Sadie

Lurcher · Female · Puppy

Sadie is a very sweet natured girl, she loves attention and can't wait to cuddle up on the sofa with someone. She loves to play with her toys and relax in the sun. She is very good with other dogs and loves their company. She is also very good with children. Sadie does have a high prey drive so she would be best housed without cats or small animals. She needs some basic training, but she has learnt sit and toilet training very quickly. Sadie will need some time to settle into a new home before starting training to be left home alone if she is not with another dog. She does get a little car sick but she is slowly getting used to short car journeys.

About Sadie

What life with Sadie looks like

Sadie is a small puppy/kitten lurcher dog waiting at Heathlands Animal Sanctuary 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 Sadie, answered.

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