Misty

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 11 years

Hello Everyone, I’m Misty, a beautiful older Husky looking for a retirement home where I can enjoy all the things I love most in life… plenty of fuss, gentle strolls, and lots of time for sniffing around the garden! Now, I may be an older girl, but don’t let that fool you. I still enjoy getting out and about for a little potter and exploring the world at my own pace. Once I’ve had my wander, I’m more than happy to settle down and enjoy some company and affection. In fact, I absolutely love a fuss and will happily soak up all the attention you can give me. I’d really love a home with a secure garden and 6ft fencing, where I can safely enjoy my favourite pastime of sniffing every inch of the garden and having a gentle potter around whenever I please. I’ve previously been used to being left home alone, but at this stage in my life I’d prefer a family who can keep that to around two hours at a time. After all, I’ve earned the right to enjoy my retirement years with people who want to spend time with me. I’d like to be the only pet in the home, as I enjoy having all the comforts and attention to myself. However, I’m happy to have some canine walking buddies with a similar calm temperament, and we are introduced at my own pace. I could live with sensible children aged 14 years and over, and as long as everyone is respectful, we should get on just fine. I came into rescue through no fault of my own, and I’m hoping someone will look beyond my age and see the wonderful companion I have to offer. I still have so much love, loyalty, and companionship to give. All I need is someone willing to give an older girl a chance. Could you be the one to help me enjoy the happy retirement I deserve?

About Misty

What life with Misty looks like

Misty is a large senior mixed breed dog waiting at Jerry Green Dog Rescue in Lincoln.

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 Misty, answered.

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