Oak

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

Oreo’s story began on the streets. Last October, while our volunteers were visiting their apartment, they noticed a friendly black-and-white boy roaming the area. After seeing him around for a few days, Alina was contacted by someone working nearby who asked for help with him - and that’s when 2 year old Oreo’s journey to safety truly began. Despite clearly having had a tough time, Oreo showed nothing but love. He walked straight up to our volunteers on the street, happily accepting fuss and affection, and even calmly allowed them to remove the many ticks covering his body. While some locals were shooing him away, Oreo remained gentle and trusting, never losing his friendly nature. He was even seen softly sniffing the local cats and wandering around alongside them, completely at ease. Now safe at the shelter, Oreo continues to show everyone just how wonderful he is. This handsome 30kg boy is full of affection and enthusiasm, jumping up daily to greet Alina and her husband and soaking up every bit of attention he can get. He truly adores people and loves being close to those who care for him. Oreo would be happiest as the only male dog in the home. He could live with a female dog or enjoy being an only dog where he can have all the attention to himself. Because he can be a bit jumpy when excited, a home with older children would be best. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving companion who has already shown incredible resilience and kindness despite his past, Oreo could be the perfect match. He’s ready to leave shelter life behind and start the next chapter of his story - could it be with you?

About Oak

What life with Oak looks like

Oak 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 Oak, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Oak?
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 Oak on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Oak 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 Oak 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 Oak 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 Oak 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.
