Doug

Pug · Male · Senior · 10 years

Doug & Duffy came into our care due to a change in their owner's circumstances. They are very friendly and have made friends with everyone they have met at the centre. They enjoy their walks and like snuggling up together for a nap afterwards. As much as the love each other, they are not keen on sharing food so will need to be kept seperate at feeding times. They have walked with other dogs at the centre, Duffy can be vocal initially until she has the opportunity to say hello. Both have age related medical which is well managed with pain relief which will need to be ongoing. This lovely pair will make a wonderful addition to their new home. Doug & Duffy are a delightful duo looking for a new home together. At 10yrs young they still have a zest for life and enjoy their walks and love spending time with people. They would like to be the only dogs in their new home but could have doggy friends out on walks. They have lived with cats previously and could join a home with a dog savvy cat. They have previously lived with children and could join a home with children of Primary School age and older. They would enjoy having their own outside space. Once settled they could be left for short periods of time.

About Doug

What life with Doug looks like

Doug is a senior pug dog waiting at Dogs Trust Snetterton in Snetterton.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇬🇧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 Doug, answered.

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