Pringle

Female · Young · 3 years

Meet Pringle – A Sweet and Affectionate Lurcher Looking for a Patient Forever Home Pringle is a beautiful 3-year-old lurcher with a loving nature and so much potential. This affectionate young girl enjoys being around people and loves spending time with those she trusts. She enjoys getting out and about for her walks and is generally a lovely companion on the lead. Like many young dogs, Pringle can sometimes become distracted by the exciting things happening around her, so she will benefit from an owner who can provide gentle guidance and help her continue to develop her focus and confidence. While Pringle loves people, she can occasionally feel a little overwhelmed around other dogs, particularly those who are very boisterous. For this reason, we feel she would be happiest as the only dog in the home for now, allowing her the time and space she needs to settle, build her confidence and truly come into her own. Pringle is looking for an active home where she can enjoy regular walks, adventures and plenty of quality time with her family. With patience, understanding and encouragement, she is sure to blossom into a wonderful companion. She may also be suitable to live with dog-savvy children who can understand her needs and respect her space, subject to successful introductions. If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate dog who will thrive with a little extra support and become a loyal friend for life, Pringle could be the perfect addition to your family.

About Pringle

What life with Pringle looks like

Pringle is a young adult dog waiting at Durham Dogs & Cats Home in United Kingdom.

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 Pringle, answered.

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