Lana

Female · Puppy · 5 months

Lana is the kind of dog who wakes up every day excited to see what adventures are waiting for her. Whether she's charging after a tennis ball, pouncing on a rope toy or investigating something new, she throws herself into everything with boundless excitement. Despite her growing size, Lana still has all the charm of a young puppy. She loves a fuss from her favourite people and has a wonderfully sweet side that shines through once she's had a chance to say hello. She's also a huge foodie, which makes her a delight to train and always keen to get involved. With her playful personality, love of toys and eagerness to experience the world around her, Lana is sure to keep her new family entertained. If you're looking for a fun-loving young dog to grow alongside your family, Lana is ready to start her next adventure. At just 5 months old, Lana is a bundle of joy with a bright future ahead of her. This Deerhound Cross has a fantastic personality and is looking for a family who are ready to embrace all the fun, training and adventures that come with raising a young puppy. Lana will need owners who can continue her training and provide her with an active lifestyle to match her enthusiasm for life. As she grows, Lana is going to be a very large dog, so her new family will need to be confident handling a dog of her size and committed to helping her develop into a well-mannered adult. Lana can live with other dogs and could share her home with older primary school-aged children who are comfortable around bouncy, playful dogs. She can also be left for up to four hours once settled into her new home.

About Lana

What life with Lana looks like

Lana is a extra-large puppy/kitten dog waiting at Dogs Trust Shrewsbury in Telford.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇬🇧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 Lana, answered.

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