Marta (Марта)

Female

Martha is an energetic and emotional young dog who bubbles with curiosity, but pulls strongly on the leash and rushes when meeting other dogs. She is very smart and needs mental stimulation (food searching/games with a ball/rope) more than just physical exhaustion. We are looking for experienced owners who can channel her hunting instincts and provide a calm and safe home. Martha is friendly, loves people, and can live in both urban environments and a house with a yard. Visit Margaret during weekdays from 8:00 to 16:30, and on Saturdays between 10:00 and 14:00 you can walk her at the shelter Seslavtsi. Martha is part of the 1500s Project and Dogs Trust to create 100 dog profiles by a certified trainer. Martha's profile was created by Ralitsa Milanova - a certified trainer with many years of experience in rehabilitation and trauma-informed approach when working with dogs, supported by Dogs Trust and assistance from the Capital Municipality.

BG·Show original

Марта е енергично и емоционално младо куче, което кипи от любопитство, но дърпа силно на повод и бърза при среща с други кучета. Тя е много умна и има нужда от мисловна стимулация (търсене на храна/игри с топка/въже) повече, отколкото от чисто физическо изморяване. Търсим опитни стопани, които да насочат ловните ѝ инстинкти и да ѝ осигурят спокоен и защитен дом. Марта е добродушна, обича хората и може да живее както в градска среда, така и в къща с двор. Посетете Маргарет през делничните дни от 8:00 до 16:30, а в събота между 10:00 и 14:00 може да я разходите в приют Сеславци. Марта е включена в проекта Бандата на 1500-те и Dogs Trust за изготвяне на 100 профила на кучета от сертифициран треньор. Профилът на Марта е съставен от Ралица Миланова – сертифициран треньор с дългогодишен опит в рехабилитацията и травма-информирания подход при работа с кучета, с подкрепата на Dogs Trust и съдействието на Столична община.

About Marta (Марта)

What life with Marta (Марта) looks like

Marta (Марта) is a large adult dog waiting at Ecoravnovesie Sofia in Sofia.

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 Bulgaria

Bulgarian shelters typically include full vet workup, sterilization, and passport. Many coordinate with EU rescue partners for direct transport to adopter cities in Germany, Netherlands, and Austria.

Frequently asked

Adopting Marta (Марта), answered.

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