Negrutu

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Negruțu is a 10-year-old boy with a gentle soul and deep, expressive eyes. He is a little shy at first, but once he gains trust, he becomes a calm, loyal companion who is very attached to his person. He was rescued from a field, where he lived in danger together with his friend, the female puppy Foxy. Food was brought to them every day, but their lives were uncertain. One day a decision was made that changed their destiny: they were taken to the vet and then home, to safety. Negruțu has been in our care for a year and has proven to be a balanced and grateful dog. When he was rescued, he was diagnosed with dirofilariasis (heartworm), but he was treated and is now healthy, in good general condition. He has a calm and quiet temperament. He is compatible with other dogs, both males and females, and gets along well with children. He is used to staying home alone for several hours, is well behaved in the car, and relieves himself outside. He currently lives in a house and has adapted very well to family life

Negruțu este un băiat de 10 ani, cu suflet blând și privire profundă. Este puțin timid, la început, dar odată ce capătă încredere, devine un companion calm, loial și foarte atașat de omul lui. A fost salvat de pe un câmp, unde trăia în pericol alături de prietena lui, cățelușa Foxy. Mâncarea le era dusă zilnic, însă viața lor era nesigură. Într-o zi s-a luat decizia care le-a schimbat destinul: au fost duși la medic și apoi acasă, în siguranță. Negruțu este de un an în grija noastră și a demonstrat că este un câine echilibrat și recunoscător. Când a fost salvat, a fost diagnosticat cu dirofilarioză (viermi cardiaci), însă a fost tratat și în prezent este sănătos, cu o stare generală bună. Are un temperament calm și liniștit. Este compatibil cu alți câini, atât masculi cât și femele, și se înțelege bine cu copiii. Este obișnuit să rămână singur acasă mai multe ore, este cuminte în mașină și își face nevoile afară.

About Negrutu

What life with Negrutu looks like

Negrutu is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Little Paws Squad and The Environment in Romania.

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 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 Negrutu, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Negrutu?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Little Paws Squad and The Environment handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Negrutu on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Negrutu if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Little Paws Squad and The Environment 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Negrutu 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 Negrutu 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 Little Paws Squad and The Environment early rather than rehoming privately; they know Negrutu 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 (RO). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
