Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Roy is a Kangal-type dog who was found as a small puppy and has been waiting for his chance to find a real home ever since. Roy has a great character and a big heart. He loves to play, cuddle, and socialize, and his favorite activity is lying on his back in a position for grooming. He gets along great with everyone, both with people and other dogs. His beautiful appearance perfectly matches his beautiful nature. Roy is looking for a family that will finally show him what life is like outside of a shelter and give him the love he has been patiently waiting for his whole life.

HR·Show original

Roy je pas u tipu kangala koji je kao mala beba pronađen i od tada čeka svoju priliku za pravi dom. Roy ima odličan karakter i veliko srce. Obožava igru, maženje i druženje, a najdraža aktivnost mu je ležanje na leđima u pozi za češkanje. Odlično se slaže sa svima, i s ljudima i s drugim psima. Njegov predivan izgled točno prati njegovu predivnu narav. Roy traži obitelj koja će mu napokon pokazati kako izgleda život izvan skloništa i pružiti mu ljubav koju cijeli život strpljivo čeka.

About Roy

What life with Roy looks like

Roy is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Sklonište za napuštene životinje Zadar in Zadar.

A 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 Croatia

Croatian shelters include sterilization, vaccinations, and microchip ID in the adoption process. Several work with Italian and German rescue networks for placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Roy, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Roy?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Sklonište za napuštene životinje Zadar handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Roy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Roy if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Sklonište za napuštene životinje Zadar 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Roy 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 Roy 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 Sklonište za napuštene životinje Zadar early rather than rehoming privately; they know Roy 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 (HR). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
