Bobs

Male · Adult · 8 years

Age: 8 years (2017); ID - 968000010741131; Mixed breed; Country of origin - Latvia. Health status - appropriate for age. SENIOR - may receive support from the SOFI Foundation "Senior Program". Bobs came to the shelter because the owners had to move to another place where they could not take the dog with them. Bobs is a medium-sized calm senior. He has his own dignity - not everyone is ready to accept him at once, and not every action is to his liking. Bobs quietly spends his days indulging, walking and observing the surroundings from his kennel. Bobs watches the commotion around him with hope of being noticed, of finding someone who would like to give him a home and his friendship. Bob can only be reserved for adoption, is vaccinated, and will be neutered by the time of adoption. Information updated. 02.08.2024., added 22.01.2026.

Vecums: 8 gadi (2017.g.); MČ - 968000010741131; Bezšķirnes; Izcelsmes valsts - Latvija. Veselības stāvoklis - atbilstošs vecumam. SENIORS - ar iespēju saņemt SOFI fonda "Senioru programmas" atbalstu. Bobs nonāca patversmē, jo saimniekiem nācās pārcelties uz citu dzīves vietu, kur nebija iespējams suņuku vest līdzi. Bobs ir vidēji liela auguma mierīgs seniors. Tiesa ar savu pašcieņu - ne katru gatavs uzreiz atzīt, un ne katra rīcība viņam ir pa prātam. Bobs klusu vada savas dienas pamielojoties, pastaigājoties un vērojot apkārtni no sava voljēra. Bobs vēro apkārt notiekošo kņadu ar cerību, ka tiks pamanīts, ka atradīsies cilvēks, kas vēlēsies tieši viņam sniegt mājas un savu draudzību. Šobrīd Bobu, var tikai rezervēt adopcijai, ir vakcinēts, uz adopcijas brīdi būs kastrēts. Informācija atjaunota. 02.08.2024., papildināta 22.01.2026.

About Bobs

What life with Bobs looks like

Bobs is a adult dog waiting at Jēkabpils Dzīvnieku Patversme in Latvia.

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 Latvia

The shelter typically completes the animal's vaccinations, microchipping, and pet passport before adoption. Specific fees and process details vary by shelter and country — confirm directly via the contact details in the sidebar.

Frequently asked

Adopting Bobs, answered.

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