Adopt Disha

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 8 years

Beautiful Disha is not originally a Hundhjälpen-dog, but when the situation at home became difficult and protection networks were lacking, we contacted them. She came to Sweden from Romania as a foster in 2018 and then went to a family that did not fully understand that fosters are lively and energetic. Six months old, she was taken in by a couple in Stockholm where she has lived ever since. Now, however, a little child has come into the home and Disha becomes extremely stressed by this and the lack of “proper time” she is used to. Disha is an active and clever girl who is used to long, exciting walks and runs in the woods. She is a loyal and very trusting girl who can be alone at home for a few hours—and explodes with joy when home and mate come back. Being in the center of the home has been her joy and fun. Disha is also used to going by car and has been on several vacations when the owners have gone away. We are now looking for a more tranquil home where time is spent on home activities and forest adventures. This is an awake and intelligent girl with many strings to her bow and a large potential for love. She has previously had several dog companions, but now that there is no time for walks, she becomes stressed by many unfamiliar dogs. Living as a single dog is completely fine for her, provided you have a lot of time to devote to her. If there is a dog in the home, it should be a large and calm hound that can give her a sense of security in the new environment. We are now looking for our finest Disha an eternal home with the world's kindest people. The home should be in a quiet location, and Disha would thrive in a more rural environment. As a new mate / partner, you should be able to enjoy the outdoors with your dog. If there are children at home, they should be in their teens. You must be prepared to give Disha time to "land" with you, but then you can count on the world's best companion in her.

Vackra Disha är från början inte en Hundhjälpen-hund men då situationen i hemmet blev svår och skyddsnät saknades kontaktades vi. Hon kom till Sverige från Rumänien som valp 2018 och då till en familj som inte alls förstod att valpar är livliga och busiga. 6 månader gammal övertogs hon av ett par i Stockholm där hon bott sedan dess. Nu har det dock tillkommit ett litet barn i hemmet och Disha blir enormt stressad av detta och den brist på ”egentid” hon är van med. Disha är en aktiv och pigg tjej som är van med långa, spännande promenader och springturer i skogen. Hon är en lojal och mycket tillgiven tjej som kan vara ensam hemma några timmar – och exploderar av glädje när husse och matte kommer hem igen. Att få vara i centrum hemmavid har varit hennes glädje och nöje. Disha är även van att åka bil och har varit flera gånger på pensionat när ägarna rest. Vi söker dock för henne nu en lugnare tillvaro där tiden ägnas till hemmapyssel och skogsäventyr. Det här är en vaken och intelligent tjej med många strängar på sin lyra och kärlekspotential i stora mått. Hon har tidigare haft flera hundkamrater men nu när tiden inte finns till umgänge så blir hon stressad av många främmande hundar. Att bo som ensam hund är helt ok för henne under förutsättning att man har mycket tid att ägna henne. Finns hund i hemmet bör det vara en stor och lugn hane som kan skänka henne trygghet i det nya. Smådjur undviker vi då Disha är lite väl intresserad av sådana. Till vår finaste Disha söker vi nu evighetshemmet med världens snällaste människor. Hemmet ska vara lugnt beläget och Disha skulle stortrivas i lite lantligare miljö. Som ny matte / husse bör du själv trivas ute i naturen med din hund. Finns barn hemma bör de vara i tonåren. Du måste vara beredd att ge Disha tid att ”landa” hos dig men sedan kan du räkna med världens bästa kompis i henne.

About Disha

What life with Disha looks like

Disha is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hundhjälpen in Stockholm.

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 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 Disha, answered.

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