Venice

Dachshund · Female · Adult · 5 years

06-11-26 Venice is a sweet and gentle girl who has come into our care from a breeder and is slowly finding her confidence around people. She will now happily come up to you and place her paws on you when she would like some attention, and she is easy to pick up and handle. She has even started to roll over to ask for a tummy tickle, which is adorable. Venice will be looking for a loving home and would benefit from adopters who have experience with ex-breeding dogs and will allow her to settle in at her own pace. We would consider homing her with gentle, dog savvy older children 9+. Venice gets on wonderfully with other dogs, so she would be happy to share her home with others, but she is confident enough that she would be equally as happy being the only dog in the home too, as long as her adopters were around enough to keep her company. She is a very sweet little girl who loves to share her toys with her friends. Venice has never lived in a home before, so her adopters will need to be patient and understanding as she learns about house training and all the new experiences that come with being part of a family. She really is a gentle soul who has so much affection to give, and we think she would love nothing more than having her very own cosy couch to curl up on with her new family. Venice has a travel document. This dog can be homed with a resident dog.

About Venice

What life with Venice looks like

Venice is an adult dachshund dog waiting at Many Tears Animal Rescue in Llanelli.

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 Venice, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Venice?: Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Many Tears Animal Rescue handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Venice on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Venice if I live in another country?: Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask Many Tears Animal Rescue whether they will for Venice, what they require (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 Venice already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: Many Tears Animal Rescue lists Venice as spayed. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Many Tears Animal Rescue, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Venice isn't the right fit?: Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Many Tears Animal Rescue about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Venice 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.
