Faraon

Mixed Breed · Male

Faraon is a handsome, affectionate boy and is looking for a loving new family through no fault of his own. Sadly, his owner has had to move into emergency accommodation and can no longer keep him. Described as a true family dog, Faraon is full of fun and loves to play. If you enjoy an active companion who is always ready for a game or an adventure, he’ll be in his element. He thrives on affection and enjoys being around the people he loves. Faraon has lived with children aged 5+ and has always been well behaved with them. Like many Retrievers, he can get a little overexcited when he’s having fun, but he has a lovely, friendly nature and has never shown any signs of aggression. He is fully housetrained and has his own adorable way of letting you know when he needs to go outside – he’ll do a little dance by the door! He has been left for a few hours at a time and copes well. He may bark briefly when you first leave, but soon settles. Faraon walks nicely on the lead, although he can pull if he spots children because he’s eager to get closer. He has excellent recall and enjoys getting out and about. Occasionally he may lunge at passing bicycles, so his new family should be prepared to continue working on this with positive, reward-based training. Around other dogs, Faraon is generally friendly and has a canine friend he regularly spends time with, although he can be a little excitable when meeting other dogs. He would be happy as the only dog in the home or could potentially live with another suitable dog following successful introductions. He will chase cats, so he is looking for a cat-free home. Faraon is not possessive over his food or toys, although he does prefer to enjoy a bone without interruption. He can also be a little unsure around unfamiliar men and may bark if approached, so he would benefit from patient owners who can continue to build his confidence. Faraon is a wonderful, loyal boy with so much love to give. In the right home, with plenty of affection, exercise and understanding, he will make a fantastic companion and a devoted member of the family. Don’t leave him waiting, apply today.

About Faraon

What life with Faraon looks like

Faraon is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Warrington Animal Welfare in Warrington.

An 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 Faraon, answered.

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