Minnie & Teddy

Dachshund · Unknown · Young · 3 years

Minnie & Teddy have a very close relationship and we would love to see them find a home together. They are definitely not double the trouble, but 100% double the love! These two do everything together and absolutely adore being around people, especially their person. Sit down with them and it won’t be long before they are climbing onto your knee, looking for cuddles and giving plenty of kisses. Both are friendly, sociable dogs, with Teddy being a little more confident around other dogs. Minnie can sometimes bark when she is feeling unsure, so they would both benefit from continued socialisation with other dogs in a calm and controlled way to help build their confidence. Minnie & Teddy will also need some further training, particularly with their lead walking. An owner with previous experience of Dachshunds would be beneficial, or someone who has thoroughly researched the breed and understands their needs, including the veterinary considerations associated with Dachshunds. These affectionate little characters have so much love to give and will certainly brighten up their new home. For someone looking for two loving companions, Minnie & Teddy make a very special pair.

About Minnie & Teddy

What life with Minnie & Teddy looks like

Minnie & Teddy is a young adult dachshund dog waiting at RSPCA Radcliffe Animal Centre in United Kingdom.

An young 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 Minnie & Teddy, answered.

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