How do I contact the shelter about Honey?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Oakwood Dog Rescue 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 — Oakwood 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 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 Oakwood Dog Rescue 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.

Honey

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 2 years

This poor girl found herself in a public shelter in Romania and to say she was terrified, would be an understatement. The shelter is massively over capacity due to the amount of dogs that are dropped off there and Poor Honey was getting so badly bullied by the other dogs, it was just awful. One day, she was so scared that she tried to chew her way through the metal bars in an absolute frantic panic, when the workers got to her, there was blood absolutely everywhere. Honey was pulled to safety and after seeing the photos, we agreed to take her in at Oakwood and so she was prepped for her journey. Another 30 days and the nightmare in Romania would finally be over for her. Since arriving at Oakwood, Honey was very shut down for the first weeks or so. She was too scared to leave her kennel or be anywhere near the staff, at times she'd wee herself in her bed if she thought we were approaching. We've been giving Honey as much time and space as she needs, and over the past few days she has started venturing out of her kennel with the help of her dog pals. She is slowly starting to get a little fussy to see us and getting close enough for sniffs. Honey still has a very long journey ahead of her but she's already made massive progress in just a couple of weeks, her future is certainly looking up for her and she's so sweet natured, she deserves nothing but kindness for the rest of her days. Honey loves being around gentle natured dogs. Any dogs that are too boisterous and in her face worry her, but ones that will be able to read her body language and give her the space she needs, but to also encourage her to come out of her shell would be everything to her. She must be adopted to a home that already has at least one dog living there. Honey is still too shut down to be able to cat test her. She's very gentle natured and so will will definitely be one on our list to test as soon as she is ready. Honey is currently still very subdued and scared of everything around her, it's likely we won't get a true read on her energy levels during her stay in the kennels Honey has never lived in a home before - as far as we are aware. As Honey will need to live in a home with another dog, she should be fine to be left for 4-5 hours as she will have their company and it will be who she feels most safe with Honey is far too scared to attempt lead training at this time Honey doesn't have any form of basic training, she will need to learn to settle in her environment and trust her new family before training can commence

About Honey

What life with Honey looks like

Honey is a small young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Oakwood Dog Rescue in Kingston upon Hull.

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" — 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.
