River

Female · Puppy · 4 months

Age: Approx. April 2026 Gender: Female Breed: Mixed Breed Neutered: No Contact Person: Team 1. Adoption Fee: 13,000 SEK Brought from: Limerick Animal Welfare Currently Located At: Rescue in Ireland Can Live With Dogs: Yes Can Live With Cats: Unknown Can Live With Children Aged: 6-8 years and older What Kind of Environment Is Suitable: Can live in a quieter area Activity Level: Medium-to-high Dog Experience of Adopter: Has previous dog experience River and her sister Rain were abandoned and ended up at a rescue in Ireland. It’s unclear what these lovely sisters have been through, but initially they’re afraid of new people, and we suspect they’ve been mistreated before arriving at the rescue. Over time, however, they’re developing and becoming braver with each passing day. River enjoys playing and happily socializes with other dogs. All basic training lies ahead of her, including socialization, everyday obedience, and environmental training. River is expected to grow into a medium-sized dog when fully grown.

Ålder: Ca april 2026 Kön: Tik Ras: Blandras Kastrerad: Nej Kontaktperson: Team 1. Adoptionsavgift: 13000 kr Förmedlad från: Limerick Animal Welfare Befinner sig nu: Rescue på Irland Kan bo med hundar: Ja Kan bo med katt: Vet ej Kan bo med barn i åldern: 6-8 år och uppåt Vilken miljö passar: Kan bo i lugnare område Aktivitetsnivå: Medium-hög Adoptörens hundvana: Har hundvana sen tidigare River och hennes syster Rain dumpades och kom på så vis till ett rescue på Irland. Vad dessa fina systrar varit med om är oklart, men de är initialt rädda för nya människor och vi misstänker att de har blivit illa behandlade innan de kom till rescuet. Med tiden utvecklas de och blir modigare för varje dag som går. River uppskattar lek och umgås gärna med andra hundar. All grundläggande utbildning ligger framför henne, vilket inkluderar socialisering, vardagslydnad och miljöträning. River förväntas bli en mellanstor hund som fullvuxen.

About River

What life with River looks like

River is a medium-sized puppy/kitten dog waiting at Hundar Utan Hem in Stockholm.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇸🇪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 River, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about River?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Hundar Utan Hem handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw River on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt River if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Hundar Utan Hem 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 River 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 River 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 Hundar Utan Hem early rather than rehoming privately; they know River 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.
