STANLEY - KENT

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

This lovely lad is Stanley and he is sadly looking for his new home. He is 2 years old and is vaccinated and microchipped. Stanley overprotects his home and family. He struggles with strangers coming into the home and would need someone who is willing to work with this. With the right guidance and understanding that this will not be an overnight fix Stanley will learn that he can relax and be a dog. Stanley is currently in kennels, and does not show his guarding behaviour there. Any of the girls can go in his kennel and take him out. Her loves them all. It is within a home that he feels the need to protect. Stanley is inknown around children so we would be looking at adult only or older calm toung adults who have an understanding of large exciteable dogs. Stanley is said to be fine with female dogs but dislikes male dogs. He is NOT cat tested so we would be looking for a cat free home. Loves to watch horses. Stanley is a guarder of his pack. He is extremely protective of his humans and his home. At the initial assessment the volunteers met him outside of his home where they were greeted very nicely and had fusses. The volunteer took him for a walk and whilst he kept looking back to see where his owner was he didn't try and pull back to her. He loves his walks and can walk very nice nicely on a lead, unless he sees a cat, then you will need ski's as he will oull like a train to get to the cat. He is currently walked with a headcollar. Stanley would suit a home with a famale shepherd. He is currently kennelled with a shepherd female dog and is more than happy. In short: Whilst Stanley NEEDS an experienced home who can teach him how to behave, in the right hands he won't be that difficult to train. Hopefully with another dog who can show him the way he won't feel the need to over protect. Sadly until he arrived in kennels her had been allowed to rule his house and his humans and just needs to be taken back to basics. He will need structure from day one, slow introduction to any new home, he mustn't be given the run of the house initially and slow introduction to any new people. Please don't overlook Stanley, he doesn't deserve to be in kennels. He is young and eager to learn and he REALLY IS A LOVELY BOY. He has so many good qualities that certainly outway the bad More information Gender: Male Age: 2 YEARS Color: Black & Tan Coat: Short Neutered: Yes Good with other dogs: Only Females Good with cats: No Good with children: Older children only

About STANLEY - KENT

What life with STANLEY - KENT looks like

STANLEY - KENT is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at German Shepherd Dog Rescue in United Kingdom.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 STANLEY - KENT, answered.

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