Tia is a medium to large crossbreed aged around nine to ten years old. Tia was originally brought along to a spayathon in Romania in 2019 where the intention was to let her back on the street after her spay but nobody wanted to see her back fending for herself so she was taken under the wing of Dog rescue Norway until we were able to bring her to the UK shortly after. She was soon adopted and lived happily in her home until we were asked to take her back after five years before she’s recently become difficult to walk for her elderly adopter. Tia is a quiet and calm girl who loves her home and her family. She’s not fond of lots of visitors or commotion so would like a calm and quiet home moving forward. She can live with or without other dogs and ignores cats. She would like an adult home.
Tia fostered North Walsham Norfolk.

Adoption Policy
When you adopt a Safe Rescue dog, you MUST use a slip lead. This will keep your dog safe: your new dog will be nervous and will not trust you, and you will not know which situations might upset your dog. If your dog panics, then a slip lead is the only way to prevent your dog from escaping (many dogs can escape from a collar and/or harness). It will take AT LEAST 3-6 months for your dog to settle-in and for you to know your dog fully (longer for nervous dogs). The slip lead must ALWAYS be used during this settling-in period.
Even after your dog is settled, it is safest to use the slip lead in situations where your dog may become scared (e.g. visiting new places, around unfamiliar people, at the vet), and it situations where unexpected triggers might happen (e.g. around bonfire night). Nervous dogs may always need to wear a slip-lead as a back-up safety measure.
The slip lead is a safety device and must NEVER be used as a training tool. Using the lead to apply pressure to the dog’s neck is damaging. If your dog pulls on the lead, then we can advise you on training methods that avoid harm.
Once your dog is settled, you may want to consider using a harness (together with the slip lead) if your dog is comfortable with being handled when it is fitted. Most harnesses are not escape-proof, but harnesses with a strap behind the ribcage (e.g. Ruffwear Webmaster or Perfect Fit Harnesses) are safer.
Retractable / extendable leads must never be used on our dogs.
Adopted dogs must be collected from the rescue and transported straight home in a crate.
Fences and gates must be 5ft min & secure. All dogs are vaccinated, microchipped and neutered (unless the dog is too young to be neutered).
