How do I contact the shelter about Reggie?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dogs Trust Cardiff handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Reggie on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Reggie if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dogs Trust Cardiff 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 Reggie 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 Reggie 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 Cardiff early rather than rehoming privately; they know Reggie 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.

Reggie

Border Collie · Male · Puppy · 10 months

Reggie loves a good long-lasting chew to keep him busy, but will need breed-specific enrichment to ensure he thrives in his new home. He loves getting out for walks, though, he can zig-zag a bit on lead and doesn't quite understand how to walk nicely yet. He adores running in our enclosed paddocks off-lead, and getting all his sniffs in on interesting walks. Reggie is a lovely dog with a sweet temperament, but he can be a little timid meeting men at first, so will need a bit of time to build a bond and trust. He may need some reminding of house-training in a new environment, but does his best to keep his space clean. He would prefer for his people to be home with him for most of the day at first while he settles in, and build the time up slowly. Reggie will be such a fun companion for an active family, and we can't wait to see him in his forever home! Meet Reggie, our handsome 10-month old Collie. Reggie is looking for an active family who can give him lots of engaging exercise to keep his brain busy. Reggie would prefer to be the only dog in the home as he can be quite vocal seeing dogs out and about, but would love to make calm, tolerant friends so he can work on his social skills. Reggie can live with secondary school aged children who are confident around bouncy dogs and able to offer him space if he needs it. Being a young Collie, Reggie would love a family that are experienced with the breed as he is very typical of his breed. He is very sweet, but can show some appeasement behaviours if over-handled. Reggie is very active, so would love a high energy home that can keep him busy and take him on fun adventures. He can pull on lead, but is very receptive to training as he loves his food and his toys! Reggie does need to build some confidence in some areas, and shows some very typical puppy behaviours like jumping up and getting into bins so does need to learn some basic manners! He is very affectionate and loves a cuddle with his people, and adores playing fetch with his tennis ball. Reggie is a really lovely boy, who just needs a bit of guidance and love!

About Reggie

What life with Reggie looks like

Reggie is a puppy/kitten border collie dog waiting at Dogs Trust Cardiff in Cardiff.

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.
