Adopt Rebecca

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Rebecca is a delightful little girl. Beneath her shy demeanor lies a beautiful gem. The kennel is not the right place for her; she has a very strong need to leave for a calmer environment. After being terrified of everything, she now clings to her favorite people who have taken her into their hearts and understand her needs. Petting is delightful, and the opportunity to go for a walk allows her to relax and curiously investigate all the scents – often with a canine companion. Rebecca loves playing with her companions – she has a wonderful relationship with all of them and is part of what’s happening. The group shows each other mutual trust and respect, giving Rebecca the security she needs. Dogs are important to her, and she thrives in the companionship that a small pack can give her. She seeks out best friends and cuddles with them – or they simply huddle together and rest closely to each other. We are now looking for a home for this fine girl filled with love and where there are not many demands. Dog life should be characterized by empathy and tolerance – and Rebecca should be given the time she needs to start settling into daily life. The home should be in a calm location near fine walking areas. No young children. A kind and stable canine companion is a must so that Rebecca can have a role model and playmate. If there is a cat, it must be kind and dog-friendly. Note – NO pressure should be present in new environments and when meeting new people – here it is Rebecca’s needs and prerequisites that should be in focus. BackgroundIn October 2022, Cernavoda was a black month. The municipality hired dog catchers to capture the unprotected dogs on the streets – a grim procedure followed by a grim detention and a grim, safe death. SaveTheDogs helped as many dogs as they could – those that were social and easy to rehome – and those that otherwise would not have a chance. Scary scenes played out on the streets with dogs screaming in fear and pain – and men gaping and swearing.

Rebecca är en förtjusande liten fröken. Bakom den blyga framtoningen gnistrar en vacker juvel. Hägnet är inte rätt plats för henne utan hon har ett väldigt stort behov av att få lämna för en lugnare miljö. Från att ha varit rädd för alla tyr hon sig nu till sina favoritpersoner som tagit henne till sina hjärtan och förstår hennes behov. Mysande är trevligt och att få gå på promenad får henne att slappna av och nyfiket undersöka alla dofter – tillsammans med en hundkompis. Rebecca älskar att leka med sina kamrater – hon har en fin relation till samtliga och är med i det som händer. Gruppen visar varandra välvilja och respekt och ger Rebecca den trygghet hon behöver. Hundar är viktiga för henne och hon trivs i den tillhörighet som en liten flock kan ge henne. Hon söker upp bästisarna och busar till det med leksakerna i parken – eller så bara kryper de ihop och vilar tätt intill varandra. Vi söker nu för denna fina tjej ett hem fyllt av kärlek och där man inte har en mängd krav. Hundlivet ska präglas av empati och tolerans – och Rebecca ska ges den tid som behövs för att börja ta för sig i vardagen. Hemmet ska vara lugnt beläget i anslutning till fina strövområden. Inga unga barn. En snäll och stabil hundkamrat är ett måste så att Rebcca får en förebild och en lekkamrat. Finns katt ska den vara snäll och hundvan. Obs – INGEN press ska förekomma i nya miljöer och inför nya människor – här är det Rebeccas behov och förutsättningar som ska stå i fokus. BakgrundOktober 2022 var en svart månad i Cernavoda. Då hyrde kommunen in hundfångare för att fånga de oskyddade hundarna på gatan – en grym procedur följd av en grym förvaring och en grym, säker död. SaveTheDogs hjälpte så många hundar man bara kunde – de som var sociala och lätta byten – och de som annars inte hade en chans. Skräckscener utspelade sig på gatorna med hundar som skrek av fasa och smärta - och män som gapade och svor. Mysa levde i utkanten av staden där hon i en liten kulle funnit en håla – som blev hem och

About Rebecca

What life with Rebecca looks like

Rebecca 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 Rebecca, answered.

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