Woody & Jessie

Unknown · Young · 3 years

Woody & Jessie came to the centre via the local stray dog service, they are friendly little dogs who are now looking for a home to call their own. Sadly we have no background information on them and we just can not understand why they would have been abandoned. They love a fuss and will lap up as much attention as you can give them, they would love a home where they will just get cherished. They enjoy their little walks and love being out and about, they can be quite vocal when on the lead so their new adopters will need to work on this with them. They are not vocal when walked on their own so they do seem to egg each other on. They would be best suited with a family who have experience with the dachshund breed but not essential. Woody and Jessie would need to be the only dogs in the home and could live with teenage children and over.

About Woody & Jessie

What life with Woody & Jessie looks like

Woody & Jessie is a young adult dog waiting at RSPCA York Home 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 Woody & Jessie, answered.

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