Hanzo

Pomeranian · Male · Senior · 11 years

Hanzo is an affectionate 11-year-old Pomeranian cross looking for a calm adult-only home where he can enjoy his retirement years. He loves fuss from his favourite people, enjoys gentle walks and has a playful side when it comes to his soft toys. Hanzo can be worried by unfamiliar people, children and some dogs, so he is looking for understanding owners who will give him time to settle and continue helping him build confidence. Since arriving at Battersea he has shown that, with patient introductions, he is capable of making new friends and coping well with new experiences. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who enjoys company, appreciates a quiet lifestyle and still has plenty of character to share, Hanzo could be the perfect match. If you have already completed our online rehoming form and would like to know more about Hanzo, you can e-mail our rehoming team on to register your interest. tch for the dog you have contacted us about

About Hanzo

What life with Hanzo looks like

Hanzo is a small senior pomeranian dog waiting at Battersea Dogs & Cats Home in London.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇬🇧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 Hanzo, answered.

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