Rose

Staffordshire Bull Terrier · Female · Young · 1 year

Rose would suit a home on the outskirts of a city or in a smaller town, as she’s an easy-going girl and not phased around traffic and people. She is happy walking alongside busier roads but she would also enjoy getting in the car and heading off to quieter places for lovely sniffy walks. Rose would benefit from having some doggy friends to walk with and could live with dog savvy secondary school aged children. She is friendly with new people and is happy to have regular visitors in the home. Rose can find being left alone difficult, so she will need someone who can keep leaving to a minimum to begin with and is willing to gradually build this up with her. Beautiful Rose is a 11 month old Staffie looking for an active and loving home. Rose is a very affectionate and loving young dog who enjoys being close to her people and loves nothing more than cuddling up with her favourite people. She enjoys a fuss and will often come looking for a stroke if you stop giving her attention! She is friendly and enjoys meeting both people and other dogs, and she has a fun, playful side too, particularly when there’s a soft toy around for a game of tuggy. With her young age and energy, Rose will keep you busy and would love to have an owner who enjoys getting out and about exploring and savouring adventures together.

About Rose

What life with Rose looks like

Rose is a young adult staffordshire bull terrier dog waiting at Dogs Trust Shoreham in Shoreham by Sea.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Rose, answered.

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