Finn

Staffordshire Bull Terrier · Male · Adult · 6 years

DOB: February 2020 Sex: Male Breed: Staffordshire Bull Terrier x American Bulldog Size: Medium Energy level: High About me: Finn is an energetic, playful, and friendly boy who loves being around people. He’s got a big personality, a stubborn streak, and will happily keep you company all day if allowed. Whether it’s playtime, outdoor adventures, or curling up for affection, Finn always wants to be involved. Cats: Pending assessment. Dogs: He would prefer to be the only dog in the home, but would benefit from further socialisation with other dogs outside the home. Children: 10 years and over. Ideal home: Finn is looking for an active home with owners who are around a lot and can give him plenty of exercise, ongoing training, and lots of mental stimulation to keep his clever mind busy.

About Finn

What life with Finn looks like

Finn is a medium-sized adult staffordshire bull terrier dog waiting at St Francis Animal Welfare in United Kingdom.

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 Finn, answered.

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