Adopt Louie – found a home

Mixed Breed · Male · 1 year

Louie is a large young boy so is full of energy. Although a handful, he is a very sweet boy. Life for Louie is one big game and he thinks everyone wants to join in the excitement. We think Louie would suit an owner who is experienced with large breeds and has the time to teach him his manners and boundaries. With some time and patience, we believe Louie would make a fun addition to your family. Due to his size and energy he wouldn’t be suitable around children or other animals.

About Louie – found a home

What life with Louie – found a home looks like

Louie – found a home is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Wadars Animal Rescue in Worthing.

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 Louie – found a home, answered.

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