waiting at Dogs Trust Manchester in Manchester.

An young 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 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.
