Quincey

Male · Young · 3 years

As a stray, Quincey has no background information, but his love for water play and energetic spirit make him a perfect match for an active family. A home with a garden would be ideal for him to expend his energy and assist with his toilet training. Quincey is still working on house training and would benefit from confidence-building exercises as well as loose lead walking. Despite his initial aloofness, Quincey occasionally shows affection by carrying his teddies around when he’s feeling settled. He’s also good with car rides, although he’s a bit wary of the boot closing. With his unique “Queen Ann” front legs, similar to a basset hound, Quincey is a charming addition to any home. If you’re ready for an adventure with this lively Spaniel, Quincey is waiting to meet you! Meet Quincey, an energetic 3-year-old Spaniel eager to find his forever home! Quincey is a sweet and curious pup who thrives in an active environment. He’s best suited to a family with children over 8 years old and enjoys being the sole canine companion in the household. While he may initially be a bit shy, Quincey warms up quickly and becomes more comfortable with time. Quincey is a nature lover, with a particular interest in exploring new scents during walks. Though he prefers doing his own thing, he can socialise with other dogs when out and about. He’s quite alert and has a noticeable prey drive, especially with birds, he will need to be kept on lead in public.

About Quincey

What life with Quincey looks like

Quincey is a young adult dog waiting at Dogs Trust Snetterton in Snetterton.

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 Quincey, answered.

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