Buttercup

Mixed Breed Β· Female Β· Young Β· 1 year

I’m a 1-year-old Terrier mix with a playful spirit and a loving heart, and I’m on the lookout for my forever home πŸ’š I can be a little nervous when meeting new people, so I’m hoping to find a calm and understanding family who will give me the time I need to build my confidence. Once I get to know you, I’m a sweet and loyal companion who loves being part of the family. I’d be happiest in a home with children aged 14 years and over, who can respect my space and help me feel safe and settled. A secure garden with 5ft fencing is a must, as I enjoy exploring and spending time outdoors. I’m looking for a home with a calm, confident dog companion. Having another dog around helps me feel secure, and I’d love a canine friend who can show me that the world isn’t such a scary place. My new family will also need to be patient while helping me learn that being left alone isn’t so bad. My leaving hours will need to be built up gradually, giving me the best chance to settle successfully into my new home. If you have a quiet, loving home, a calm doggy friend, and plenty of patience to help me blossom, I could be the perfect addition to your family. Please apply for me below! πŸ• Lots of love and licks, Buttercup πŸΆπŸ’š

About Buttercup

What life with Buttercup looks like

Buttercup is a small young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Jerry Green Dog Rescue in Lincoln.

An young 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" β€” quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures β€” to let them settle.

πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§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 Buttercup, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Buttercup?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Jerry Green Dog Rescue handles screening and the adoption contract directly β€” TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Buttercup on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Buttercup if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad β€” Jerry Green Dog 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 Buttercup 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 β€” ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Buttercup isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work β€” that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Jerry Green Dog Rescue early rather than rehoming privately; they know Buttercup 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 β€” 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.
