Maude

Pomeranian · Female · Senior · 9 years

Hello, my name is Maud, and I’m a 9-year-old Pomeranian.I’ve had a bit of a difficult life, and now that I’m a more mature little lady, I’m hoping my next chapter will be a much happier one. I’m ready to put the past behind me and find a peaceful retirement home where I can feel safe, be cherished, and enjoy all the little comforts a girl like me deserves.Now, if there’s one thing you should know about me, it’s that I absolutely adore people! Attention? Yes, please. Affection? Absolutely. Cuddles? Bring them on! I’m a very loving girl, and being close to my favourite humans is pretty much my idea of heaven. In fact, I take my cuddling duties so seriously that I like to launch myself straight into your arms, even when you’re standing up. Why wait for an invitation when there are cuddles to be had? If I see an opportunity to get closer to you, I’m quite happy to take matters into my own little paws. I’m only a small girl, after all, and I have a great deal of love to give. Naturally, I need to make sure I’m getting my fair share of affection!I may be 9 years old, but please don’t think that means I’ve lost my enthusiasm for a fuss. I still have plenty of love to share, and I’m happiest when I know my people are nearby. I’d love a home where I can spend my days enjoying companionship, snuggling up with my humans, and finally having the time to relax and simply be someone's precious little girl.What I’m looking for now is a calm, loving home where I can settle in at my own pace and enjoy a peaceful retirement. I’ve had some difficult chapters in my story, and I’m hoping the next one will be filled with kindness, comfort, and the reassurance that I’m right where I belong. I don’t need grand adventures or a busy lifestyle. Just a family who will adore me.Could you be the person who gives me the happy ending I deserve? Someone who has room in their heart for a sweet, affectionate older girl who simply wants to love and be loved in return?

About Maude

What life with Maude looks like

Maude is a small senior pomeranian dog waiting at National Animal Welfare Trust in Watford.

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 Maude, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Maude?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. National Animal Welfare Trust handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Maude on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Maude if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — National Animal Welfare Trust 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Maude 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 Maude 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 National Animal Welfare Trust early rather than rehoming privately; they know Maude 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.
