Snowy

Bichon Frisé · Female · Adult · 6 years

Snowy is a very sweet little lady who has come to us from a breeder to find her forever home. When she first arrived she was quite worried and overwhelmed, but was trying so hard to be brave! She is still feeling quite timid, but once she gets to know she really enjoys having a fuss and is happy to be handled. She is an inquisitive and loving girl and once she's in a home we don’t think it will take long to come out of her shell and show her true personality. Snowy would love to find a calm and quiet home with adopters who have experience with ex-breeding dogs and where she can settle in at her own pace and realise what it means to be a loved family member. We would consider homing her with gentle dog savvy older teenagers aged 16 and over. She takes great comfort from the company of other dogs, so she will need at least one kind, calm and confident resident dog in her new home to help her feel safe and settled. We have found that she is best suited to living with laid back dogs who are slightly larger than her. She can become a little jealous when other dogs are receiving attention and is more laid back with dogs who are a little bigger than her. As Snowy has never lived in a home before, her adopters will need to be patient and understanding while she learns about home life and house training. She has started to learn all about walking on a lead and harness and while this is still very for her, she is doing so well. With her sweet nature and growing confidence, we are sure it won’t take her long to settle into family life and flourish in a loving home. Snowy has had 1 tooth removed at the time of her spay and has prevously been treated for an ear infection. This dog can be homed with a resident dog.

About Snowy

What life with Snowy looks like

Snowy is a adult bichon frisé dog waiting at Many Tears Animal Rescue in Llanelli.

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 Snowy, answered.

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