Mindy

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 13 years

F.O.A.L. Farm in Biggin Hill, Kent are seeking a caring and loving home for 13yr old Mindy, a Staffie cross that loves to have her people close by and thrives on love and attention. She arrived into rescue due to the sad death of her previous owner. Mindy is good with dogs out and about, however she does not like living alongside them, so she needs to be the only dog in the home. (She has previously shown aggression towards a resident dog in a foster home) Being a golden oldie, Mindy is a little wobbly on her legs but she is on joint support and pain relief and comfortably manages a 30 minute walk. She’s a little hard of hearing too. Mindy is a very loving and playful girl. She adores her people and does not like being left , so needs a home where someone is at home for most of the time. She could live with older children who will respect her need for some quiet time and space of her own. Kennels are no place for Mindy and she really doesn't like it, so if you think Mindy could fit into your lives, please contact F.O.A.L. Farm. If you can offer dear Mindy a loving home or want to know more about her, please contact FOAL Farm Fill in Foal Farm’s online application form – click here . Email: Please mention that you saw Mindy on Oldies Club website.

About Mindy

What life with Mindy looks like

Mindy is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at The Oldies Club 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 Mindy, answered.

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