Adopt Mali

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

Critical rules + Second Chance for a Wagging Soul The dear Mali wants to leave Bosnia forever This wonderful Belgian Shepherd mix – a Malinois mix – eagerly awaits his people His eyes shine today full of joy… yet behind them hides a sad past. Not long ago, the approximately 4-year-old male dog was found alone and severely injured in a forest in Bosnia He had a completely destroyed jaw, was frightened, weakened, and likely closer to death than life. Simply left out and to his fate… But he had good luck in bad times Loving people did not look away and fought together with him for survival. Followed by operations, intensive care, much patience, and a lot of love And this wonderful fighter made it Not only are his physical wounds healed – his soul has also kept its love. Despite everything that was done to him, he meets people with trust and affection He travels microchipped, neutered, and vaccinated Today he shows himself as a typical Malinois: intelligent, active, playful, eager to learn, people-oriented He loves movement, walks, playing with the ball, and shared adventures in nature With other dogs, he gets along very well and enjoys every attention from his people For him, we wish an active home with people who know the needs of this special breed and give him both physical and mental stimulation He seeks no sympathy…

About Mali

What life with Mali looks like

Mali is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Ankerhunde e.V. in Novi Grad.

An 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 Mali, answered.

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