Peaches

Lurcher · Female · Young · 2 years

Peaches is a real ray of sunshine who brings happiness wherever she goes. She loves heading out on adventures and enjoys taking her time on wonderfully sniffy walks. She walks beautifully on the lead, loves a tasty treat, and is happiest when receiving plenty of fuss from her favourite people. If Peaches sounds like the perfect companion for you, be sure to add her to your favourites! Meet Peaches, a two-year-old Lurcher with a heart as sweet as her name! She could live with young secondary school-aged children and would initially need low leaving hours while she settles in. Peaches could happily live with another dog or enjoy regular walks with canine companions, and with her fun-loving nature and sweet personality, she would make a wonderful first-time dog.

About Peaches

What life with Peaches looks like

Peaches is a young adult lurcher dog waiting at Dogs Trust Shrewsbury in Telford.

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 Peaches, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Peaches?
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 Peaches on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Peaches 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 Peaches 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 Peaches 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 Peaches 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.
