How do I contact the shelter about Ralf?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Stray Dogs Bosnien e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Ralf on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Ralf if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Stray Dogs Bosnien e.V. 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 Ralf 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 Ralf 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 Stray Dogs Bosnien e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Ralf 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 (DE). 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.

Adopt Ralf

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Name Steckbrief ♂️ male / neutered 🎂 Nov. 2020 (estimated) ⚖️ approx. 36 cm, 10 kg ✔️ vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed 📖 Bosnian pet certificate 🐱 compatibility with others: Unfortunately, cat compatibility cannot be tested on-site. 📍 animal shelter Neverland (Bosnia) 🏡 Ralf would also greatly appreciate a loving foster home. Hey everyone, I'm the sweet Ralf! I was once a family dog – or rather, I was originally purchased as such. The family, however, had not done any prior research and was completely surprised to find out that a dog requires mental stimulation, time, and attention. 😱 That seemed to be too much to ask, so they simply tied me up on an empty piece of land, where I lived my lonely life unprotected day in and day out. By my good fortune, a kind man took pity on me. With the help of the animal shelter Neverland, he was able to convince the family that it would be better for me to find a new home. 🙏 At the animal shelter, I truly blossomed; I thoroughly enjoy every day without a mean chain around my neck! I frolic joyfully in the run, as if there’s no tomorrow, and get along with all the other dogs. I avoid any trouble, life is too beautiful to argue. ☺️ My greatest love is for people; I would follow them anywhere. Never to be alone again, but to be loved wholeheartedly and to be included in everything, that is my greatest dream. 🥰 Are you looking for a lifelong best friend with whom you can go through thick and thin, share many adventures, and cuddle for hours on end? Then you are looking for ME! 🤩 So don't hesitate to ask about Ralf right away, so we can start our life together soon.

Name Steckbrief ♂️ männlich / kastriert 🎂 11/2020 (geschätzt) ⚖️ ca. 36 cm, 10 kg ✔️ geimpft, gechipt, entwurmt 📖 bosnischer Heimtierausweis 🐈 Verträglichkeit mit Katzen kann vor Ort leider nicht getestet werden 📍 Tierheim Neverland (Bosnien) 🏡 Ralf würde sich auch sehr über eine liebevolle Pflegestelle freuen. Hey Leute, ich bin der süße Ralf! Ich war einmal ein Familienhund – oder na ja, jedenfalls wurde ich ursprünglich als ein solcher angeschafft. Die Familie hatte sich vorab jedoch überhaupt nicht informiert und stellte völlig überrascht fest, dass ein Hund Beschäftigung, Zeit und Aufmerksamkeit benötigt. 😱 Das war anscheinend zu viel verlangt, denn sie hat mich daraufhin einfach auf einem leeren Grundstück angebunden, wo ich ohne jeglichen Schutz tagaus, tagein mein einsames Dasein fristete. Zu meinem Glück hatte ein lieber Mann großes Mitleid mit mir. Mithilfe vom Tierheim Neverland konnte er die Familie schließlich überzeugen, dass es besser für mich wäre, wenn ich ein neues Zuhause finde. 🙏 Im Tierheim bin ich richtig aufgeblüht, ich genieße jeden einzelnen Tag ohne fiese Kette um den Hals sehr! Ich tobe fröhlich durch den Auslauf, als gäb’s kein Morgen, und verstehe mich mit allen Hunden super. Jeglichem Ärger gehe ich aus dem Weg, das Leben ist viel zu schön, um sich zu streiten. ☺️ Meine größte Liebe gilt den Menschen, am liebsten würde ich ihnen überallhin folgen. Nie mehr einsam sein, sondern von ganzem Herzen geliebt und bei allem mit dabei, das ist mein allergrößter Traum. 🥰 Du suchst einen besten Freund fürs Leben, mit dem du durch Dick und Dünn gehen, viele Abenteuer bestreiten und nächtelang durchkuscheln kannst? Dann suchst du wohl genau MICH! 🤩 Zögere also am besten nicht lang, sondern frag ganz schnell nach Ralf, damit wir schon bald gemeinsam durchs Leben gehen können. 🚶‍♀️🐕 Videos von Ralf Informationen zur

About Ralf

What life with Ralf looks like

Ralf is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Stray Dogs Bosnien e.V. in Schwabach.

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 Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.
