How do I contact the shelter about Lowry?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dogs Trust Canterbury handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Lowry on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Lowry if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dogs Trust Canterbury 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 Lowry 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 Lowry 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 Canterbury early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lowry 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.

Lowry

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Lowry is looking for a home with loving and active adopters who can take him on sniffy adventures, who will take the time to help him settle in and give him all the love and attention he deserves. He cannot live in an open-plan home, he needs to be able to be separated from the kitchen area as he finds food just a little too tempting. He is a friendly bean but does need his own space to potter and explore, so could live with secondary school children who are comfortable with larger dogs, who will play nicely with him and give him space to rest when he needs. Lowry could live with another dog who will happily co-exist and engage in occasional play, this will be pending successful meets at the centre. Living with a dog is not a necessity, he would be happy with friendly and playful walking buddies. He has a little training under his belt, he is a busy boy and can be easily distracted, he can be enticed to engage in training in short, sweet sessions with the help of a tasty treat. He would like a home with a private or communal garden to have a potter around and play in. Lowry is worried being left so would like someone home the majority of the time, any leaving time would need to be built up slowly once he has had time to settle into his new home. Lowry will need to meet his adopters a few times prior to going home with the potential for home visits to make sure he is settling in well, so please bear this in mind when applying. Please note that should you be shortlisted, our rehoming process usually takes up to 7 days, and potential adopters would be required to come up to the centre to meet him within 48hrs of being shortlisted. Curious and affectionate boy Lowry is a 1 and a half year old Hound Cross with a kind soul and a busy mind. He loves to explore and follows his nose wherever he goes, he can sometimes be seen as quite aloof because he is so busy sniffing that he doesn’t even notice you have arrived. He hasn’t really shown an interest with toys, but any games you can play that involve using his nose and he is your guy! He does enjoy a fuss, he will approach for a quick back or neck scratch and then head back off on important business. This super boy is really to find his new home.

About Lowry

What life with Lowry looks like

Lowry is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Dogs Trust Canterbury in Chestfield.

An 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.
