How do I contact the shelter about Kelly?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. A Dog handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Kelly on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Kelly if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — A Dog 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.

Is Kelly 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 Kelly 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 A Dog early rather than rehoming privately; they know Kelly 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.

Adopt Kelly

Mixed Breed · Female

Kelly has been in foster now for about a year. Truth be told, she needed some time to find her feet, have some medical work done & get comfortable with family life and now she is more than ready for her own humans. Her foster family are heading away for the summer so it would be amazing if we could fine her forever home by June. Kelly lived in a very small world & had a tough life before joining ADL but since arriving she has discovered the comforts of home living. She has blossomed & really come out of her shell in that time, enjoying a little luxury in her life. She is about 6-8 years, is fit & healthy & will do well in a rural, semi-rural or mature-suburban home. Kelly is a lovely & gentle companion, suiting a range of family-types with grown ups. Kelly, like all new dogs, will take some time to settle in and develop comfort in her new surroundings., & we will support her new family. Once she’s ready, she likes pottering walks & outings around local parks, fields & quieter spots. She can pass other dogs, people, traffic without a bother & will enjoy a wee gentle stalk of the local birds and squirrels. At home, Kelly is clean & quiet, loves her grub & is a big-time sofa cuddler…so you’ll need to make room for her beside you! Kelly could live as an only dog or with another mature, calm dog who essentially goes about their business like she does (she is in foster with two small dogs and gets on well with both). No cats or children for Kelly as the activity they bring would be too much for her. - quietish adult/big kids home - must have a suitable safe and secure garden - another similar, quiet and mature dog or no resident dog - much sofa cuddling and hanging out - when she's ready, a couple of short potters about in quiet-ish places - some time and patience to help her settle in - love for a gentle, sweet companion Dept of Ag.

About Kelly

What life with Kelly looks like

Kelly is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at A Dog in Glenmore.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇮🇪Adopting from Ireland

Irish shelters require a home check (often phone or video) and an adoption contract. Animals are vaccinated, chipped, and registered. Cross-border placements to mainland Europe require the rabies titer test (TRACES system).
