Taz

Male · Adult · 5 years

Available at our kennels based in Penkridge. Meet Taz! This beautiful boy has already beaten the odds. He and Jason were rescued just moments before they were due to be put to sleep in a horrific shelter in Romania. After everything they have endured, they are now hoping for the one thing they’ve never truly had a safe, loving home. Taz has been described as a wonderful boy with a lovely nature who walks well on the lead and is great with people. Taz can be an escape artist if frightened and is able to jump high, so he will need a very secure garden and a family who understand the importance of keeping him safe while he settles into his new life. - Rescued from Romania - Microchipped - Vaccinated - Not cat tested - Able to live with dogs - Able to live with respectful children

About Taz

What life with Taz looks like

Taz is a small adult dog waiting at Brighter Days Rescue in United Kingdom.

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 Taz, answered.

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