Klara

Female · Adult · 8 years

Age (Years): 8Year Of Birth: Approx 2018In Shelter Since: May 2026. Sex: Female. Breed: Mixed Breed. Colour: Tan. Size: Large. Weight (Kgs): .Good With Children? Unknown. Good With Other Dogs? .Good With Cats? UnknownEnergy Level: .Temperament: Very gentle and sweet natured.Experienced Owners Only: No, but she will need a patient home. Vaccinated: Yes Klara's future looked heartbreakingly uncertain as she was living alone on the streets, surviving by keeping her distance from people. We had tried to help her before, but she was simply too frightened to come close. Then one day she disappeared. When we finally found her, she was in a kill shelter, exhausted, frightened and running out of time. Thankfully, that wasn't the end of her story. For the first time, Klara allowed us to get close. She is now safe with us and on her way to the life she has always deserved. Although she is still a little unsure of everything around her, she has shown herself to be an incredibly gentle, calm and sweet-natured girl who responds with quiet gratitude to every act of kindness. Once fully recovered, this gentle old lady will be ready to start looking for the loving family she has waited so long to find.

About Klara

What life with Klara looks like

Klara is a large adult dog waiting at Hope VMS / Elaines Dogs in Bosnia.

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 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 Klara, answered.

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