Jules

Bichon Frisé · Female · Adult · 5 years

21-09-26 Jules has come to us from a breeder to start her new adventure. She is a very nervous girl who is feeling overwhelmed by all the changes in her world. She is unsure of people and worried about being handled, so will initially run away and hide. She is a sweet girl underneath her worries, and we hope that with kindness, reassurance and time, she will slowly learn that people can be trusted. Jules will be looking for a calm and quiet home with adopters who have experience with scared ex-breeding dogs and understand that she will need to settle in completely at her own pace. We would consider a home with gentle, dog-savvy teenagers aged 16+ who can give her the space and patience she needs. Jules will need a kind and confident resident dog in her new home to take her under their wing and help her feel safe as she adjusts to home life. Having a canine friend to learn from will be important for Jules as she begins to build her confidence and discover that the world isn't such a scary place. Jules has never lived in a home before, so she will need kind and patient adopters as she learns all about home life and new skills like house training. She will also need to learn about walking on a lead and harness, starting with gentle practice around the garden and gradually building her confidence. Jules is a sweet girl who has so much potential, and in the right home, we hope she will truly thrive. With patience, understanding and the support of a confident canine companion, she can begin to feel safe and discover just how wonderful life can be. Our vets have noted that Jules has ectropion affecting her lower eyelids, which has been assessed but required no treatment. She has had 32 teeth removed at the time of her spay and will need a soft food diet moving forwards. Jules has a travel document. This dog can be homed with a resident dog.

About Jules

What life with Jules looks like

Jules is an adult bichon frisé dog waiting at Many Tears Animal Rescue in Llanelli.

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 Jules, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Jules?: Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Many Tears Animal Rescue handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Jules on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Jules if I live in another country?: Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask Many Tears Animal Rescue whether they will for Jules, what they require (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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Jules already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: TailHarbor has no vaccination, microchip or sterilization details for Jules. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Many Tears Animal Rescue, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Jules isn't the right fit?: Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Many Tears Animal Rescue about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Jules 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.
