Duke

Mastiff Β· Male Β· Puppy Β· 10 months

Duke originally found his way into our care as a stray and has spent some time out in homes. He's worked hard on perfecting his housetraining and is now happy travelling in a car. Duke has struggled with being left alone so will need this to be built up from scratch but once settled can be left for a few hours. He is a strong boy and still has some growing to do so any interest will need to be able to manage him on lead and continue his leadwork training. Duke is a young Mastiff cross who enjoys going on adventures and playing with other dogs. He is suitable to live with secondary school aged children who are comfortable with a large, boisterous dog. Duke can live with another dog but doesn't like to share his food so will need his own space in his new home for feeding times.

About Duke

What life with Duke looks like

Duke is a large puppy mastiff dog waiting at Dogs Trust Evesham in Evesham.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window β€” house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§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 Duke, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Duke?
Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Dogs Trust Evesham handles screening and the adoption contract directly β€” TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Duke on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Duke 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 Dogs Trust Evesham whether they will for Duke, 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 Duke already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
TailHarbor has no vaccination, microchip or sterilization details for Duke. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Dogs Trust Evesham, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Duke isn't the right fit?
Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Dogs Trust Evesham about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Duke 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 β€” 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.
