Prince

Labrador Retriever · Male · Puppy

Prince could live with children of any age. He could live with other dogs, and potentially cats or small animals. Prince is a lovely typical, confident, cheeky and energetic young pup. He is full of beans and still very much displaying all of his puppy behaviours – so this is something that families with any young children should consider carefully. Puppies require a lot of time, training and dedication and so Prince is looking for a home who are absolutely committed and prepared for the hard work and effort that comes with raising a happy, healthy and well-rounded adult dog. Ongoing, appropriate socialisation is incredibly important at such a young age and we are looking for a family who understand what this entails. This beautiful little soul is so ready to find his forever home and begin his life with his lucky family. We have no doubt he will bring so much joy into his new home and make a wonderful addition to his family. We are expecting to receive a high volume of interest for Prince, so kindly request that you do not contact us to chase your application, to enable us to keep our phone lines free for emergencies. We will be assessing all applications received and contacting the successful applicant in due course.

About Prince

What life with Prince looks like

Prince is a small puppy labrador retriever dog waiting at Newcastle Dog and Cat Shelter in Newcastle.

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 Prince, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Prince?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Newcastle Dog and Cat Shelter handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Prince on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Prince if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Newcastle Dog and Cat Shelter 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Prince 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 Prince 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 Newcastle Dog and Cat Shelter early rather than rehoming privately; they know Prince 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.
