Pigeon

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 1 month

Hello, I’m Pigeon! I may have a bird’s name, but I’m definitely more interested in following you around than flying off anywhere! I’m a sweet and sensitive Staffordshire Bull Terrier cross puppy looking for a family who understands that the world can be a big, exciting place when you’re still learning about it. I love exploring, and sometimes I like to investigate things with my mouth — after all, how else am I supposed to figure out what everything is? I can live with children aged 5+, provided they’re comfortable with a puppy who likes to explore the world with their mouth. I’ll need someone who can help me learn that being alone is okay. I shouldn’t be left initially, but with patience and gradual training, I can build up my confidence and learn that my humans really will come back. A secure garden is essential to help me with my house training and give me somewhere safe to explore. I’ll also need dedicated owners who are committed to taking me to puppy training and socialisation classes. These will help me learn good manners, build my confidence and get me off to the best possible start. I may be able to live with another dog following a successful introduction at the North Lincolnshire centre, and I could potentially live with dog-savvy cats too. My adoption date will be between 16th and 18th October, but my future family will need to visit me a couple of times before then. If you think I could be the little bird who flies straight into your heart, please click the link below to apply. 💕

About Pigeon

What life with Pigeon looks like

Pigeon is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Jerry Green Dog Rescue in Lincoln.

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 Pigeon, answered.

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