Honey

Dachshund · Unknown

Honey Chichester Adoption fee is £350 Neutered female Miniature black and tan 1.5 years Honey is a young, friendly dog whose family have made the difficult decision to surrender her due to significant changes in their circumstances. Over the last six months they have lost the support needed for both their children and Honey, and with an upcoming relocation abroad, they want to ensure she is placed in a stable, suitable home rather than rushed into one. Honey sleeps calmly in her covered crate overnight and for up to four hours during the day. She is currently left during school hours without accidents and is happy to go out with her dog walker once or twice a week. When left alone she may bark occasionally or follow an adult if a toy is taken, but she does not guard food or show destructive behaviours. Out on walks, Honey may bark at the first dog she sees, simply to greet and sniff, but she settles quickly. Her behaviour around cats is unknown. Honey currently lives with children aged four and six, but her family feel she would be best suited to a home with older children or adults only, where she can relax without disturbance, however she may be able to live with another dog. Honey is a loving dog who needs a calm, consistent environment and a family able to give her the attention she has been missing. She will thrive in a peaceful home where she can feel secure and understood.

About Honey

What life with Honey looks like

Honey is a adult dachshund dog waiting at The Red Foundation in Pentlow Street.

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 Honey, answered.

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