Foppa

Australian Shepherd · Female · Young · 2 years

Your gift helps more dogs to safety and a new home. Here is Foppa, an active and lovely puppy with a big heart. He is of working breeds and at an age where much is happening both in body and mind. Foppa is a guy with great personality, even greater potential and a lot of motor. He has a lot of his own ideas about how things should go and often finds his own solutions to problems that arise during the day. As a little extra bonus, he is both treat and object-oriented and has a natural interest in exploring and engaging with his surroundings. Foppa has a great sense of discovery and an amazing drive despite his young age, so we are convinced that he will become a star at whatever he takes on. He needs both physical activity, mental stimulation, clear but soft boundaries and above all the opportunity to use his head and body in a way that suits him. The stable environment and the type of impressions and demands that come with it are tough for dogs at this age. He will therefore need time, calm and patience to land, recover and feel at home. It is important that his home can offer a safe existence where he can develop at his own pace, without unnecessary pressure. Foppa needs an engaged home that has carefully thought through the decision to take on a puppy. You should enjoy working together with the dog and see the joy in building a relationship and developing together. You need to understand what a young dog of working breed type requires, both now and in the future. We see that you have good conditions to offer him an active and contented daily life where his need for work, stimulation, recovery and closeness can take place.

Din gåva hjälper fler hundar till trygghet och ett nytt hem. Här är Foppa, en aktiv och härlig valp med stort hjärta. Han är av arbetande raser och i en ålder där mycket händer både i kropp och knopp. Foppa är en kille med stor personlighet, ännu större potential och mycket motor. Han har en hel del egna idéer om hur saker och ting ska gå till och hittar gärna egna lösningar på problem som uppstår under dagen. Som en liten extra guldkant är han både godis och föremålsintresserad samt har ett naturligt intresse för att utforska och engagera sig i sin omgivning. Foppa har stor upptäckarlust och ett fantastisk driv trots sin unga ålder så vi är övertygade om att han kommer att bli en stjärna på vad han än tar sig an. Han behöver både fysisk aktivitet, mental stimulans, tydliga men mjuka ramar och framför allt möjlighet att få använda huvudet och kroppen på ett sätt som passar honom. Stallmiljö och den typ av intryck och krav som följer med den är tuff för hundar i den här åldern. Han kommer därför att behöva tid, lugn och tålamod för att landa, återhämta sig och känna sig hemma. Det är viktigt att hans hem kan erbjuda en trygg tillvaro där han får utvecklas i sin egen takt, utan onödig press. Foppa behöver ett engagerat hem som noga har tänkt igenom beslutet att ta sig an en valp. Ni ska tycka om att arbeta tillsammans med hund och som ser glädjen i att bygga en relation och utvecklas tillsammans. Du behöver ha förståelse för vad en ung hund av arbetande rastyp kräver, både nu och framöver. Vi ser att du har goda förutsättningar att erbjuda honom en aktiv och innehållsrik vardag där hans behov av arbete, stimulans, återhämtning och närhet får ta plats.

About Foppa

What life with Foppa looks like

Foppa is a large young adult australian shepherd dog waiting at Hundstallet in Stockholm.

A 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 Sweden

Swedish shelters require an adoption application and home visit. Animals are often chipped, vaccinated, and sterilized, but confirm with the shelter. Cross-border placements within the EU use the standard pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Foppa, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Foppa?: Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Hundstallet handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Foppa on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Foppa if I live in another country?: Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask Hundstallet whether they will for Foppa, what they require (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Foppa already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: Hundstallet lists Foppa as vaccinated, microchipped and spayed. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Hundstallet, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Foppa isn't the right fit?: Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Hundstallet about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Foppa 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.
