Adopt Monty

Mixed Breed · Male

This is Monty. T ogether with his sister Lisa he was dropped off at the sanctuary while they were still tiny pups. They had been found at the side of the road dumped in Borovan. They are now almost a year old and are really gentle and lovely natured dogs. Monty will sit down for his food and is a clever food motivated dog so we think he'd love an active home where he could go outside on adventures and learn new things. Despite him being an active dog, he easily calms down and comes over to snuggle with you on his stretcher and loves a good cuddle. He'll literally melt in your arms when you give him a good hug. Here at the sanctuary he lives together with Lisa and Prince and each morning our dear Sheba joins them in the field to play. Monty is neutered and fully vaccinated and could travel as soon as he finds his special forever home. We'd love for him to go together with Lisa but we know it’s a huge ask and if we need to separate them we will. They really deserve a loving home environment. Please let us know if you're interested in adopting Monty!

About Monty

What life with Monty looks like

Monty is a very small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Helen in Vratsa region.

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 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 Monty, answered.

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