How do I contact the shelter about Amelia?

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

Can I adopt Amelia if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Hundhjälpen 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 Amelia 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 Amelia 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 Hundhjälpen early rather than rehoming privately; they know Amelia 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.

Amelia

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy

Little Amelia is a rare and very gentle puppy girl. She had a rough start in life and, during her first days at the clinic, she didn't dare leave her room. The staff is used to rescuing dogs and gave her plenty of time—and gradually, Amelia began exploring her corridor and even ventured into the office, sniffing around the people there. The street dogs she’d been found with had frightened her badly, so at first, when the kennel dogs barked, it was quite unsettling for her. However, Amelia is overcoming her fears and now thoroughly enjoys taking walks around the kennel with the staff and investigating all the exciting smells. When she feels unsure, she seeks comfort from her human companion. She has blossomed into a cuddly little girl who loves cozy moments and happily lies together in the grass for a quiet chat and a bit of scratching. Amelia needed a good mentor, and they found one in Yari. His previous ward, Karina, had moved to Sweden, and now he was ready for his next assignment. Yari provides incredible reassurance for our fearful dogs, and he immediately took on Amelia’s care. She watched him closely, and when she saw how kind he was, she started imitating him and following right behind him. They’re incredibly sweet with each other, and it warms your heart to see their trusting relationship. Amelia has also met some of the kennel’s cats and curiously studied them from a distance. For our lovely Amelia, we’re now looking for a forever home where she’ll be welcomed with open arms. The home should be quietly situated, and its residents should lead a calm lifestyle. If there are children, they should be older. Amelia would appreciate a calm and gentle canine companion who could take over Yari’s role as best friend and source of security—definitely no boisterous dogs, as those had frightened her in the past. You must understand that she’ll need extra time and patience to settle into her new home—and that you’ll always support her whenever she feels uncertain—in new environments and among new people. In the right home, Amelia will become the most wonderful companion you could ever have. Background: Thankfully, there are private individuals who care deeply.

Lilla Amelia är en rar och mycket mjuk valp-tjej. Hon for illa tidigt i livet och vågade den första tiden vid kliniken inte lämna sitt rum. Personalen är vana vid rädda hundar och gav henne tid – och så småningom började Amelia utforska sin korridor och t o m traska in på kontoret och snusa på människorna där. Hundarna på gatan där hon hittades hade skrämt henne ordentligt så när hägnets hundar skällde var det först obehagligt. Amelia tacklar dock sina problem och njuter nu till fullo av att promenera med personalen kring hägnet och undersöka alla spännande dofter. Känner hon sig osäker tar hon stöd av sin människa. Hon har utvecklats till en gosig liten tjej som älskar mys-stunder och ligger gärna tillsammans i gräset för en lugn diskussion och lite kliande.. Amelia behövde en bra mentor och den hittade man i Yari. Hans tidigare skyddsling Karina hade rest till Sverige och nu var han redo för nästa uppdrag. Yari är en fantastisk trygghet för våra rädda hundar och han tog sig genast an Amelia. Hon tittade uppmärksamt på honom och då hon såg hur snäll han var började hon imitera honom och följa efter. De är oerhört rara mot varandra och man blir glad i hjärtat att se deras tillitsfulla relation. Amelia har även träffat några av hägnets katter och nyfiket studerat dem lite på avstånd. För vår ljuva Amelia söker vi nu evighetshemmet där hon välkomnas med öppna armar. Hemmet ska vara lugnt beläget och man bör föra en lugn livsstil hemmavid. Finns barn ska de vara äldre. Amelia skulle uppskatta en lugn och snäll hundkamrat som kan ta över Yaris roll som bästis och trygghet – absolut ingen burdus hund då sådana har skrämt henne tidigare. Du måste ha förståelse för att hon behöver lite extra tid och tålamod för att finna sig till rätta i sitt nya hem – och att du alltid ska stötta henne där hon kan känna sig osäker – i nya miljöer och bland nya människor. I rätt hem kommer Amelia att bli den finaste kamrat man kan ha. BakgrundTack och lov finns det privatpersoner som oroar

About Amelia

What life with Amelia looks like

Amelia is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Hundhjälpen in Stockholm.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇸🇪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.
