How do I contact the shelter about Singurel?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Speranța Shelter Foundation handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Singurel on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Singurel if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Speranța Shelter Foundation 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 Singurel 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 Singurel 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 Speranța Shelter Foundation early rather than rehoming privately; they know Singurel 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 (EN). 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.

Singurel

Unknown

The Story of Singurel Found between life and death, alone by the roadside Singurel was found alone, abandoned on the side of a road in the village of Maia. He was in a state that is hard to describe: his skin was an open wound, infested with maggots, and his eyes said more than words ever could. A heartbreaking sadness—somewhere between life and death. He was rushed to the shelter and immediately placed on the treatment table. What you see today is already a vastly improved version of the condition he was in back then. A race against time began to save him—one in which every act of help mattered enormously. Because he was found alone, we named him Singurel (“Little One Alone”). A temporary name. Because from the very first day, we promised him he would never be alone again. From an open wound to a dog who is beginning to hope Singurel began treatment for the severe skin disease he was suffering from, and the results appeared gradually. He regained the strength to stand, to walk, to enjoy life. He sleeps a lot—he is still recovering—and when we brush him to gently remove the scabs, he stays perfectly still; you would almost swear he is purring. Singurel is a setter cross: a medium-to-large dog, energetic, playful, extremely friendly and intelligent. A dog who wants nothing more than what we all long for—not to be alone. When “Singurel” becomes Bengi and is never alone again Today, Singurel is no longer alone. His new family chose him and changed his name to Bengi —a name that suits a healthy, loved, and happy dog. His adoption is thanks to Cosmina and her family, who said “yes” without hesitation, and to our shelter team. Without the hard work, patience, and dedication of the people who fight every day for the dogs of Speranța, Singurel’s transformation would not have been possible. His journey—from the roadside where he was condemned to die to the arms of a loving family—is living proof that rescue is not only about medical treatment. True rescue happens when a dog is chosen. Bengi is one of our success stories. A story about rescue, patience, community, and love. Thank you to everyone who chose not to look away. 🐾 Singurel has been given a new chance thanks to your generosity. Your donations can help us save other innocent lives. Thank you for any contribution!

About Singurel

What life with Singurel looks like

Singurel is a medium-sized adult dog waiting at Speranța Shelter Foundation in Romania.

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.
