Faith

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

Faith is a dog with so much potential. She is beautiful, incredibly loving and capable of forming a wonderful bond with her people – but she needs someone prepared to take the lead, put in the work and help her become the very best version of herself. Faith first came into the care of Just for Dogs in January 2025 before finding a home, where she spent the following year. Sadly, due to a change in her owner’s circumstances, Faith has now returned to us and is once again searching for her forever home. Faith’s previous owner shared these heartfelt words about her: “Faith is a beautiful, kind, loving dog who I have had the pleasure of owning over the past year. She has been nothing but a pleasure to have. ” Faith absolutely adores human company, forms strong bonds and loves affection. She’ll happily settle beside you for cuddles, particularly in the evenings when she loves nothing more than being close to her person. However, Faith needs more than love and affection alone. She is looking for an experienced, confident owner who understands the importance of leadership, boundaries and consistency. Someone willing to invest time into her training, give her clear direction and help her understand what is expected of her. Faith is intelligent, food-motivated and eager to engage, giving her so much potential when channelled in the right direction. With consistency and the right guidance, we believe Faith has everything she needs to become a beautifully trained and well-mannered companion. In return, you’ll have an affectionate, loving girl who enjoys her walks, loves her treats and has so much to offer someone willing to invest in her.

About Faith

What life with Faith looks like

Faith is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Just for Dogs (East Midlands) in United Kingdom.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Faith, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Faith?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Just for Dogs (East Midlands) handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Faith on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Faith if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Just for Dogs (East Midlands) 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Faith 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 Faith 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 Just for Dogs (East Midlands) early rather than rehoming privately; they know Faith 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.
