Mayan

Staffordshire Bull Terrier · Female · Senior · 9 years

Mayan came to us from her owner after their health declined, we’ve been unable to communicate with her owner to learn more about her. Mayan is a bit overweight and requires a diet while she’s waiting for a new home, she recently had a dental procedure to have 12 rotten teeth removed. Mayan enjoys a walk but her obesity means she needs little & often at the moment, to avoid putting too much pressure on her joints. She lived with another dog but a recent trial with another dog was unsuccessful so she’d likely prefer to be an only dog. We don’t know if she’s ever met a cat nor had any exposure to children. The rehoming fee for all dogs is £210. 00 The rehoming fee is £250. 00 for all dogs. Applications will close once we find a suitable applicant.

About Mayan

What life with Mayan looks like

Mayan is a senior staffordshire bull terrier dog waiting at Perthshire Abandoned Dog Society in Perth.

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 Mayan, answered.

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