Musket and Bebe

Cocker Spaniel · Unknown · Adult · 8 years

Musket (white chest) and Bebe (smaller, grey chin) are a mother and son looking for a quiet home together where they can have company most of the time and go on long country or beach walks. A home with Cocker Spaniel experience would be best. They can be excited to greet people in the home but settle after a short time. They will bark if they hear someone at the front gate. Musket is the more timid one, as he grew up during the Covid lockdowns and was not used to seeing people often. Musket is a bit more unsure of people or situations and can jump up on you but calms down after a minute. He usually takes on some of his mum Bebe’s confidence so they work well together and always enjoy each other’s company. Bebe is very friendly and affectionate and just wants attention. Both are okay at the vets. They are used to children and can be left alone for a few hours. Both are fine to be wash and brushed and they have stayed in boarding kennels before. Musket and Bebe travel well in the car and love to go on good adventure walks. On walks, Musket can be a little scared of other dogs and tends to stay away from them but Bebe is happy to say hello. Musket wears a harness and they can pull on the lead – they can be quite strong. Both have been recall trained with a whistle and usually come back even if they are exploring. Musket cannot be left unattended with his lead on as he has chewed through it before. Musket is scared of loud noises and has had a couple of accidents in the house and Bebe has a few lumps. Musket and Bebe are older dogs and any vet treatment they need would be covered under our Old Dog Scheme.* Musket is not neutered but will be once he is settled in his new home (cost covered by DAS). But Musket and Bebe are still active Spaniels and love nothing more than going on long walks together. Particularly, they love a good swim and could run for miles – beaches are a big favourite. They also love to chase a ball. *OLD DOG SCHEME: Dog Aid Scotland’s Old Dog Scheme covers dogs rehomed at 8 years old or above. This means that we will cover costs for veterinary care for the dog for the remainder of their life within reason. We do not cover costs for routine treatments such as vaccinations, worming and flea treatment. If the dog requires special dietary food we will contribute 50% of the cost. This will alleviate the worry of the financial implications taking an older dog into your home. Older dogs make great pets!

About Musket and Bebe

What life with Musket and Bebe looks like

Musket and Bebe is a large adult cocker spaniel dog waiting at Dog Aid Society of Scotland in United Kingdom.

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 Musket and Bebe, answered.

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