Adopt Maggie & Kaya

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 14 years

Forever Foster Maggie & Kaya!Maggie and Kaya are two adorable bonded female seniors, who have lived together their whole lives, and are therefore looking for a forever home together. Born 2012-2013 they are both currently 11 years old, and although incredibly fit and healthy (on walks people guess their age as 3-4 years), finding a home for two dogs of this age together is an impossible dream, so they are available for both adoption or fostering under our Forever Foster Initiative, where we pay all of their food and medical bills; all the family have to do is provide a loving forever home, and cherish them and cuddle them for us! They are both cuddle monsters; Kaya is full on ‘cuddle me’, whereas Maggie is a bit more reserved, and will give a subtle paw tap to ask for a tummy rub. They love to have an occasional game of chase or spar fight, and are very good natured whilst playing. They both love their walks out and about, they walk nicely on a lead and are very social with strangers, admired by all who meet them out on their walks, and they particularly adore treat time! Inside the home, they settle nicely, are fully house-trained and enjoy snoozing on a comfy sofa or in a plush basket. These adorable girls are very social and polite, yet could do with some off-lead training before being allowed to run free – we totally believe in force-free training and love Tamar Geller‘s Loved Dog Method of teaching so highly recommend her books and podcasts for training. Background Maggie and Kaya were both originally found separately as abandoned youngsters in Bulgaria, yet were adopted into the same home in 2013 where they had lived together ever since. Through no fault of their own, their family circumstances suddenly changed and so were returned to our sanctuary in West Wales under our Full Rescue Back Up For Life scheme.

If you think you’ve seen your perfect soul mate, please apply via the Enquire Now button below to begin the adoption process. Dog Rescue Adoption Donation of £200 applies (concessions considered), or if applying as a Forever Foster, no donation applies. Enquire NowHolistic Rawfeeding Rescue We are a holistic rawfeeding rescue, so as with all our rescue dogs and puppies for adoption, Maggie & Kaya are being fed a natural raw diet and is currently being fed Paleo Plus for improved health and longevity. As a rawfeeding rescue, we ask that this diet is continued in her new home as she loves it so much! If applying as a Forever Foster, all food is supplied by us, all their family will need to provide is a freezer as the food is delivered frozen. We provide full advice and support as standard for anyone who is new to rawfeeding dogs or holistic principles. Homecheck by your chosen dog applies to see if she likes her new home! Our Dog Rehoming process involves several visits to get to know your dog, and for your dog to get to know you, so that the rehoming is not a shock away from all that they know and is simply a natural transition to their new family. We find that this helps our rescue dogs to settle into their new home with less stress and anxiety and makes for much more successful rehomings. For this reason, we only rehome within travelling distance of our base in West Wales at the moment. Full lifetime rescue backup and animal welfare contract applies, so if for any reason our dogs are not suitable or circumstances change, we require the dogs are to be returned to us. Sorry, your browser doesn't support embedded videos. ** We are just a very small team here in the UK, so we are currently only able to consider adopters within travelling distance of our base in West Wales, due to the practicalities of journey times for post-adoption back-up and support from our sanctuary. We apologize if this leads to disappointment, however we have found through experience that more local dog adoptions do not overstretch our limited resources. Thank you for your understanding!

About Maggie & Kaya

What life with Maggie & Kaya looks like

Maggie & Kaya is a small senior mixed breed dog waiting at K9 Rescue in Crymych.

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 Maggie & Kaya, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Maggie & Kaya?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. K9 Rescue handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Maggie & Kaya on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Maggie & Kaya if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — K9 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 Maggie & Kaya 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 Maggie & Kaya 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 K9 Rescue early rather than rehoming privately; they know Maggie & Kaya 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.
