Stormy

Bullmastiff · Female · Senior · 12 years

She can be a bit strong on the lead so will need some training to turn her into the perfect walking buddy. Stormy would do best in a home of her own or with a friendly male dog. When excited she can be quite giddy so would not be suited to a home with children under 12yrs old. She has been spayed and is chipped, etc so is ready for a loving home.

About Stormy

What life with Stormy looks like

Stormy is a senior bullmastiff dog waiting at Burren Animal Rescue in Tubber.

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 Ireland

Irish shelters require a home check (often phone or video) and an adoption contract. Animals are vaccinated, chipped, and registered. Cross-border placements to mainland Europe require the rabies titer test (TRACES system).

Frequently asked

Adopting Stormy, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Stormy?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Burren Animal Rescue handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Stormy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Stormy if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Burren 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Stormy 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 Stormy 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 Burren Animal Rescue early rather than rehoming privately; they know Stormy 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.
