Russell

Border Collie · Male · Adult · 5 years

Ålder: Ca 2021 Kön: Hanhund Ras: Border collie-blandning Kastrerad: Nej Kontaktperson: Team 1. Adoptionsavgift: 8000 kr Förmedlad från: Kildare Dog Pound Befinner sig nu: Dog Pound på Irland Kan bo med hundar: Ja Kan bo med katt: Vet ej Kan bo med barn i åldern: 9-13 år och uppåt Vilken miljö passar: Kan bo i lugnare område Aktivitetsnivå: Medium-hög Adoptörens hundvana: Har hundvana sen tidigare Russell lämnades till ett pound på Irland eftersom han inte ansågs vara tillräckligt bra på sitt jobb som vallhund. Russell är en vänlig och social kille. Det går bra att hantera honom och han tycker om att vara nära. Vi vet inte om han är van vid att bo inomhus eller om han har erfarenhet av katter eller barn. Russell kommer att kastreras innan han flyttar till Sverige. Russell är cirka 65 centimeter hög till toppen av huvudet. Vill du ge Russell ett härligt hundliv? Skicka då in en intresseanmälan.

About Russell

What life with Russell looks like

Russell is a medium-sized adult border collie dog waiting at Hundar Utan Hem 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 Russell, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Russell?
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 Russell on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Russell 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Russell 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 Russell 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 Russell 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.
