Katrina

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

Breed: Mix. Gender: Female. Date of birth: September 2024. Height: 43 cm. Weight: 14 kgIn a shelter from: November 2024 Family in the shelter: no Family! Katrina came to us as a young puppy carrying a burden no dog should ever have to bear—a deep fear of people, most likely caused by painful experiences in her early life. She kept her distance, unsure if humans could ever be trusted again. Healing a broken heart takes time, patience, and unconditional love. Day by day, our team spent time with Katrina, offering kindness, positive energy, and friendship without expecting anything in return. Slowly, she began to understand that not all people would hurt her. One day, the wall she had built around herself finally came down. The frightened little puppy transformed into a beautiful, playful, and affectionate dog who now loves to be around people she trusts. Seeing her wagging tail and joyful spirit reminds us why we never give up on dogs like Katrina. Today, Katrina is ready for the next chapter of her life. She is waiting for a family who will continue giving her the love, security, and happiness she has learned to believe in. In return, she will fill their lives with loyalty, gratitude, and endless affection.

About Katrina

What life with Katrina looks like

Katrina is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Animal Rescue Bosnia in Bosnia.

An young 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 Bosnia and Herzegovina

The shelter typically completes the animal's vaccinations, microchipping, and pet passport before adoption. Specific fees and process details vary by shelter and country — confirm directly via the contact details in the sidebar.

Frequently asked

Adopting Katrina, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Katrina?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Animal Rescue Bosnia handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Katrina on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Katrina if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Animal Rescue Bosnia 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 Katrina 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 Katrina 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 Animal Rescue Bosnia early rather than rehoming privately; they know Katrina 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. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
