Mara

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

When Negrut was first found on the streets, he was in a heartbreaking state. His fur was in terrible condition, his nails painfully overgrown, and his body was covered in scars — the kind that tell a story no dog should ever have to live through. Since being taken in to the shelter, he has shown what a lovely soul he is. Now, this handsome 22kg, 3 year old boy is ready for the next chapter: a home of his own. Negrut is friendly, affectionate, and full of life. After everything he’s been through, he just wants to be loved. He walks beautifully on the lead and would be happiest in an active home that enjoys walks, adventures, and plenty of cuddle time after. A garden to lounge in the sun would make his tail wag even more! He could live happily with a playful female dog, or be just as content as the only dog soaking up all the attention. He hasn’t been tested with cats or children. Because he never had a real puppyhood, Negrut can still get a little overexcited at times — but he’s eager to learn and full of love.

About Mara

What life with Mara looks like

Mara is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at O.U.R. Dog Foundation.

An 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 Mara, answered.

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