Adopt Loki

Jack Russell Terrier · Male · Senior · 10 years

Meet Loki our 10-year-old Jack Russel Terrier who is looking for a quiet home where he can relax and have all the attention and fuss, he deserves. Loki can often be found sat with his favourite handlers having fuss or enjoying some tasty snacks which he takes very gently. Loki Jumps straight into the car; he is also crate trained and loves to use his crate as a safe space and has been going for walks at the centre with calmer dogs building up his confidence. In his previous home, Loki was housetrained and could be left for a few hours by himself. Loki can be worried by other dogs and bark at them so he should be kept on his lead out and about. Loki would thrive in an adult only home, with no visiting children as he has been uncomfortable around his resting areas. For this reason, Loki would like a home who can give him space around resources and resting areas. He would like to be the only dog in the home with no cats but could live with small furries if they are kept separate. Loki will require home trials so that our team can support his transition to his forever home, his new family will therefore need to reside within one hour of the rehoming centre in order to facilitate this.

About Loki

What life with Loki looks like

Loki is a small senior jack russell terrier dog waiting at Dogs Trust Manchester in Manchester.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇬🇧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 Loki, answered.

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