Adopt HOPE (ap)

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Hope’s story began in November 2022, when she was just six weeks old. She and her sister were abandoned in a sack — an act that was caught on video and reported to the authorities. Sadly, the person responsible received only a fine. But despite such a rough start, Hope has grown into a sweet, affectionate, and trusting dog, full of love and spirit.She is incredibly smart and eager to please, always ready to give affection and soak up attention in return. Hope is a gentle soul who enjoys the company of people and other dogs, though she tends to bond closely with just a few of her canine companions. She’s playful and submissive by nature, and she’s also independent enough to be left alone for a few hours without worry.Hope hasn’t been tested with cats, but she’s shown she can live peacefully with other dogs. She’s also likely to do well with dog-savvy children, especially in a home where kindness and patience are part of daily life.What Hope needs most is a secure and loving home — one with a safely enclosed garden where she can explore and relax on her own, just as she does now. A family with children or other dogs would be a perfect match for her playful and affectionate personality.Hope is approx. 16.5kg, and stands around 70cm tall and 75cm long. She is fully vaccinated and spayed.

About HOPE (ap)

What life with HOPE (ap) looks like

HOPE (ap) is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Stray2Me Rescue in United Kingdom.

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 HOPE (ap), answered.

How do I contact the shelter about HOPE (ap)?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Stray2Me Rescue handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw HOPE (ap) on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt HOPE (ap) if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Stray2Me 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 HOPE (ap) 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 HOPE (ap) 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 Stray2Me Rescue early rather than rehoming privately; they know HOPE (ap) 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.
