Nancy

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Nancy arrived in Sweden in July 2025. Since then, her human unfortunately became ill and is struggling to manage daily life with the house and dogs. He will soon have to move into an apartment, where Nancy won't feel comfortable, and her human won't be able to cope with spending time outdoors with her—her greatest joy. Taken together, this means Nancy now urgently needs to find a new home. Currently, Nancy lives in the countryside and loves her fenced-in garden, where she can peacefully ponder life. At home, there’s an older male dog whom Nancy finds perfectly fine. She doesn’t always need his company and sometimes enjoys keeping busy doing her own things. We believe she’d thrive alongside a kind and cheerful canine companion, though she could also do well as a single dog in the right home. She hasn’t yet been introduced to cats, but with gradual acclimation, this should work out fine. We’re now looking for a safe and loving home for our beautiful Nancy—a home with a slightly calmer lifestyle and a quiet location—not in a densely populated urban area. If there are children in the home, they must be somewhat older. Right now, Nancy takes great responsibility for her sick human, which is very stressful for her. She deserves a fresh start in life, where she can enjoy wonderful nature experiences, play happily with her balls, and shower her people with love. Nancy is an amazing girl and will become someone’s very best friend! Background: The Danube River flows straight through the small town of Cernavoda in Romania, where SaveTheDogs operates. Along the river, there are many incredibly beautiful areas. Upstream, far from the town, lived a fisherman with his family. They cared for several dogs as companions and protectors. One of the female dogs, Dana, gave birth shortly after Christmas 2022 to five adorable little puppies—Nancy, Mulder, Melvin, Shannon, and Walter. The fisherman couldn’t take care of all of them, so he contacted SaveTheDogs, who picked up the little family. Mother Dana was later spayed and returned to her free life with the fisherman, where she was warmly welcomed back by her pack. The five puppies who grew up...

Nancy anlände till Sverige i juli 2025. Sedan dess har husse tyvärr insjuknat och har svårt att klara vardagen med hus och hundar. Han kommer att måsta flytta till lägenhet snart och där kommer inte Nancy att trivas och husse kommer inte att klara av att vistas ute med henne som är det bästa hon vet. Detta sammantaget gör att Nancy nu snabbt behöver hitta nytt boende. Nancy bor i dagsläget ute på landet och älskar sin inhägnade trädgård där hon lugnt kan filosofera. I hemmet finns en äldre hane som Nancy tycker är helt ok. Hon är inte beroende av hans sällskap i alla lägen utan pysslar på med egna saker emellanåt. Vi tror att hon kommer att trivas tillsammans med en snäll och glad hundkamrat men kan ev även i rätt hem bo som ensam hund. Hon har inte presenterats för katter men med gradvis tillvänjning bör detta kunna fungera. Vi söker nu för vår vackra Nancys räkning ett tryggt och kärleksfullt hem där man för ett lite lugnare leverne och där hemmet är lugnt beläget – inget tätortsboende. Finns barn i hemmet måste de vara lite äldre. Nancy tar i dagsläget ett stort ansvar för sin sjuka husse vilket är betungande för henne. Hon måste få nystarta sitt liv där hon får njuta av härliga naturupplevelser, busa med sina bollar och ösa kärlek över sina människor. Nancy är en fantastisk tjej och kommer att bli någons allra bästa vän! Bakgrund Floden Donau rinner rakt igenom den lilla staden Cernavoda i Rumänien, där SaveTheDogs arbetar. Längs floden finns många oerhört vackra områden. Uppåt floden, långt från staden bodde en fiskare med sin familj. De tog hand om ett antal hundar som sällskap och skydd. En av tikarna, Dana, fick strax efter jul 2022 fem rara, små valpar – Nancy, Mulder, Melvin, Shannon och Walter. Fiskaren kunden inte ta hand om samtliga så han kontaktade SaveTheDogs som hämtade den lilla familjen. Mamma Dana fick senare efter att ha kastrerats återvända till sitt fria liv hos fiskaren där hon välkomnades varmt av sin flock. De fem valparna som har vuxit upp

About Nancy

What life with Nancy looks like

Nancy is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hundhjälpen in Stockholm.

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 Sweden

Swedish shelters require an adoption application and home visit. Animals are chipped, vaccinated, and sterilized. Cross-border placements within the EU use the standard pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Nancy, answered.

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