Peanut

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 10 months

Meet Peanut, a 10 month old male, medium sized Crossbreed that came into us as a stray. He is a very sweet puppy that is very eager to learn and is happy to work for treats. Peanut is a playful pup that loves soft and squeaky toys. He likes to play with people but is also happy to entertain himself with his toys. He enjoys all puppy treats and has not yet found a treat that he does not like! Peanut’s favourite thing is cuddles. He loves to give and receive them. He will happily lie across your lap and give you lots of kisses. As Peanut is still a young dog, he still needs to continue with his training. He is learning impulse control so that he does not jump over everyone he meets and is learning to wear a harness for his walks. He has a lot of energy and engaging his mind will help tire him out and make his training enjoyable. Peanut is a beautiful chap and when he gets very excited, his tongue often lolls out of his mouth, making him look like a cartoon character. We are looking for a home for Peanut where there is someone home for a lot of the day. He likes to be entertained and as he is still young, will need more training. He can be a bit mouthy at times still so would be better suited to a home with older children. Ideally, he would be best suited to a home that has knowledge of training pups and how nippy they can be. Peanut is a stunning boy with a lot of potential for the right home. Could this be with you?

About Peanut

What life with Peanut looks like

Peanut is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Bristol Animal Rescue Centre in Bristol.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇬🇧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 Peanut, answered.

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