Coco & Teddy

Dachshund · Female

Coco & Teddy – West Sussex/ Surrey border – near Guilford/Horsham Coco Female 5 years choc & dapple tan, smooth mini (5.5kg) Not spayed Teddy Male 9 years choc tan, smooth mini (6kg) Not neutered Adoption fee £650 Coco & Teddy are a beautiful bonded pair who have spent their lives together. They adore one another, play well together and can often be found snuggled up close. Both dogs are ex-breeding dogs. Coco has had 3 litters and is very loving, loyal girl who loves to play fetch. Teddy can become very stressed when he is on his own, but with Coco by his side, he is much happier. They are deeply bonded. Teddy is the shy one but with Coco’s help, he is coming out of his shell. They have gentle, affectionate nature and a playful side that comes alive the moment toys appear. They also enjoy their walks and love meeting new canine friends. Together, they are a joy to be around. They are gentle, loving and fun, and make wonderful companions. They are looking for a new home because due to a change in circumstances, their owner can no longer keep them together. Coco & Teddy would love a home with a garden giving them space to potter, relax and enjoy their days together. They are used to children and have always been friendly with them, so they could happily live with dog‑savvy children aged eight and over. They may also be able to live with another canine companion following a successful meet (any dogs must be neutered/spayed). Coco & Teddy will be a wonderful addition to a family who can offer them the affection, attention and closeness they thrive on. Requirements in a home: A home with a garden. Can live with cats, provided introductions and interactions are supervised Can potentially live with other dogs pending a successful meet. For more information, please email

About Coco & Teddy

What life with Coco & Teddy looks like

Coco & Teddy is a dachshund dog waiting at The Red Foundation in Pentlow Street.

A 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 Coco & Teddy, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Coco & Teddy?
Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. The Red Foundation handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Coco & Teddy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Coco & Teddy if I live in another country?
Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask The Red Foundation whether they will for Coco & Teddy, what they require (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 Coco & Teddy already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
The Red Foundation lists Coco & Teddy as not yet spayed. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by The Red Foundation, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Coco & Teddy isn't the right fit?
Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask The Red Foundation about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Coco & Teddy 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.
