Ocean **APPLICATION ONLY**

Female · Young · 3 years

If you live in rented accommodation, in addition to the completed pre-adoption questionnaire please include written permission from your landlord or housing authority, confirming that they are happy for you to keep a dog in the property. If you already have a dog/s the permission must state the number of dogs allowed – without this we cannot include the application. Completed application forms and landlord permissions if applicable must be emailed to nicola. org. uk with ‘Ocean' in the subject bar or hand your completed form into reception. Emails sent to other addresses will not be considered. **Ocean will not be available for viewing until she meet her potential adopter** A Dog Carer will assess your application based on the information provided on the pre-adoption form. If your application is successful then you will be contacted within 48 hours. ABOUT OCEAN In March 2025, Ocean was found by a member of the public and taken to SDR in very bad shape. She was emaciated, had infected wounds, and suffered from severe hypothermia. Thanks to the care she received at Crossroads Veterinary Centre, as well as the ongoing love and support from the team at SDR, Ocean made a full recovery and now she is unrecognisable from the sad, emaciated dog she once was. WHAT’S GREAT ABOUT OCEAN? Super affectionate once she trusts you and loves cuddles Enjoys interacting with her handlers Loves going out for walks and adventures Muzzle trained Good at the vets Enjoys training and enrichment which helps her confidence WHAT OCEAN NEEDS… Owners experienced with Bull Breeds Patient owners that will allow her to settle in at her own pace Secure garden Owners who are prepared to put in some work with her reactivity Continue her crate training and provide a safe space for her The adoption fee for Ocean is £250. 00 50 MILE RE-HOMING RADIUS APPLIES STOKENCHURCH DOG RESCUE RESERVES THE RIGHT TO REFUSE TO RE-HOME A DOG WITHOUT GIVING DUE REASON

About Ocean **APPLICATION ONLY**

What life with Ocean **APPLICATION ONLY** looks like

Ocean **APPLICATION ONLY** is a young adult dog waiting at Stokenchurch Dog Rescue in Stokenchurch.

An young 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" — 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 Ocean **APPLICATION ONLY**, answered.

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