MO

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 18 months

WELCOME MO. WITH OPEN ARMS MAUREEN CAME INTO OUR CARE ON THE ELEVENTH HOUR. This young lady is Maureen. Maureen came into our care on the eleventh hour after a special appeal. She is one mistreated young dog that has been used for breeding. This sad and malnourished dog was left waiting at the stray kennels with little hope of a rescue place. Her life has been turbulent and sad and her lack of trust for humans has been a challenge for us as a small charity. Maureen has clearly been mistreated and arrived extremely underweight with a broken spirit. Mo was worried by other dogs, new people and had serious trust issues with some humans. As always this poor soul was yet another forgotten dog in need of extra mental support. Unfortunately the abuse and mistreatment of dogs physically and mentally is off the scale and so many remain at local stray kennels unable to find rescue help. Maureen is worried by strangers however has the ability to love and trust the people she knows. She has made incredible progress with us in four weeks and we have been elated to see her turn corners and grow with confidence. She loves attention once she trusts you and always greets her special people with a bum wiggle and a tail wag these days. Mo is now walking and able to play and interact with our male volunteers. She adores the human closest to her at kennels and we feel she can have this love and contact with the right adopter. Maureen has now put on some much needed weight and looks stunning. We feel she is definitely a Mastiff cross breed. Her physical problems and weight issues have as always been easy to treat with extra meals and TLC. Ridding Mo Mo of her mental scars has been a work in progress and is on going. We now reach out to special rescue individuals that can help her blossom and grow even more. If you feel this is you then please read on. Mo needs a rescue human that can offer her the support she needs. ​ THE HOME THIS MISTREATED AND DESERVING DOG NEEDS Maureen is now looking to meet some dedicated and kind rescue people. We feel she needs a quiet adult home without other pets and someone that has time to offer guidance and boundaries. Her needs must be met and her human or humans are best suited with experience. Maureen loves the people she knows and will need careful introductions to situations that she may find fearful or challenging. We know this young dog has suffered some mistreatment and used for breeding. A local home for this lady would be amazing where someone can come and meet her more than once. Maureen is easily won over with food and regular visits for her to familiarise with potential adopters will make for amazing progress just has this has with individuals at our charity. CAN YOU HELP? CAN YOU FOSTER? SPECIAL SOMEONE ARE YOU OUT THERE? OURSELVES AND MAUREEN WOULD LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU. Calls are welcome to discuss this beautiful lady n more details. Please show some support for the forgotten rescue dogs. ​

About MO

What life with MO looks like

MO is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Good Life Dog Rescue in United Kingdom.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇬🇧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 MO, answered.

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