How do I contact the shelter about Reggie?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dogs Trust Canterbury 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 Canterbury 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 Canterbury 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

Rottweiler · Male · Young · 1 year

Reggie is looking for a home with loving and active adopters who can take him on sniffy adventures and provide him with physically and mentally stimulating enrichment to keep his busy brain occupied and given him all of the love he deserves. He could live with older secondary school children who are comfortable by a playful and clumsy dog, children who will play with him nicely and will leave him to rest when needed. Reggie likes all of the attention to himself so would prefer to be the only pet in the home, in future he would benefit from some calm and confident walking buddies who will help him to build confidence around socialising with other dogs. He can be easily distracted when learning new skills but will do just about anything for a tasty treat, he’s a clever boy who already knows how to “sit”, “paw”, “crate”, “mat” and is muzzle trained as he will need to be on a lead and muzzle at all times in public. Reggie would like a home with a private, secure garden for him to potter about and have some off lead time at his leisure. He could settle in the home alone with the help of some enrichment to keep him busy and after a walk to tucker him out, so could be left for up to 2 hours, any leaving time will need to be built up gradually once he has had time to settle in. Reggie will need to meet his adopters a few times prior to going home so please bear this in mind when applying. Reggie is the ultimate dream for all the big dog lovers out there! He’s still a bouncy puppy who just spent his 1st birthday with us and is the perfect mix of Rottweiler and Labrador (adorable, right?). He loves his toys, he will play with a teddy, but a ball is his favourite, he will chase and bound around after them, and then start throwing them around for himself, after he’s done, he will quite happily take himself off with his ball and sploot on the floor. Under his silly, goofy personality, Reggie has a sweet and snuggly side, he adores being a lap dog and having all the cuddles. Could you be the perfect home for this young boy?

About Reggie

What life with Reggie looks like

Reggie is a large young adult rottweiler dog waiting at Dogs Trust Canterbury in Chestfield.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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.
