Uri

Rottweiler · Male · Young · 1 year

Uri can be worried by other dogs, so he'll need an understanding adopter who is committed to continuing his training and helping him build confidence at his own pace. Because of this, Uri will need to be the only dog in the home. Uri is a strong boy, so he'd be best suited to an adult-only household or one with older teenagers who are confident around larger dogs. He would also love a secure garden of his own where he can sniff, explore, play, and enjoy some outdoor time. If you feel like Uri could be your perfect match please submit an application and add him as a 'Favourite'. Uri is a handsome 1 year old Rottweiler cross who is looking for his forever family! Uri is incredibly friendly with humans and loves spending time with his people, whether that's playing together, heading out on an adventure, or simply relaxing. He's great in the car, making him an ideal companion for days out, and he really enjoys enrichment activities such as slow feeders and lick mats to keep his clever mind occupied. He is a great boy in the bath and enjoys a good pamper!

About Uri

What life with Uri looks like

Uri is a young adult rottweiler dog waiting at Dogs Trust Ballymena in Ballymena.

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 Uri, answered.

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