Laurita

Labrador Retriever · Female · Young · 2 years

Laurita is a friendly, easy-going girl looking for a loving forever home. With her lovely long body, shorter legs and cheerful expression, she has a distinctive look and a wonderfully relaxed personality to match. She was found wandering in a village wearing an old, dirty collar, but sadly nobody came forward to claim her. Laurita is now ready to find a family of her own. Sociable and relaxed around people, Laurita gets along well with other dogs and has a balanced energy level. She could adapt well to a variety of home environments, including both city and quieter countryside living, making her a potentially lovely companion for many different households. Laurita may also suit a family with children. She has shown little interest in cats, often choosing to ignore them, although any introductions would need to be managed carefully. Laurita is neutered and fully vaccinated, and ready to start her next chapter with a family who will love her for the happy, adaptable girl she is. Could Laurita be the perfect addition to your family?

About Laurita

What life with Laurita looks like

Laurita is a young adult labrador retriever dog waiting at Starlight Barking Trust in United Kingdom.

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 Laurita, answered.

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