Dollie

Female · Young · 1 year

Dollie can be quite bouncy and get a bit grabby when very excited, so it would be really beneficial for her to have a secure garden where she can run around and let off some steam easily! Because she gets very excited she may be a bit intense for young children, but could live with older, sensible kids. She is a pleasure to take on walks and is polite with other dogs she meets! Because she has a strong prey drive Dollie won’t be able to live with small furies like rabbits. If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate girl to go on adventures with followed by a snuggle add Dollie to your favourites! This super sweet and friendly girl is Dollie! She is a 1 yr old Lurcher Cross who loves to play, especially fetch and tug of war. She adores people and is always excited to greet you with lots of bounces! Dollie is looking for a home with adopters who can initially be around 24/7 as she really struggles with being left alone. This will help Dollie settle in easier, once she feels a little more relaxed the aim would be to start slowly extending the time she can be left. Dollie is really affectionate, playful and has a lot of love to give to a home. She just needs patience, understanding and time!

About Dollie

What life with Dollie looks like

Dollie is a small young adult dog waiting at Dogs Trust Leeds in Leeds.

An 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 Dollie, answered.

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