Kid

Female · Adult · 6 years

Kid is a polar bear mix with a lot of strength, energy and a big portion of puppy in him. He is curious, forward and full of life – a dog who really wants to be part of the action and explore the world, and sometimes also the boundaries. Kid has a wonderful joy of living and a drive that is really noticeable, especially when he gets to be outside and move around. At the same time, he is still a bit of a pup in his manner, just in a larger and stronger body, which makes him both charming and demanding at the same time. When he calms down and feels satisfied, he is a harmonious and pleasant dog to have around, but the path there goes through an active and fulfilling daily routine where he really gets to release his energy. The dog has undergone a BPH test (Behavior and Personality Description) to give a clearer picture of its personality and characteristics. Kid is a very active and strong young dog who needs a daily routine with both physical and mental stimulation to be happy. He thrives when he gets to move a lot, go on longer activities and work on tasks that engage his mind, such as obedience or nose work. When his needs are not met, he can become frustrated and have difficulty controlling his emotions, which may show up as being stubborn or starting to bite arms. This is a dog who is still testing and exploring boundaries, which is completely natural for his age and type. He therefore needs a secure, calm and consistent owner who can read him correctly, stay one step ahead and guide him without conflict; so that he gets the right conditions to settle down and develop in the right direction. Kid is looking for a very active home with someone who really wants to live an active life together with their dog. This is not a dog for a sedentary lifestyle; he needs an owner who has time, energy and interest to give him both physical and mental stimulation every day. Experience with strong, active dogs is a big plus, as he requires someone who can be consistent and clear in daily life. A home where he can be a single dog suits him best, because he can sometimes become too intense in interactions with other dogs, even though he enjoys meeting dog friends for play and walks under the right conditions. For the right person, Kid is a fantastic companion; strong, loyal and fun, who becomes a really nice and stable dog with the right lifestyle and stimulation. Answer the questions below to get an indication of how your daily routine and plans match a dog's needs. It helps both you and us to find the right match and give the dog a safe home. You need to take the test before you can submit your application.

Kid är en kille med mycket energi, nyfikenhet och en stor portion unghund kvar i sig. Han är framåt, social och vill gärna vara med där det händer. Det märks tydligt att han tycker om livet och allt världen har att erbjuda, särskilt när han får vara ute och röra på sig. Kid är dessutom en riktig clown som ofta bjuder på sina egna idéer och små upptåg, något som gör att man har svårt att inte le åt honom. Han älskar att utforska nya miljöer, gärna lite off road där han får hitta egna vägar och använda både kropp och nos. Att gräva är också en av hans stora favoritsysslor. Samtidigt är han fortfarande ung i sitt sätt och kan ibland vilja testa gränserna, särskilt när känslorna springer iväg före eftertanken. När Kid får rätt balans mellan aktivitet, tydlighet och vila är han däremot en väldigt trevlig och harmonisk hund att ha omkring sig. Hunden har genomgått ett BPH-test (Beteende- och personlighetsbeskrivning) för att ge en tydligare bild av dess personlighet och egenskaper. Kid är en aktiv och stark unghund som söker ett hem där han får vara en naturlig del av vardagen och hänga med på livets äventyr. Han älskar långa promenader, springturer och att få använda både kropp och huvud tillsammans med sin människa. Kid är fortfarande ung och har mycket energi, vilket ibland gör att känslorna tar över lite när han blir understimulerad. Då kan han bli påstridig i sitt sätt, men med rätt vägledning och en trygg person vid sin sida har han väldigt fina förutsättningar att utvecklas till en stabil och härlig följeslagare. Kid behöver en hundvan ägare som kan ge honom tydlighet, tålamod och ett aktivt liv där han får möjlighet att landa och mogna i sin egen takt.

About Kid

What life with Kid looks like

Kid is a large adult dog waiting at Hundstallet in Stockholm.

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 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 Kid, answered.

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