Adopt Bodi

Male · Young · 3 years

Bodi is looking for a new home. He is just over 2 years of age and currently lives in Leicestershire but can be rehomed in a different part of the country. Bodi was rescued from Macedonia as a puppy by another Rescue and at 6 months old was adopted by a family. Bodi is a large active strong boy who weighs approximately 27 kg and is the size of a Labrador but with longer legs. He is a nervous boy and because of this he can be reactive to other dogs on walks but is better on a longer lead where he is it less restricted. He is also nervous with visitors to the house he does not know sometimes leading him to snap. He is being rehomed because he has proved to be too strong for the family who adopted him. They also have 2 cats and he has proved to be not cat friendly. We are looking for an adopter who is physically fit and has previous experience of working with a large reactive dog. He should not be rehomed with cats or children but may benefit from living with a confident resident dog. A semi rural location would be preferable. We are sure that with the right adopter who has the knowledge and experience he could become a better version of himself. To adopt this big, beautiful dog please contact us.

About Bodi

What life with Bodi looks like

Bodi is a large young adult dog waiting at Strays Without Borders in Skopje.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇲🇰Adopting from North Macedonia

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 Bodi, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Bodi?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Strays Without Borders handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Bodi on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Bodi if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Strays Without Borders 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 Bodi 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 Bodi 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 Strays Without Borders early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bodi 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 (EN). 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.
