Tofu

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 10 months

Tofu is a charming, friendly young lad of around 10 months old, weighing in at a lovely 12kg. He's the last of his siblings still waiting for a family to cherish him, and heartbreakingly, he's never really known what it's like to have a home of his own. Abandoned alongside his mum when he was just a baby, Tofu and his siblings faced a frightening start to life while their mum desperately tried to find them somewhere safe. They were tormented by night-time dangers and rodents, but thankfully, against the odds, they survived. Now this lovely boy is ready to leave those difficult beginnings behind and discover the happiness of belonging to someone. His mum, Mimi, is also looking for her forever home. She's a petite little girl weighing under 10kg, so there may even be an opportunity for someone to welcome both into their family. Whether together or separately, Tofu deserves to be someone's much-loved companion. Could you be the one to give this young boy the future he's been waiting for?

About Tofu

What life with Tofu looks like

Tofu is a small puppy mixed breed dog waiting at Break the Chains for Dogs BG/UK in United Kingdom.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇬🇧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 Tofu, answered.

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