Alastor

Male · Adult · 6 years

Alastor was originally a nickname for the god Zeus as the guardian of moral order and avenger of evil deeds. Then there's Alastor Moody from Harry Potter - eccentric, somewhat peculiar, and definitely unmistakable. And our Alastor? He's a bit of everything. A sweet, friendly, adorable black dachshund mix with a smart gaze is looking for someone who can appreciate his sweet nature but won't be swayed by his ideas and will be able to set boundaries kindly but firmly. Despite his short legs and cheerful grin, he has significant reserves in dog training. It's clear he hasn't needed a human for anything other than to take care of a full bowl yet. But Alastor is smart. And that's where we see his great potential. If he finds someone who is willing to show him that life with a human can mean much more than just regular food, he could quickly understand that cooperation has many interesting benefits. He needs someone to teach him, show him the world, set clear and understandable rules and at the same time give him the opportunity to find out how wonderful it can be to do something together. He's young, smart, and curious. And so he has many possibilities ahead of him to go from a little troublemaker to a great dog partner. And Alastor is really only small in stature. He's lively, spirited. He needs plenty of exercise and employment for his clever head. He will most appreciate an active home where he won't just lie around on the couch but where someone will walk, explore, learn and work with him. Alastor is looking for someone who won't be afraid that his training will be a bit of a joint project. He can repay it. Maybe you'll find a bit of Zeus, a bit of Moody in him... and most importantly one wonderful Alastor who is just waiting for someone to show him what they can do together. Alastor is an estimated six-year-old dog, vaccinated, chipped, treated against external and internal parasites. A condition for adoption is his castration after acclimatization in the new home. In case of interest in adopting the active Alastor, we ask you to send an email to . Write basic information about yourself, your family, other animals, background and experience with dogs. Just a kind of animal CV, so we have an idea of what kind of life you offer him. We would be very grateful for photos of your animal family members. We will answer you by email and arrange a first meeting. Thanks to Radek Havlíček ♥ vividfoto.cz ♥ for the photos.

Alastor byl původně přízviskem boha Dia v roli ochránce morálního pořádku a mstitele zlých činů. Pak tu máme ještě Alastora Moodyho z Harryho Pottera – excentrického, poněkud svérázného a rozhodně nezaměnitelného pošuka. A ten náš Alastor? Ten je od každého trochu. Milý, přátelský, roztomilý černý kříženec jezevčíka s chytrým pohledem hledá člověka, který dokáže ocenit jeho milou povahu, ale zároveň se nenechá zviklat jeho nápady a bude umět laskavě, ale důrazně nastavit hranice. Přestože má krátké nohy a veselý kukuč, v oblasti psího vychování má zatím značné rezervy. Je zkrátka vidět, že člověka dosud nepotřeboval k ničemu jinému než k tomu, aby se postaral o plnou misku. Jenže Alastor je chytrý. A právě v tom vidíme jeho velký potenciál. Kdyby našel člověka, který bude mít chuť mu ukázat, že život s člověkem může znamenat mnohem víc než jen pravidelný přísun jídla, mohl by velmi rychle pochopit, že spolupráce má spoustu zajímavých výhod. Potřebuje někoho, kdo ho něco naučí, ukáže mu svět, nastaví jasná a srozumitelná pravidla a zároveň mu dá možnost zjistit, jak báječné může být něco dělat společně. Je mladý, chytrý a zvídavý. A tak má před sebou ještě spoustu možností, jak se z malého rošťáka stát skvělý psí parťák. A malý je Alastor opravdu jen vzrůstem. Je živý, temperamentní. Potřebuje dostatek pohybu i zaměstnání pro svou chytrou hlavu. Nejvíc ocení aktivní domov, kde se nebude jen povalovat na gauči, ale kde s ním někdo bude chodit, objevovat, učit se a pracovat. Alastor tedy hledá člověka, který se nezalekne toho, že jeho výchova bude tak trochu společný projekt. Odvděčit se za ni totiž umí. Možná v něm nakonec najdete trochu Dia, trochu Moodyho… a hlavně jednoho báječného Alastora, který teprve čeká, až mu někdo ukáže, co všechno spolu dokážou. Alastor je odhadem šestiletý psík, očkovaný, čipovaný, ošetřený proti vnějším i vnitřním parazitům. Podmínkou adopce je jeho kastrace po aklimatizaci v novém domově. V případě zájmu o adopci akčňáka Alastora Vás poprosíme o zaslání e-mailu na . Do e-mailu napište základní informace o sobě, své rodině, dalších zvířatech, zázemí a zkušenostech se psy. Prostě takový zvířecí životopis, ať máme představu o tom, jaký život mu nabízíte. Za fotografie Vašich zvířecích členů rodiny budeme moc rády. Na e-mail Vám odpovíme a domluvíme si první seznamovací návštěvu. Za focení patří naše poděkování Radku Havlíčkovi ♥ vividfoto.cz ♥ Povaha: akční, milý, usměvavý

About Alastor

What life with Alastor looks like

Alastor is a small adult dog waiting at Útulek Tábor in Czech Republic.

An 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 Czech Republic

Czech shelters (útulky) include sterilization, vaccinations, and microchip ID. The adopter signs a written contract (smlouva) — the shelter may follow up to verify wellbeing.

Frequently asked

Adopting Alastor, answered.

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