Tia

Labrador Retriever · Female · Young · 1 year

Introducing Lab X Tia! Tia is a high energy gundog mix bursting with vitality! This delightful dog adores cuddles, playing with toys, training sessions, and snack breaks, she truly is the whole package! Friendly and well trained, she would thrive with experienced owners who might already have an older gundog to help guide her (though this isn’t a compulsory requirement). If you’re a first time dog owner, Tia may not be the best fit for you. However, if you have the time, energy, and experience with gundogs or similar breeds, she could be your perfect companion! This just in from her foster parents!👇 “Tia continues to do really well! We have seen first hand her absolute love for water and swimming. She adores it. Her and Luna continue to have their playful moments but Tia also enjoys giving Luna a good face clean now, which is the sweetest thing. She is the most loving dog and checks in with us humans all the time for a fuss. She is not keen on the hoover! But she just moves herself away, she doesn’t get stressed or anything. She also takes her job of security guard dog of the house very seriously 😝 She settles easily in the house, for how young and energetic she is – She is more than happy to slump next to you and cuddle and wait for her next walk. She really does need to be close to her humans. We have had two wee accidents in the house first thing in the morning. We have learnt that she sometimes goes out before breakfast but doesn’t wee. Then when she eats, the floodgate opens shortly afterwards 😂 just need to make sure she has toileted before brekkie, so that’s on us. Tia has also been practising a puzzle game. She also seems to do well with a slow feeder which we use at dinner time only at mo. She’s been really good in the car too. I will sort some more lovely photos out soon. We have booked them in to The Cwtch on Saturday when weather cools 🤍 In short, she is a delight x”

About Tia

What life with Tia looks like

Tia is a small young adult labrador retriever dog waiting at All Creatures Great & Small Animal Sanctuary in United Kingdom.

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 Tia, answered.

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