Dora

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

Hi everyone, I’m Dora, a gorgeous 3 year old Cockapoo and, if I do say so myself, a VERY lovable little lady! 🥰 I’m friendly, cuddly and absolutely adore people, so if you’re looking for a dog who will happily become your little shadow, I might just be your girl! I love everyone I meet and I’m always ready to make a new best friend. My favourite place to be is right next to my people, preferably on the sofa, where I can enjoy plenty of cuddles and generally make myself very comfortable! I’m quite attached to my humans and I’m used to having someone around with me all the time, so I do find being left on my own a bit tricky. Because of this, I’m looking for a home where I can have very low leaving hours to begin with. I’ll need someone who is happy to take things slowly and build up my time alone very gradually, at my own pace. I’m sure with the right support I can learn that my people really are coming back, but I’ll need someone patient who understands that this will be a process. At bedtime, I currently sleep in my own bed in my owner’s bedroom and I’d really like to keep this routine in my new home. I can struggle if I’m left alone at night, so having my own little bed in your bedroom would make me very happy indeed! I’m a very clever girl and I’m fully housetrained. I’m always up for a bit of playtime and then, naturally, I’ll need a nice cuddle afterwards because all that playing is very tiring when you’re this cute! I’d ideally like to be the only pet in my new home so I can have all the love and attention for myself! However, I do get on well with other dogs and would be very happy to have some doggy walking buddies to meet up with. I do have a rather enthusiastic interest in chasing small animals, though, so I wouldn’t be suitable to live with small furries. This also means I need to stay on lead for all of my walks as I am quite fond of chasing wildlife too! I could live with children aged 11 years and over, and I’d love a family who will include me in their everyday life. A fully secure garden with a 6ft fence would be perfect too, as I’d love somewhere safe to potter around, play with my toys and have a good nosey about. I’m a very loving, affectionate and clever little girl, and I really do adore being with my people. I’m looking for someone who will appreciate just how much of a little Velcro Cockapoo I am and who is happy to help me build my confidence with being apart from them, one tiny step at a time. In return, I promise plenty of cuddles, toy time, happy wiggles and a whole lot of love! 💕

About Dora

What life with Dora looks like

Dora is a small young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Jerry Green Dog Rescue in Lincoln.

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 Dora, answered.

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