Roger

Male · Puppy · 18 months

Sadly Roger is coming back into our care. Roger is a lovely, affectionate boy who adores cuddles and being close to his people. However, he is a typical spaniel with plenty of energy and intelligence, and he needs an experienced owner who understands the breed and can meet his needs. Roger can be a complex character and thrives when he has both physical excercise and mental stimulation. He would love activities such as agility, canicross, scent work or long countryside walks to keep him happy and fulfilled. He can become anxious when left alone, so a home where someone is around for most of the day would be ideal. Roger has prviously lived with another dog and may enjoy canine companionship in the right home. He will also benefit from some additional lead training. With the right person, Roger will make a wonderfully loyal and loving companion.

About Roger

What life with Roger looks like

Roger is a medium-sized puppy/kitten dog waiting at Spanish Stray Dogs UK 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 Roger, answered.

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