Piglet

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Five-year-old Winston is a handsome, clever boy with the sweetest nature who is looking for a patient family to call his own. Weighing around 21kg and currently based in Dinas Powys, Winston may be a little shy at first, but once you’ve earned his trust, you’ll discover a wonderfully affectionate companion with plenty of love to give. Winston can be a little unsure when meeting new people, but don’t let first impressions fool you. Give him five or ten minutes, and his curiosity soon gets the better of him. Before long, he’ll be happily asking for fuss and showing off his gentle, goofy personality. He enjoys little bursts of play throughout the day but is just as content spending hours curled up on the sofa with his favourite people. If you happen to give him a scratch just above his tail, you’ll quickly become his favourite person! A smart lad, Winston is fully house-trained and will let you know when he needs to go outside. He enjoys learning and will thrive with owners who are happy to continue building his confidence using kind, positive reinforcement. Winston is currently taking fluoxetine to help manage his anxiety, and this has been a valuable part of helping him feel more relaxed as he continues making progress. Although Winston is comfortable around other dogs when out and about, he would prefer to be the only dog in the home so he can enjoy all the love and attention for himself. He could happily live with cats and would also suit a home with older, dog-savvy children who understand that he may need a little time to settle into new situations. His ideal home will be calm, supportive, and full of people who appreciate that building trust is one of the most rewarding journeys you can take with a dog. Once Winston knows you’re his person, you’ll be rewarded with a loyal best friend who loves a cosy sofa, the perfect back scratch, and simply being close to the people he loves. ✅ Neutered✅ Vaccinated✅ Microchipped✅ Blood Tests✅ Flea Treated✅ Wormed✅ Passport

About Piglet

What life with Piglet looks like

Piglet is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at O.U.R. Dog Foundation.

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 Romania

Romanian rescues handle the highest volume of cross-border adoptions in the EU. Animals are quarantined and fully vetted before transport. Reputable rescues maintain detailed health records and post-adoption follow-up.

Frequently asked

Adopting Piglet, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Piglet?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. O.U.R. Dog Foundation handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Piglet on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Piglet if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — O.U.R. Dog Foundation 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Piglet 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 Piglet 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 O.U.R. Dog Foundation early rather than rehoming privately; they know Piglet 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.
