How do I contact the shelter about Alex?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Ürömi Állatotthon handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Alex on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Alex if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Ürömi Állatotthon 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 Alex 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 Alex 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 Ürömi Állatotthon early rather than rehoming privately; they know Alex 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 (HU). 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.

Adopt Alex

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 3 years

Alex is a 3-year-old boy dog who struggles to endure the days spent in the kennel. Some dogs learn to accept life behind the bars… and some simply yearn for more. Alex is one of them. We don't know his past. We don't know how he came to be here, but one thing we do know: Alex is a gentle dog. Not because he was born that way. But because he was probably never shown what it feels like to be safe, to love, or simply to be a dog by a human. Be cautious, still, in this world. But there is something in his eyes: the desire to finally experience true happiness. Alex is an active dog, so we are looking for an active home for him. We are looking for someone who loves to travel, to move, to gather shared experiences. But more importantly, we are looking for a home that won't be daunted by the fact that at the beginning, they will have to teach him how to live. Because Alex has so much to learn. He needs to learn that grooming isn't a bad thing. That being petted is pleasurable. That closeness means safety. That home isn't just a place… but a feeling. We are looking for a patient, tolerant home for him, one that won't give up on the challenge. But one thing we are certain of: Alex will adapt. And from the uncertain dog he is today, he will become a loyal, infinitely brave family member. More photos of Alex: if you feel you are the one who can show Alex what a happy dog's life feels like. Alex will be spayed, microchipped, and neutered before going to his new home. You can apply by phone or email.

Alex egy 3 éves fiúcska, aki nehezen viseli a kennelben töltött napokat. Vannak kutyák, akik megtanulják elfogadni a rácsok mögötti életet… és vannak, akiknek a lelkük egyszerűen többre vágyik. Alex ilyen.Nem ismerjük a múltját. Nem tudjuk, min ment keresztül, de egy dolgot biztosan tudunk: Alex félős kutya. És nem azért, mert ilyennek született. Hanem mert valószínűleg sosem mutatták meg neki, milyen érzés biztonságban lenni. Milyen érzés szeretve lenni. Milyen érzés ember mellett egyszerűen csak kutyának lenni.Óvatosan figyel, bizonytalan még ebben a világban. De a szemében ott van valami: a vágy, hogy egyszer végre ő is megtapasztalja a boldog életet.Alex nagy mozgásigényű kutya, ezért aktív családot keresünk számára. Olyan embereket, akik szeretnek kirándulni, mozogni, közös élményeket gyűjteni. De ennél is fontosabb, hogy olyan családot keresünk neki, akik nem ijednek meg attól, hogy az elején még tanítani kell neki az életet.Mert Alexnek még rengeteg mindent meg kell ismernie. Meg kell tanulnia, hogy a póráz nem rossz dolog. Hogy a simogatás öröm. Hogy a közelség biztonságot jelent. Hogy az otthon szó nem csak egy hely… hanem érzés.Egy szorgalmas, türelmes családot keresünk neki, akik nem hátrálnak meg a feladattól.Egy dologban viszont teljesen biztosak vagyunk: Alex meghálálja majd. És abból a félős kutyából, aki ma még bizonytalan, egyszer egy végtelenül hűséges családtag válik. További fotók Alexről: ha úgy érzed, te lennél az, aki megmutatja Alexnek, milyen a boldog kutyaélet íze.Alex is oltásokkal, chipel, ivartalanítva megy új családjába.Jelentkezni a telefonszámon vagy az email címen lehet.

About Alex

What life with Alex looks like

Alex is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Ürömi Állatotthon in Hungary.

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 Hungary

Hungarian shelters operate at high capacity given the country's stray population. Animals leave sterilized, chipped, and with a passport. Many shelters coordinate transport to Germany, Austria, and the Nordics.
