Adopt Milo

Beagle · Male · Adult · 6 years

Milo is a super sweet 6-year-old Beagle crossbreed. He has stolen the hearts of so many staff at the centre with his happy smile and fabulous ears! He does have some previous medical to consider, but he has since recovered and does not currently require any treatment for this. Milo loves getting out and about for sniffy adventures and walks like a dream on lead. He travels well in the car and his tail just doesn't stop wagging while he's having fun with his favourite people! After a busy day, Milo is happy to snuggle up for a relaxing evening. If you feel Milo could be your perfect match, submit an application and don't forget to "favourite" him! Meet Milo! This lovable boy has arrived to Dogs Trust through no fault of his own and is super excited to find his forever home! He can be a little shy initially, but once he gets to know you Milo will be your best friend for life! He has previously lived with another dog and could share his new home with a calm companion, but would be equally happy as the only dog in his new home. Milo is a laid back chap and is comfortable being left alone for a few hours. Leaving time could be built gradually once settled in his new home. We feel Milo would be better suited to a home where everyone is 12+ and understands when he may want some time to himself.

About Milo

What life with Milo looks like

Milo is a adult beagle dog waiting at Dogs Trust Ballymena in Ballymena.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇬🇧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 Milo, answered.

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