Poppy

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

He is a 4-year-old boy who weighs around 17kg. He is ready to leave his past behind and start a brand-new chapter after being rescued from a kill shelter. While he’s had a tough start, you’d never guess it once you get to know him. Buzz can be a little shy when meeting new people, but he warms up quickly and turns into the friendly, affectionate dog he truly is. Once he trusts you, he’s all in – loyal, sweet, and always up for some fun. He absolutely loves his walks and recently had the time of his life splashing around in a mountain stream – water is definitely his happy place! He’d really suit someone who enjoys the outdoors and wants a dog to share their adventures with. Buzz does have some quirks. He’s protective around food, so he’ll need to be the only pet in the home, and he’s not suitable to live with cats or children. He’s happiest in a calm, adult-only environment where he can relax and just be himself. Could you be his new adventure?

About Poppy

What life with Poppy looks like

Poppy is a medium-sized 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. 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 Poppy, answered.

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