Abby

Lurcher · Female · Young · 1 year

Age: 2025-09-01 Sex: Female Breed: Lurcher Neutered: No Contact person: Team 1. Adoption fee: 10000 kr Forwarded from: Cork Phoenix Rescue Currently located: In her family in Stockholm Can live with dogs: Yes Can live with cats: No Can live with children aged: 6-8 years and up Suitable environment: Can live in a quieter area Activity level: Medium Adopter's dog experience: Has dog experience previously Abby, Ace and Axel were found in Ireland by a passerby where they were lying in a cardboard box thrown into a bush. They were emaciated and full of worms, fleas, and scabies, which they were treated for. The puppies were taken to a rescue and lived in a foster home before traveling to Sweden. Abby's family says: "Abby came to us as a puppy in January 2026 and is a playful, fun, and beautiful girl. She has a lot of energy and a clear desire to run as fast as she can. She loves zoomies, playing with sticks, balls, and frisbees, and being outdoors. At home, she is often a cozy couch potato. She likes other dogs and also wants to jump up and say hello to both adults and children. Abby finds it difficult to handle life in the city with all the traffic and encounters with new dogs and people that she can't greet. We think that dog meetings work better when she walks together with a dog friend and when she has had a good time. She doesn't like nail clipping and being alone at all. Abby is being rehomed because we live in a central location. Someone with more experience and who has a fenced garden will have a better experience with Abby. She is an absolutely fantastic dog, but simply not the right one for us." Abby is 70 centimeters tall and weighs 26 kilograms. Do you feel like Abby is the missing piece in your life?

Ålder: 2025-09-01 Kön: Tik Ras: Lurcher Kastrerad: Nej Kontaktperson: Team 1. Adoptionsavgift: 10000 kr Förmedlad från: Cork Phoenix Rescue Befinner sig nu: I sin familj i Stockholm Kan bo med hundar: Ja Kan bo med katt: Nej Kan bo med barn i åldern: 6-8 år och uppåt Vilken miljö passar: Kan bo i lugnare område Aktivitetsnivå: Medium Adoptörens hundvana: Har hundvana sen tidigare Abby, Ace och Axel hittades på Irland av en förbipasserande där de låg i en kartong inkastad i en buske. De var utmärglade och fulla av mask, loppor och skabb, som de behandlades för. Valparna lämnades in till ett rescue och bodde sedan i ett jourhem innan resan till Sverige. Abbys familj berättar: ”Abby kom till oss som valp i januari 2026 och är en lekfull, rolig och vacker tjej. Hon har massor av energi och en tydlig önskan att få springa så fort hon bara kan. Hon älskar zoomies, att leka med pinnar, bollar och frisbees och att vara utomhus. Hemma är hon ofta en mysig soffpotatis. Hon tycker om andra hundar och vill också gärna hoppa upp och säga hej till både vuxna och barn. Abby svårt att hantera ett liv i staden med all trafik och möten med nya hundar och människor som hon inte får hälsa på. Vi tycker att hundmöten fungerar bättre när hon promenerar tillsammans med en hundkompis och när hon har fått busa av sig ordentligt. Kloklippning och att vara ensam tycker hon inte alls om. Abby omplaceras eftersom vi bor centralt. Någon med mer erfarenhet och som har en inhägnad trädgård kommer att ha en bättre upplevelse med Abby. Hon är en helt fantastisk hund, men helt enkelt inte rätt för oss.” Abby är 70 centimeter i mankhöjd och väger 26 kilo. Känns härliga Abby som pusselbiten som fattas i ditt liv?

About Abby

What life with Abby looks like

Abby is a medium-sized young adult lurcher dog waiting at Hundar Utan Hem in Stockholm.

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 Sweden

Swedish shelters require an adoption application and home visit. Animals are chipped, vaccinated, and sterilized. Cross-border placements within the EU use the standard pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Abby, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Abby?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Hundar Utan Hem handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Abby on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Abby if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Hundar Utan Hem 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Abby 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 Abby 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 Hundar Utan Hem early rather than rehoming privately; they know Abby 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 (SV). 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.
