How do I contact the shelter about MARA?

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

Can I adopt MARA if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — DBARC Animal Rescue Centre 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 MARA 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 MARA 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 DBARC Animal Rescue Centre early rather than rehoming privately; they know MARA 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.

MARA

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Puppy

Please read our Homing Criteria BEFORE applying for any of our dogs.BREED: CrossbreedSEX: Female AGE: Aprox. 4 monthsSIZE: MediumLovely Mara is one of three sisters who have been given up for rehoming after the owner of their mother found that producing puppies for sale was not a successful idea. Their mother has now been spayed to prevent any repetition of this. The puppies are very friendly and well-socialised, so whilst "breeding" them was not the best idea, they have been well-reared and as a result they are happy, lively and outgoing dogs, ready to start new lives with responsible and caring owners. They are likely to be medium to larger dogs when adult, and certainly will be active and energetic dogs. Potential adopters will need to be ready to help them to catch up with what they have missed in terms of early training, and dog training classes will be essential. If you are considering applying to adopt one of these lovely girls, you will need to have plans ready for their education! You will also need to be very sure that you have the time and energy that raising any puppy requires. This is not always compatible with the demands of a young family or an intensive working life, so if you ae considering applying for one of the puppies, take a long and very honest look at your current and likely future commitments and be sure that you are making a realistic choice. Also you will need to be confident that your own activity levels are likely to match the lifelong needs of a phsically and mentally energetic dog.When a dog moves into a new home, they need time and consideration to help them feel confident and settled. They are having to adjust to a totally different environment, with new people and new challenges, and when one adopts a rescue dog, one must be ready to help them through not just the first few days, but for as long as it takes for them to feel comfortable in their new life. They are relying on their new owners to teach them the house rules and all about the new world they are living in. They are likely to need and benefit from dog training classes, and may also need behavioural help and the adopter may need to seek professional advice. If you are considering adopting, please be very sure that you are committed to the needs of your new friend, as they will be relying on you and their life and happiness is literally in your hands. This will last for their lifetime, so please also take an honest look at your age and activity levels and ensure that you are likely to be able to meet their ongoing needs.Please fill in our Application Form if you are interested in adopting this dog(If the animal’s name does not appear in the drop down box on the form - it means the animal is already reserved)

About MARA

What life with MARA looks like

MARA is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at DBARC Animal Rescue Centre in United Kingdom.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇬🇧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.
