Adopt Little One (and Bambi)

Jack Russell Terrier · Female · Adult · 5 years

Hello there... we’re Little One and Bambi, best friends, adventure buddies, and professional sofa snugglers.We came into rescue together when our owner sadly could no longer care for us, and while it was a big change, we’ve had each other every step of the way. We’re an extremely bonded pair, so we’re looking for a home where we can stay side by side forever.I’m Little One, the younger one at around five years old. The humans think I might be a Jack Russell crossed with some kind of hound, but honestly, your guess is as good as mine. I’m curious, sweet, and always ready for a little adventure.And I’m Bambi! I’m around seven years old, and they think maybe I’m a shepherd mix... although I’m quite small for one, so it’s a bit of a mystery. What I do know is that I love being close to my people, and even closer to Little One.We both adore our walks and exploring the world together, but once we’ve had our adventures, our favourite place is curled up together on the sofa having cuddles. We can be a little unsure when meeting new people at first, but give us a little patience and kindness and we soon warm up. Once we trust you, we’re incredibly loving and loyal companions.We’d probably prefer to be the only dogs in the home so we can soak up all the love and attention together. We don’t think living with cats would suit us, but we could happily live with sensible teenage children.More than anything, we’re just looking for a calm, loving home where we can continue our journey together, two little hearts, one very special friendship.Could you be our happy ever after?

About Little One (and Bambi)

What life with Little One (and Bambi) looks like

Little One (and Bambi) is a large adult jack russell terrier dog waiting at National Animal Welfare Trust in Watford.

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 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 Little One (and Bambi), answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Little One (and Bambi)?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. National Animal Welfare Trust handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Little One (and Bambi) on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Little One (and Bambi) if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — National Animal Welfare 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Little One (and Bambi) 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 Little One (and Bambi) 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 National Animal Welfare Trust early rather than rehoming privately; they know Little One (and Bambi) 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.
