Mallow

Mixed Breed · Female

Meet Mallow 🤍 Marlow is a beautiful large doodle who arrived with us in absolutely appalling coat condition. Since then, she’s been to the groomers, been shaved down and is already feeling so much better, with her coat now in far better condition than when she first arrived. A naturally nervous girl, Mallow can still be shy in new situations and around new people. Because of this, we feel living with another calm and confident dog would really help her continue to build confidence and feel secure in her new home. Once Mallow gets to know you and learns to trust you, she is incredibly affectionate, friendly and wants to be involved in everything that’s going on around her. Building that trust can take a little time and patience, but every single day we are seeing such lovely progress from her. At around three years old, Mallow is inquisitive, gentle and ready to begin enjoying life properly. Once you earn her trust, you’ll have a best friend for life. Mallow is looking for a patient and understanding home with another dog, where she’ll be given the time, space and reassurance she needs to continue growing in confidence. We are looking for a home with children aged 12+.

About Mallow

What life with Mallow looks like

Mallow is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Almost Home Animal Rescue NI in Belfast.

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 Ireland

Irish shelters require a home check (often phone or video) and an adoption contract. Animals are vaccinated, chipped, and registered. Cross-border placements to mainland Europe require the rabies titer test (TRACES system).

Frequently asked

Adopting Mallow, answered.

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