Adopt Caspar

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 11 years

Both Caspar and the brother have grown into older gentlemen, and the brother has a hard time coping with the responsibility now that he doesn't feel so young. The brother met Caspar already as a foster in the shelter SaveTheDogs when it was in the city Medgidia – and decided to adopt the little foster. Years have passed and Caspar and the brother have had it good together. Now in the autumn of their lives, the brother wishes that Caspar can have a peaceful environment and preferably one with its own yard where he can stroll around at his own pace. Caspar loves to be out in nature and explore, so small forest walks are important. He is a friendly and loving soul who clings to his people, but young children have a hard time with him – he is not used to them and they stress him out. The doggy friends should be nice and not too big – overly large dogs and the ones who are pushy are not favorites. For our little Caspar, we are now looking for a fantastic home where he is welcome to be fully part of the community. A place in the sofa and bed is desired, and plenty of good food. You can work together in the garden in the summer and snuggle up inside the warmth in the winter. Taking in a senior dog is a special feeling – they are all very wise and wonderful personalities that they have developed over their lifetime. We believe that Caspar would fit perfectly with someone who is retired but still active – and who can cheer him up a lot. If there is a dog in the home, it should be calm and in a smaller size. Dog-friendly cats okay. BackgroundOn a beautiful June day, a woman in the city Medgidia discovered two little fosters in the trash can where she was just throwing her trash away. The fosters were crawling around in the trash and were extremely dirty – they growled loudly and were very scared and frightened. How they ended up in the trash can we can only guess – they were at about two months old, definitely too small to have gotten there on their own. Perhaps someone got rid of unwanted fosters in this way – perhaps someone out of sheer cruelty found them and "threw them out." No tags were found around the trash can.

Både Caspar och husse har hunnit bli äldre herrar och husse har svårt att orka med ansvaret nu när han inte känner sig så kry. Husse träffade Caspar redan som valp i det hägn SaveTheDogs då drev i staden Medgidia – och beslöt sig för att adoptera den lilla parveln. Åren har gått och Caspar och husse har haft det bra tillsammans. Nu på ålderns höst önskar husse att Caspar ska få bo en lugn miljö och helst då med egen täppa där han kan strosa runt i egen takt. Caspar älskar att vara ute i naturen och utforska, så små skogspromenader är viktiga. Han är en vänlig och kärleksfull själ som tyr sig till sina människor men unga barn har han svårt för – han är inte van och då stressar de honom. Hundkamraterna ska vara snälla och inte så stora – alltför stora hundar och de som är påträngande är inga favoriter. Till vår lille Caspar söker vi nu ett fantastiskt hem där han är välkommen att vara med i gemenskapen fullt ut. Plats i soffa och säng önskas och god mat i mängd. Ni kan jobba tillsammans i trädgården på sommaren och mysa inne i värmen på vintern. Att ta emot en senior-hund är en speciell känsla – de är alla väldigt kloka och fantastiska personligheter som de utvecklat under sin livstid. Vi tror att Caspar skulle trivas perfekt hos någon som är pensionär men fortfarande aktiv – och som skämmer bort honom väldigt. Finns hund i hemmet ska den vara lugn och i mindre format. Hundvan katt ok. BakgrundEn vacker junidag upptäckte en kvinna i staden Medgidia två små valpar i sopcontainern där hon just skulle slänga sina soppåsar. Valparna kravlade runt i skräpet och var oerhört smutsiga – de gnydde högljutt och var väldigt skärrade och rädda. Hur de hamnat i containern kan vi bara gissa – de var vid ca två månaders ålder definitivt för små för att ha kunnat ta sig dit själv. Kanske någon gjort sig av med oönskade valpar på detta sätt – kanske någon av ren elakhet hittat dem och ”kastat bort” dem. Ingen tik fanns kring containern. Kvinnan hämtade sin man som klättrade ner i cont

About Caspar

What life with Caspar looks like

Caspar is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Hundhjälpen in Stockholm.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇸🇪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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Caspar, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Caspar?
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 Caspar on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Caspar 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 Caspar 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 Caspar 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 Caspar 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.
