Hektor

Mixed Breed · Male

Gender: male Estimated birth date: 2017 Size: medium Hektor spent his entire life in a dark cellar, with skin disease, unvaccinated. Since then, he has nicely recovered, but unfortunately, the poor one is allergic to many things, eats special food. A big, loving ball of affection, walks nicely on a leash, loves people, is clean in the kennel. Does not like cats, is picky with dogs.

Nem: kan Becsült születési ideje: 2017 Méret: közepes termetű Hektor eddigi életét egy sötét pincében élte le, bőrbetegen, oltatlanul. Azóta egész szépen meggyógyult, de sajnos szegény sokmindenre allergiás, speciális tápot eszik. Egy nagy hengertestű szeretetgombóc, szépen sétál pórázon, imádja az embereket, kenneltiszta is. Cicákat nem szereti, kutyákkal válogat.

About Hektor

What life with Hektor looks like

Hektor is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Jeromos Egyesület (Baja) in Hungary.

An 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 Hungary

Hungarian shelters operate at high capacity given the country's stray population. Animals leave sterilized, chipped, and with a passport. Many shelters coordinate transport to Germany, Austria, and the Nordics.

Frequently asked

Adopting Hektor, answered.

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