George

Mixed Breed · Male

George is a gentle, sensitive soul who will blossom with a patient and understanding adopter. Once he has built a bond, he can be very affectionate, enjoying a fuss on his own terms and sometimes seeking out attention himself. He is calm and independent indoors, where he enjoys exploring his surroundings before settling down to relax. George would love a peaceful home with adopters who will give him the time and space he needs to feel safe and build his confidence at his own pace. George enjoys going for walks, taking his time to explore the world through his nose and discover all the interesting scents along the way. He would suit a quieter lifestyle, with peaceful walking routes and gentle introductions to new experiences. He will need a home with adopters who will understand his sensitive nature, alongside gradual introductions to being left alone and a patient approach to grooming. George has so much potential to form a special bond with the right person, and with kindness, patience and understanding, he could make a truly lovely companion. Ready to adopt? Donate Can't adopt?

About George

What life with George looks like

George is an adult mixed breed dog waiting at Bath Cats and Dogs Home 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 George, answered.

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