Savannah

Female

Savannah is a gentle and affectionate lady, while she can be a little wary of unfamiliar people at first, she quickly warms up when given space to approach in her own time and has built strong bonds with her carers. Savannah has shown heself off as calm and relaxed once settled, enjoying a cosy spot on the sofa and plenty of fuss from her favourite people. She may find being left alone worrying initially, so any time spent alone should be built up gradually. She appears housetrained and has kept her kennel clean since arriving with us. Savannah walks nicely on lead, enjoys exploring her surroundings and has shown some interest in other dogs and can enjoy canine company, but prefers calm, respectful companions who will give her space when needed. She could potentially live with a suitable dog following successful introductions on site. True to her breed type, Savannah has an independent side, but she also loves affection and will happily roll over for tummy rubs when she feels comfortable. She enjoys the occasional toy and can entertain herself calmly, although her overall play style is fairly low key. For someone willing to let her settle at her own pace, Savannah promises to be a loyal, gentle and rewarding companion. Ready to adopt? Donate Can't adopt? Please donate to help pets in need today.

About Savannah

What life with Savannah looks like

Savannah is a adult dog waiting at Bath Cats and Dogs Home in United Kingdom.

An 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 Savannah, answered.

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