Trigger

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Racing Name: Trigger Point Date of Birth: February 2021 Stupidly handsome is this chap, unusual colouring and a big strong lad. We do think he knows hes stunning, so you cant help but like him although he needs to learn some manners yet! Friendly and sociable but does go out of the gate for his walks like a bullet, soon settles once out but needs to learn to control his enthusiasm. Soon settled with the terrier once the initial over-excitement wore off but to be fair Bugley the terrier is more than a little over-excited himself! Trigger is only just out af racing and still just a youngster, so should settle down given time and rules. A great chap but needs a capable owner who will show him that he needs to start using his brain and not his brawn lol A typical lad .

About Trigger

What life with Trigger looks like

Trigger is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at DunRunnin Rehoming Kennels in United Kingdom.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Trigger, answered.

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