Adopt Scarlett

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

From being shy and withdrawn upon arrival at the enclosure, Scarlett now has great love for her caregivers. She rushes forward and loves when they give her some alone time. Scarlett is friendly and respectful, and expects the same in return. If you're a new friend, you must build a wonderful friendship slowly. No waving or raised voices. Her beautiful eyes convey important messages. The best part is the playpark moments. Here, Scarlett and Winona run as fast as they can – or they busily play with all the toys the staff have given them. They often seek contact with the person who offers a treat – then a friendly pat is given – but then the game calls again. Scarlett also enjoys the walks taken around the enclosure in the company of a canine friend. She takes in all the sights and exciting scents. If she feels insecure, she seeks support from her friends. For the beautiful Scarlett, we now seek a loving forever home where she can continue her positive development at her own pace. The home should be located in a peaceful environment connected to fine rural areas, and you should also have a slightly more relaxed lifestyle – but still enjoy being out in the fields. No small children. Scarlett would greatly benefit from a kind and secure canine companion in her new life – so that is a big plus. We believe she with her gentle personality could also become a good friend to a kind cat. It is important to consider that since Scarlett grew up in the enclosure, she has no exposure to society – and must never be placed in environments, situations, or before people where she feels insecure. Background: Three months old and alone in the world, little Scarlett and her sister Winona were discovered under a parked car near Cernavodas hospital. SaveTheDog was called. It wasn't easy – but after much effort, they finally managed to coax the shy girls out.

Från att ha varit blyg och tillbakadragen vid ankomsten till hägnet har Scarlett nu stor kärlek till sina vårdare. Hon kommer snabbt rusande och älskar när de ägnar henne lite egen tid. Scarlett är vänlig och respektfull och förväntar dig detsamma i retur. Är du en ny bekantskap får du varsamt bygga upp en fantastisk kamratskap. Inget viftande och höjda röster. Hennes vackra ögon förmedlar viktiga budskap. Roligast av allt är stunderna i lekparken. Här springer Scarlett och Winona så fort de kan – eller busar runt med alla leksaker som personalen gett dem. De söker gärna kontakt med den människa som finns där och som bjuder på en godisbit – då kan man mysa lite vänskapligt – men sedan lockar leken igen. Scarlett tycker också om de promenader som företas kring hägnet i sällskap av någon hundkamrat. Hon tar med iver in alla syner och spännande dofter. Känner hon sig osäker söker hon stöd från kamraterna. Till vackra Scarlett söker vi nu det kärleksfulla evighetshemmet där hon får fortsätta sin positiva utveckling i egen takt. Hemmet ska vara beläget i lugn miljö i anknytning till fina strövområden och man bör även hemmavid ha en lite lugnare livsstil – men samtidigt trivas ute i markerna. Inga småbarn. Scarlett skulle ha stort stöd i sitt nya liv av en snäll och trygg hundkamrat – så det är ett stort plus. Vi tror att hon med sin mjuka personlighet även kan bli god vän med en snäll katt. Viktigt att ha i åtanke är att då Scarlett vuxit upp i hägnet saknar hon helt exponering mot samhället – och får ALDRIG pressas i miljöer, situationer eller inför människor där hon känner sig osäker. BakgrundTre månader gamla och ensamma i världen upptäcktes lilla Scarlett och systern Winona under en parkerad bil nära Cernavodas sjukhus. SaveTheDog tillkallades. Det var inte helt lätt – men efter anselig ansträngning lyckades man till sist locka fram de skygga flickorna. Storögda och förskräckta anlände de till veterinärkliniken där snälla händer välkomnade och ställde fram mat och va

About Scarlett

What life with Scarlett looks like

Scarlett is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hundhjälpen in Stockholm.

An young 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 Scarlett, answered.

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