Sally

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 9 years

✅ Can live with children aged 9+ ✅ Can live with cats following proper introductions ✅ Neutered, vaccinated and microchipped ✅ Will receive five week's FREE pet insurance Meet Sally, a happy, affectionate girl who settled into foster life almost immediately - it was as if she’d always been there! She loves people of all ages and is especially sweet and playful with children. Sally’s favourite thing is attention, and she’ll happily soak up fuss, strokes, and playtime with her humans. On walks, Sally can be occasionally reactive if close to home, but her attention can be quickly returned back to her human. When walking further from home, Sally shows no interest towards other dogs. She travels well in the car and adores being out and about. Sally has met other dogs and gets along well with them, though she does prefer to have her own space. She can sometimes get jealous if she’s enjoying affection and another dog comes over, but she’s otherwise relaxed and even sleeps alongside her foster siblings. Sally no longer experiences separation anxiety and can be left happily for up to four hours. She absolutely loves toys and likes to lay them all out on the floor before deciding which one to play with! This clever girl has mastered her toilet training, lead walking, and stairs, and she enjoys both short daily walks and longer weekend adventures in the forest or at the beach. Her fosters use hand signals for training as Sally is deaf but she quickly learns their meaning. Missing her right eye doesn’t hinder her daily life or wellbeing, nor is it expected to cause future issues. Sally can not be allowed off lead in public places due to her deafness. Sally could live with another calm, independent dog, but she would also thrive as an only dog where she gets all the attention she adores. She’d be happiest with someone home most of the time to keep her company, though she can be left for up to four hours. Though she hasn't lived with cats, her neutral behaviour towards small dogs suggests she could coexist with respectful cats following gradual introductions. She could also live with children aged 9+ who understand her hearing limitations and are aware of her blind side.

About Sally

What life with Sally looks like

Sally is a small senior mixed breed dog waiting at People 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 Sally, answered.

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