Pushkin

Samoyed · Female · Young · 2 years

Pushkin has come to us from a breeder and is now searching for a loving forever home. She can be nervous when meeting new people and situations, but her confidence has grown so much during her time with us. She simply needs a little time to warm up and figure people out, and once she feels comfortable her wonderful personality starts to shine through. Pushkin is a truly lovely girl with a fun, quirky nature and a very affectionate side. She has become a firm favourite with the staff who know her, and once she trusts you she is incredibly rewarding to spend time with. She loves being around people she knows and has a gentle, sweet temperament that is impossible not to fall in love with. Pushkin takes a great deal of comfort from the company of other dogs and becomes worried and stressed when left on her own. Because of this, she will need at least one kind and confident resident dog in her new home to take her under their wing and help guide her through life. She gets along beautifully with other dogs and has happily shared kennels and enjoyed play dates with a variety of canine companions. She is respectful around toys and eats well alongside other dogs, making her an easy companion to have around. She is now walking on a harness and has made lovely progress, although some things can still make her nervous when out and about. Her adopters will need to be patient and reassuring, helping her to feel safe and encouraging her when she encounters new experiences. She gains confidence from having another dog alongside her and would benefit from a calm canine friend to help her navigate the world. Pushkin has never experienced life in a home before, so her new family will need to be kind, patient and understanding as she learns all about home life. She will need help with house training and learning the everyday routines that most pet dogs take for granted. She enjoys treats, so positive reinforcement will be a wonderful way to help her learn and build confidence. She will need an adult-only home with adopters who have experience of ex-breeding dogs and who will allow her to settle in at her own pace. She will also need a secure garden with fencing of at least 6ft to ensure her safety while she adjusts to her new home. Pushkin is a special little lady who has so much love to give. With plenty of patience, reassurance and the support of a canine friend, she will continue to blossom into a wonderful companion. She has brought so much joy to those caring for her, and we know that the lucky family who adopts her will absolutely adore her. This dog can be homed with a resident dog.

About Pushkin

What life with Pushkin looks like

Pushkin is a young adult samoyed dog waiting at Many Tears Animal Rescue in Llanelli.

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 Pushkin, answered.

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