Remi

German Shorthaired Pointer · Female · Senior · 14 years

Remi is a beautiful 16 month old GSP who’s owners have had to make the very sad decision to find her a new home due to a change in their circumstances and due to ill health, recently they haven’t been able to give her the time and exercise that they know she loves. Remi was bred by family members of her first owners in Romania and travelled to the UK to these owners. She was with then sold to her current family because they couldn’t take care of her needs or training. In this family Remi has loved the company of the children 9 and 14 years, she and the 9 year old are very close and described as besotted with each other. They are often found cuddled up together. Remi does love to climb on top of you and snuggle in, it’s one of her favourite things. Remi is wonderful with all children, very playful and loving. She does suffer with separation anxiety and because of this we will be looking for a home with another dog/dogs or someone who is around all of the time so that she can have the company she loves. She gets very anxious and stressed when left and barks non stop if by herself, she’s better with Jasper for company and Classical FM radio playing, then she can be left for a few hours after exercise.

About Remi

What life with Remi looks like

Remi is a senior german shorthaired pointer dog waiting at GSP Rescue UK in United Kingdom.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇬🇧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 Remi, answered.

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