Hera

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

This is Hera. Or maybe Lady. Or perhaps Bolha. The truth is, she does not really care what name people use for her. What matters to her is something much simpler: being loved — as much as possible, as often as possible. Hera is an incredibly affectionate, people-oriented, loyal and playful female dog. According to her microchip information, she was born around February 2023. She is quite literally the shadow of every caregiver at the shelter. No matter what is happening, Hera wants to be involved in everything, always staying close to her humans. For her, nothing matters more than human attention, gentle touches and kind words. We truly cannot understand why she is still waiting in the shelter, because she deserves so much more. Standing around 58 cm tall at the shoulder with her beautiful long coat, Hera is considered a large dog, yet she is unbelievably gentle when showing affection to people. She has been waiting far too long to finally become the center of someone’s world. Ideally,

About Hera

What life with Hera looks like

Hera is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at SOS Dogs FPCC Oradea in Oradea.

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 Romania

Romanian rescues handle the highest volume of cross-border adoptions in the EU. Animals are quarantined and fully vetted before transport. Reputable rescues maintain detailed health records and post-adoption follow-up.

Frequently asked

Adopting Hera, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Hera?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. SOS Dogs FPCC Oradea handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Hera on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Hera if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — SOS Dogs FPCC Oradea 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Hera 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 Hera 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 SOS Dogs FPCC Oradea early rather than rehoming privately; they know Hera 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.
