Zion

Greyhound · Male · Young · 3 years

Zion is a 3 Year Old Greyhound who has his giddy moments and enjoys zooming about! This charmer of a boy loves to be around people and offers you plenty of affection and a cuddle. Toy play indoors or out in the garden is something Zion really enjoys, he is fast on his feet and excitable with his fluffy toys! Zion is looking for a home where he can have plenty of fun and some quiet time when he chooses. If you have time to settle this absolute gem of a boy into a home routine and have a private, secure garden then Zion could be the perfect addition to your family. He is best suited to children of a upper primary school age. As he is a sighthound with a high prey drive Zion is looking for a pet free home. Due to this adopters should be comfortable keeping him on lead and muzzling him out and about. He is a sociable boy who enjoys meeting larger dogs and could be a walking buddy.

About Zion

What life with Zion looks like

Zion is a young adult greyhound dog waiting at Dogs Trust Manchester in Manchester.

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 Zion, answered.

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