Willow

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

AGE: 1 year on (27/07) BREED: Staffie cross Labrador IDEAL HOME: a home with a garden LIVING WITH CHILDREN: 12 years plus LIVING WITH DOGS: I could potentially live with another well socialised dog (still under assessment) LIVING WITH CATS: I’ve never lived with cats Meet Willow – A Beautiful Young Staffie x Labrador Looking for Her Forever Home Willow is a gorgeous 1-year-old Staffordshire Bull Terrier cross Labrador who is full of love and a zest for life. She has a wonderfully sweet, affectionate nature and brings all the fun, enthusiasm, and cheeky antics you would expect from her breeds. She has got on well with other dogs but since being in season has been a little hormonal so we are taking things day-by-day, she is still under assessment for this.. Due to her bouncy, clumsy play style, Willow is best suited to a home with children aged 12 years and over who can enjoy her energy while understanding she is still learning her manners. As a Staffie x Labrador, Willow is an intelligent, people-focused girl who thrives on companionship. Staffordshire Bull Terriers are renowned for their loyal, affectionate nature and love of people, while Labradors are eager to please, highly trainable, and full of fun. Willow has inherited these wonderful traits, making her a loving, playful companion who will flourish with positive, reward-based training and plenty of quality time with her family. Willow has recently found her love for water, she will dip her full nose in and flick the water in the air. She loves playing toys in the paddling pools! At just one year old, Willow is transitioning from puppyhood into adulthood. This is an important stage in her development, and she'll benefit from consistent training, clear boundaries, and a predictable routine to help her become a confident, well-mannered adult. She's keen to learn and will thrive with owners who enjoy continuing her education through positive reinforcement. Willow is an active young dog who will need plenty of daily exercise to keep her happy and healthy. She'll enjoy a mix of walks, opportunities to run and play, and adventures with her family. Just as important is mental stimulation—food puzzles, scent games, training sessions, enrichment toys, and interactive play will all help keep her busy mind engaged and prevent boredom. A home that can meet both her physical and mental needs will see Willow grow into an incredible companion. Willow has so much love to give and is ready to find a family who will cherish her, continue her training, and embrace everything that comes with having a young, active dog. In return, you'll gain a loyal, affectionate best friend who will fill your home with fun, laughter, and unconditional love. Interested in adopting Willow? Call or contact us.

About Willow

What life with Willow looks like

Willow is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at SARA Ann Prosser Foundation in United Kingdom.

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 Willow, answered.

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