Galyah

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

We will open Galyah to applications when she has passed her blood tests This adorable girl is Galyah. She was rescued from someone who used her for breeding and who treated her pretty badly. Galyah was quite poorly when she was first rescued but has recovered quickly. She is six years old and is going through the process to travel to Scotland but so far she appears to be great with other dogs, she loves to play chase, and also with cats. Before Galyah is placed in her forever home she will be neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and blood tested. We are aiming to have her ready for our November flight D.O.B.: 20 July 2020 Cat tested: Yes - no issues Food Tested (Resource guarding): Yes - No issues

About Galyah

What life with Galyah looks like

Galyah is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Sand to Sofa Rescue 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 Galyah, answered.

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