Adopt Simba

Female · Young · 1 year

A happy and energetic boy with lots of charm and joy, Simba is an Amstaff mix with a big personality, lots of energy, and a cheerful drive in daily life. He meets life with great enthusiasm and can sometimes get so excited that his whole body moves along! He can then become a bit bouncy, playful, and full of speed! Like a big puppy still learning to land on his feet. Behind all the energy is a kind and social guy who really likes people and likes to be where the action is. He is also very treat-motivated, which makes him both fun and easy to work with. Sometimes all the energy can take over too much, and then Simba needs help to calm down and find peace in situations where he becomes very excited. As an Amstaff mix, he can also be a bit stubborn from time to time, especially when he is happy or eager, and then he needs continued guidance and structure in daily life. Simba feels best when he gets clear boundaries, moderate stimulation, and a person who helps him find a good balance between activity and rest. Thanks to his big interest in treats and his positive attitude, there are great opportunities to continue developing together through training and cooperation! Simba is looking for an active and engaged home that appreciates a happy and energetic dog with a lot of personality. He would thrive with someone who wants to spend time on the relationship, training, and shared activities, while helping him find calm and structure in daily life. A home where he gets to be involved and join in on different things would suit him very well. With the right guidance and security, Simba is an incredibly charming and loving dog who spreads a lot of joy around him. Answer the questions below to get an indication of how your daily life and plans match a dog's needs. It helps both you and us to find the right match and give the dog a safe home. You need to take the test before you can submit your interest application.

En glad och energifylld kille med mycket charm och livsglädje Simba är en Amstaff-blandning med stor personlighet, mycket energi och ett glatt driv i vardagen. Han möter livet med stor entusiasm och kan ibland bli så uppspelt att hela kroppen hänger med! Han kan då bli lite hoppig, busig och full av fart! Ungefär som en stor valp som fortfarande håller på att landa i sig själv. Bakom all energi finns en snäll och social kille som tycker mycket om människor och gärna vill vara med där det händer. Han är dessutom väldigt godismotiverad, vilket gör honom både rolig och lätt att arbeta tillsammans med. Ibland kan all energi ta över lite för mycket, och då behöver Simba hjälp att varva ner och hitta lugn i situationer där han blir väldigt uppspelt. Som amstaff-blandning kan han också bli lite bufflig emellanåt, särskilt när han blir glad eller ivrig, och då behöver han fortsatt vägledning och struktur i vardagen. Simba mår som bäst när han får tydliga ramar, lagom aktivering och en människa som hjälper honom att hitta en bra balans mellan aktivitet och vila. Tack vare sitt stora intresse för godis och sin positiva inställning finns det fina möjligheter att fortsätta utvecklas tillsammans genom träning och samarbete! Simba söker ett aktivt och engagerat hem som uppskattar en glad och energifylld hund med mycket personlighet. Han skulle trivas hos någon som vill lägga tid på relation, träning och gemensamma aktiviteter, samtidigt som man hjälper honom att hitta lugn och struktur i vardagen. Ett hem där han får vara delaktig och följa med på olika saker skulle passa honom väldigt bra. Med rätt vägledning och trygghet är Simba en otroligt charmig och kärleksfull hund som sprider mycket glädje omkring sig. Svara på frågorna nedan för att få en indikation på hur din vardag och dina planer stämmer med en hunds behov. Det hjälper både dig och oss att hitta rätt matchning och ge hunden ett tryggt hem. Du behöver göra testet innan du kan skicka in din intresseanmälan.

About Simba

What life with Simba looks like

Simba is a large young adult dog waiting at Hundstallet in Stockholm.

An 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 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 Simba, answered.

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