Radar

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 12 months

Breed: Pocket Bully/French Bulldog Age: 1 Year Approx Unusual little chap Radar came to us for rehoming due to him not getting what he deserved in his last home due to ill health etc. He’s a big baby at only 12 Months old, and will require a lot of time and patience to guide him through his adolescence. Radar was falling out with other dogs in one of his previous homes, and has displayed resource guarding behaviour around people and other dogs; For this reason Radar will need to be the only dog in the home, and he wouldn’t be suitable to live with children. He’s not cat friendly. Radar is very friendly with people, and he’s very affectionate! He’s always very pleased to see when people enter the kennels, and loves getting out for his walks! He may be quite small, but he’s strong when he wants to be! He will need plenty of exercise in his new home, as well as secure garden to enjoys playing in preferably! He’s a young boy, so will need further training… he may not be 100% house trained, and he may chew if he becomes bored/frustrated.

About Radar

What life with Radar looks like

Radar is a large puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Ashbourne & District Animal Welfare Society in United Kingdom.

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 Radar, answered.

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