Mouse

Mixed Breed ยท Male

๐Ÿพ Mouse is still searching for his forever home ๐Ÿพ The last time we posted Mouse, we were overwhelmed with applications and had to pause them. Sadly, none of the homes were the right fit for this special little boy. Mouse was rescued from a slaughterhouse in China and is now safe in foster care in Coventry, UK. Potential adopters must be willing to visit him. About Mouse: ๐Ÿถ Tiny little dog โ€“ under 4kg ๐Ÿถ Good with other dogs ๐Ÿฑ Good with cats ๐Ÿก Not fully house trained yet, but heโ€™s making great progress (heโ€™ll need a patient home willing to continue his training) ๐Ÿฆฎ Walks beautifully on a lead โค๏ธ Loves people, toys, and being part of a home โœจ Full of life and so grateful to be safe Like many small dogs, Mouse can sometimes hump when he gets excited, but it passes very quickly. If you think you could offer this little cutie the loving forever home he deserves, please contact Kerry on between 10amโ€“6pm for more information.

About Mouse

What life with Mouse looks like

Mouse is a very small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Candy in United Kingdom.

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" โ€” quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures โ€” to let them settle.

๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡งAdopting 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 Mouse, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Mouse?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Candy handles screening and the adoption contract directly โ€” TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Mouse on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Mouse if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad โ€” Candy 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 โ‚ฌ100โ€“โ‚ฌ350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Mouse 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 โ€” ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Mouse isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work โ€” that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Candy early rather than rehoming privately; they know Mouse 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 (the shelter's own language). Translation is imperfect โ€” 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.
