Kyle

Lurcher · Male · Young · 2 years

Kyle was found as a stray, he’s mostly lurcher but there could be some yellow lab in there too. Given his general body condition we believe he’s likely been kept outdoors and although he will soil his kennel overnight he is careful to step around it so house-training is likely to take shape quickly. He’s a friendly boy with humans, happily handled by a vet but being a stray our policy is that we cannot rehome with kids less than 12 years old. He is excitable around other dogs, so best matched with dogs his own size perhaps. Being a sighthound we would not rehome with cats or other small furry creatures. He’s been walked by dog walking volunteers who commended him but being a sighthound off lead adventures are strictly for gardens or dog parks at this time, garden boundary heights of at least 1. 5 metres as he’s bouncy! The rehoming fee is £250. 00 for all dogs. Applications will close once we find a suitable applicant.

About Kyle

What life with Kyle looks like

Kyle is a small young adult lurcher dog waiting at Perthshire Abandoned Dog Society in Perth.

A 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Kyle, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Kyle?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Perthshire Abandoned Dog Society handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Kyle on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Kyle if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Perthshire Abandoned Dog Society 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Kyle 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 Kyle 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 Perthshire Abandoned Dog Society early rather than rehoming privately; they know Kyle 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.
