MEG

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 12 years

Meg the Jack Russell is approx 12 yrs old and is now ready to find her perfect home who know and love Terriers. She has been through a lot but thanks to the care of her foster family, she has come a long way. Meg loves people, and is very friendly with everyone she meets. So much so that she really panics when she’s on her own, and struggles being left at all, so she needs a home who can manage this to avoid having to leave her. She travels well, and loves her walks. She walks well on lead. Other dogs she needs a slow introduction to – some she can be snappy with and doesn’t really appreciate dogs in her space, so she needs to be the only dog in her home. Meg is definitely a no to cats/small furries – she’s a typical Terrier! Meg really is so sweet and we really need to get her settled into her forever home. ** PLEASE FILL IN A PRE ADOPTION FORM IF YOU CAN OFFER MEG THE HOME SHE NEEDS ** ** THE ADOPTION FEE IS £150 **

About MEG

What life with MEG looks like

MEG is a small senior mixed breed dog waiting at Helping Yorkshire Poundies in United Kingdom.

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 MEG, answered.

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