Spud

Staffordshire Bull Terrier · Male · Young · 2 years

Everyone say Hi to …. Spud! ❤️‍🩹💔 This lad originally came in to our care in May 2024 when he was tiny pup who was ill treated, he went straight onto foster and blossomed. He was then adopted but returned as one of the other dog in the house hold was picking on him. Spud had done no wrong!💔 He was then re adopted. Sadly we have had call about this lad is coming back in to our care due to his adopters having to urgently move in to private rented accommodation and they were unable to find somewhere which would allow pets. Again, Spud has done no wrong!💔 Thankfully we have managed to place him in this original foster home so he has some familiarity. He is such a lovely, gentle soul. It’s heartbreaking to see him confused again. This next adoption has to be his last move!🙏🏼🏡 Spud is good with other dogs and has been fab with the dogs in his foster home. He has also just been living with newborn baby without an issue !💕 He has previously lived with horses, dog savvy older children as well and cats. He is still in training with the cats however is a good boy and listens.💙 Spud is house trained and travels well. He is happy to sleep in or out of his crate. His basic training is coming along very well in his foster home as well.😍 He’s a typical staffie character, full of life and character. Spud is going to make the perfect family pet. He loves being part of everything that’s going on. And obviously just have plenty of cuddles!🥰 Spud has restarted his vaccinations, flead, wormed, microchipped and neutered. He is a super star in the vets, everyone gets kisses and cuddles. ⭐️ This young lad is going to make someone very happy. He really does love life and is going to be someone’s best friend. He is switched on lad and will go far with the right training!💙 Please share so this lad can find his forever home! He really does deserve it.🏡 Remember to complete the below if you’re interested in adoption;

About Spud

What life with Spud looks like

Spud is a very small young adult staffordshire bull terrier dog waiting at Almost Home Dog Rescue in North Wales.

An young 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 Spud, answered.

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