Jed

Staffordshire Bull Terrier · Male · Senior · 11 years

Meet Jed, a gentle 10-year-old neutered male Staffy x Boxer who is looking for a foster home. Jed has recently been diagnosed with kidney failure so it is unknown how long he may have left. We would love for Jed to find himself a loving foster home where he can see out whatever time he has left in comfort.Despite being deaf, Jed is a loving, people-focused boy who just wants to be by your side all day. He adores human company, thrives on affection and he is ready to shower you with love. Could you open your heart and home to this very special boy and give him the end of life comfort he deserves?‍

About Jed

What life with Jed looks like

Jed is a senior staffordshire bull terrier dog waiting at Kit Wilson Trust for Animal Welfare in United Kingdom.

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 Jed, answered.

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