Mixed Breed · Male

Birth Date: 2012 Size: Medium Neutered Skip is a dog who lived in a large community. He was the youngest, the smallest, and clearly the last to eat. Despite this, it was a constant struggle for survival, and he was constantly attacked by the other dogs. Thus, Skip was born with a non-functional leg. It doesn't seem to bother him, even though he can't use it. The problem is the knee joint that was affected. Despite a difficult start, Skip wants and deserves a family. A case like this special one, deserves a special family. Click here for more photos. Contact:

Mascul Data nasterii: 2012 Talie: Medie Castrat Skip este un catel care locuia in o comunitate mare de catei. Era cel mai tanar, cel mai mic si evident ultimul la mancare. Pentru ca totusi era o permanenta lupta pentru supravietuire, era constant atacat de ceilalti catei. Astfel Skip s-a ales cu un picior nefunctional. Nu pare sa il incomodeze, chiar daca nu il poate folosi. Problema e articulatia genunchiului care a fost afectata. In ciuda inceputului greu pe care l-a avut, Skip vrea si merita o familie. Un astfel de caz special, merita o familie speciala. Click aici pentru mai multe poze Contact:

About Skip

What life with Skip looks like

Skip is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Asociatia ROBI / 4animals.ro 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.

🇷🇴Adopting from Romania

Romanian rescues handle the highest volume of cross-border adoptions in the EU. Animals are quarantined and fully vetted before transport. Reputable rescues maintain detailed health records and post-adoption follow-up.

Frequently asked

Adopting Skip, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Skip?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Asociatia ROBI / 4animals.ro handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Skip on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Skip if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Asociatia ROBI / 4animals.ro 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 Skip 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 Skip 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 Asociatia ROBI / 4animals.ro early rather than rehoming privately; they know Skip 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 (RO). 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.
