Shiraz

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 10 years

Please welcome Shiraz ❤️ She is an 8 month old crossbreed who is now looking for her forever home after remaining unclaimed as a stray. She is an energetic dog who enjoys to be around people and get plenty of attention and cuddles. She has enjoyed walking with other dogs whilst being in our care and can therefore be rehomed with other dogs pending successful meets. 🐶 She can also be rehomed with children over the age of 10 years. She is untested with cats. If you think that you can rehome Shiraz, please call us on between 11am and 2pm any day of the week. 💕

About Shiraz

What life with Shiraz looks like

Shiraz is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Hull Animal Welfare Trust in South Cave.

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 Shiraz, answered.

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