Tali

Lurcher · Female · Young · 3 years

Tali is a bubbly Lurcher with lots of affection to give. Friendly, playful, and full of character, she enjoys being around people and is always happy to make new friends. She is currently based at Battersea Old Windsor. Tali loves having fun and enjoys running, playing, and exploring. She also gets on well with other dogs out and about but does need to be the only dog in her new home. Whilst Tali enjoys getting out and about, she is still finding her feet in the wider world and can occasionally feel unsure in new environments. She needs her own secure private garden, where she can take things at her own pace and allow her confidence to grow steadily. Tali has shown herself to be a sociable and affectionate dog who enjoys attention and fuss. As a young dog, she is still learning her manners and working on her training, but she is eager to learn and is highly motivated by food, which makes training very rewarding. As she is such a big foodie, Tali enjoys having her meals in enrichment items such puzzle feeders and Kongs which helps keep her brain busy. Tali will make a fun-loving companion who is sure to bring plenty of joy and affection into a home.

About Tali

What life with Tali looks like

Tali is a medium-sized young adult lurcher dog waiting at Battersea Dogs & Cats Home in London.

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 Tali, answered.

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