Adopt Floyd

Mixed Breed · Male

Meet Floyd 💙 Floyd is a nine-year-old poodle cross with the sweetest soul and the funniest little personality. Although he’s nine, he’s still so young at heart and absolutely loving life. When Floyd arrived with us, he was terrified of the world — painfully skinny, with very little hair and no confidence at all. Since then, he has completely amazed us with his resilience and gentle spirit. Watching him blossom has been incredibly special. Now, Floyd is super friendly, loves everyone he meets, bounces around your feet and does the happiest little dance at food time. He asks for so little in return for so much love. His lead walking is coming on brilliantly, he has been neutered, fully vaccinated and truly is a dream of a dog. Floyd could happily live with another calm dog, but he is also confident enough now to be an only dog soaking up all the attention for himself. We also feel he should be fine living with cats. This beautiful boy is looking for a quiet, settled home where he can continue to grow in confidence and enjoy the happy life he deserves. Floyd is simply a great boy — kind, gentle and impossible not to fall in love with.

About Floyd

What life with Floyd looks like

Floyd is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Almost Home Animal Rescue NI in Belfast.

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 Ireland

Irish shelters require a home check (often phone or video) and an adoption contract. Animals are vaccinated, chipped, and registered. Cross-border placements to mainland Europe require the rabies titer test (TRACES system).

Frequently asked

Adopting Floyd, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Floyd?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Almost Home Animal Rescue NI handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Floyd on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Floyd if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Almost Home Animal Rescue NI 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Floyd 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 Floyd 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 Almost Home Animal Rescue NI early rather than rehoming privately; they know Floyd 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.
