Mulberry

Greyhound · Male · Adult · 5 years

Mulberry is very food motivated, which makes him super keen to learn, and despite not having had much home experience yet, he already travels beautifully and takes new things in his stride like it’s no big deal. If you’re looking for a dog who is always up and roaring to go, please add him to your favourites! If you’re looking for a dog who’s always bursting with enthusiasm and ready to take on the world, Mulberry is your boy — don’t forget to pop him in your favourites! Mulberry is a 5-year-old ex-racing Greyhound who is ready to swap the tracks for a forever home. He is a super affectionate, playful, and highly interactive boy who loves being around people. He has a wonderfully goofy energy that brings real joy to everyone he meets. Mulberry must be the only pet in the home, although he can enjoy walking with similar-sized dogs when out and about. He can live with secondary school-aged children, and because Mulberry hasn’t experienced home life before, he will need adopters who are around for most of the day initially.

About Mulberry

What life with Mulberry looks like

Mulberry is a large adult greyhound dog waiting at Dogs Trust Shrewsbury in Telford.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Mulberry, answered.

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