Elias

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

Elias is a very sweet and friendly boy. He came into our care as a stray so we don’t have any background information on him. He has always been friendly with staff and volunteers whilst here. Elias can be a little strong on the lead due to his size so some basic lead training would be beneficial for him. We are looking for an active home for Elias as he has a lot of energy and would enjoy going on lots of adventures. Elias is a calm boy in his kennel and loves to have some down time with a tasty chew. Elias is a friendly boy but due to his size we believe that it would be best for him to be rehomed with children over 14 years and over – Subject to a successful meet. Elias has interacted well with dogs whilst in our care, he has a submissive nature around other dogs. We believe that Elias can be rehomed with another dog with the same energy levels.

About Elias

What life with Elias looks like

Elias is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Manchester & Cheshire Dogs Home (Cheshire) in Warrington.

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 Elias, answered.

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