How do I contact the shelter about Gizmo?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Hull Animal Welfare Trust handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Gizmo on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Gizmo if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Hull Animal Welfare Trust 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 Gizmo 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 Gizmo 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 Hull Animal Welfare Trust early rather than rehoming privately; they know Gizmo 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.

Gizmo

Mixed Breed · Male

“Hi my name is Gizmo! I am a resident at Hull Animal Welfare Trust and I have been a resident here for quite some time now. 😔 I don't mind it too much here at the kennels, but it can be quite noisy with the other dogs barking and a lot of comings and goings all day so it would be nice to find a quiter place where I can spend the rest of my days. 😊 I had a bad experience beofre coming to Hull Animal Welfare, I was abandoned by my owner in a flat and the anxiety of not knowing when someone was coming back for me was very upsetting. 😓 Because of this I don't like being left alone anymore and would need someone very calm and patient that can understand my worries and work with me to start feeling better. 😔 I love having freedom and being out and about on walks and keeping busy and i loooovve sniffing!! The ‘humans' at Hull Animal Welfare have been very kind and have been helping me to learn to relax more and be calm. 😊 Once you get to know me you will see that I am a happy boy who just wants to love someone and them to love me back. 💙” ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. As Gizmo has an unknown past and he can be quite a bouncy lad who requires some time, patience and understanding, we cannot rehome him with children. He may be able to live with another dog subject to the right match and successful meet and greets. He is untested with cats and small animals. We are looking for a special kind of home for Gizmo. Due to having him with us for quite some time now, and after going out to two different homes and being returned, we have been able to get a better idea of the sort of home and life that Gizmo would be suited to. Gizmo does not cope well with being in a home environment and we believe this is most likely due to his history of being abandoned in a property. When he is in a home environment he becomes incredibly stressed and frustrated and displays some behaviours that are difficult to manage. Gizmo surprisingly copes really well in his kennel and is always calm and relaxed when in there. We are looking for a home for Gizmo where he can be given similar kennel living arrangements with a view to slowly and gradually get him used to coming indoors and being comfortable being inside a house. He is an intelligent and driven boy who would be ideal for someone who wants to do some kind of scent or trail work as he enjoys being physically and mentally active. Please give us a call between 11-2pm any day, on if you can give this lovely boy the right home ☺️

About Gizmo

What life with Gizmo looks like

Gizmo is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hull Animal Welfare Trust in South Cave.

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.
