Wallace & Fiadora

Dachshund · Unknown · Senior · 9 years

Wallace & Fiadora Surrey Adoption fee -£350 Wallace 9 years old, neutered male Mini long-haired Dachshund – silver dapple Fiadora 10 years old, neutered female Mini long-haired Dachshund – chocolate dapple Wallace and Fiadora are a devoted bonded pair who are looking for a new home together due to a change in their owner’s personal circumstances and work commitments. Both dogs are affectionate and people-focused, forming strong bonds with those they trust. Wallace is a gentle and loyal boy who can be a little cautious at first, but soon settles and enjoys being close to his people. Fiadora is a clever and loving girl who thrives on companionship, cuddles, and being included in family life. In the home, they enjoy a calm environment where they can relax in their own beds and spend time with their people. They are used to living with a young child and are loving and affectionate. Out and about, both dogs can be vocal on the lead and may bark at other dogs or unfamiliar situations. Fiadora in particular can become anxious and overwhelmed in new environments – we can provide behaviourist support if this is needed. Both dogs are in good health although Fiadora has a history of occasional seizures, typically around once a year, which may be triggered by strong household scents such as cleaning products or air fresheners. As they are so infrequent, she does not require any medication and we will discuss how we will support her health with prospective adopters. Both dogs are fed a raw diet and have lived together since puppies, sharing a close and dependent bond. Neither have had exposure to cats so a cat free home is best. They both choose where to sleep and so this will depend on how hot or cold it is on the day. Requirements in a home: Commitment to training outside the home No cats Could live with another dog, subject to a successful meet Could live with sensible older children 10+ If you think you can offer this very sweet pair a lovely, forever home, please get in touch with Amber at .

About Wallace & Fiadora

What life with Wallace & Fiadora looks like

Wallace & Fiadora is a senior dachshund dog waiting at The Red Foundation in Pentlow Street.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇬🇧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 Wallace & Fiadora, answered.

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