Dash

Border Collie · Male · Young · 2 years

Dash is a 2 year old neutered Sable and White shorted coated Border Collie Cross. He came into our care from a rescue in Ireland but we have no other history on him. Dash is a friendly boy but lacks confidence in every day life and gets anxious out on walks as he struggles to cope in busy environments. He will require a more rural home where he can be introduced to the outside world gradually so he doesn't get too overwhelmed.HOMING FEE £390

About Dash

What life with Dash looks like

Dash is a young adult border collie dog waiting at Border Collie Trust GB in United Kingdom.

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 Dash, answered.

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