Tova

Female · Adult · 6 years

Tova is a gentle and sensitive girl looking for a new loving home without children. Tova's owner says: "We've had Tova since she was a puppy and she is the kindest soul with so much love to give. She is a real outdoor dog who loves to move around in nature, use her nose, swim, drive birds on fields, camp and sleep in a sleeping bag. For really good treats, she does almost anything! Once she has learned to know someone, she can be a real couch potato and cuddle. She is used to other dogs, although she may bark at first, and would like to eat in peace. She enjoys living as a single dog with access to friendly dog friends to go for walks with. Tova has always been a very anxious and easily stressed girl. She needs to take things at her own pace in new situations and when meeting unfamiliar people and dogs. She is allergic to dust and alpine pollen, so it is important to bathe her and clean her ears every week. We have chosen to cut her coat to make it easier to keep her dry. Tova is our gem that is being rehomed because she is afraid of children. She is looking for a safe home without a lot of activity, where she can go out and enjoy life in the woods and countryside."

Ålder: 2020-04-06 Kön: Tik Ras: Engelsk springer spaniel (har stamtavla) Kastrerad: Nej Kontaktperson: Team 1. Adoptionsavgift: 7000 kr Förmedlad från: Hem i Sverige Befinner sig nu: I sin familj i Uppsala Kan bo med hundar: Nej Kan bo med katt: Ja Kan bo med barn i åldern: 14 år och uppåt Vilken miljö passar: Kan endast bo i hus på landet Aktivitetsnivå: Medium-hög Adoptörens hundvana: Har hundvana sen tidigare Tova är en mjuk och känslig tjej som söker ett nytt kärleksfullt hem utan barn. Tovas matte berättar: ”Vi har haft Tova sedan hon var valp och hon är den snällaste själen som har så mycket kärlek att ge. Hon är en riktig friluftshund som älskar att röra på sig i naturen, använda nosen, bada, kortdriva fåglar på fält, tälta och sova i sovsäck. För riktigt gott godis gör hon nästan vad som helst! När hon väl har lärt känna någon kan hon vara en riktig soffpotatis och kelgris. Hon är van vid andra hundar, även om hon kan skälla i början, och vill gärna äta i fred. Hon trivs bra med att bo som ensamhund med tillgång till snälla hundkompisar att gå promenader med. Tova har alltid varit en mycket ängslig och lättstressad tjej. Hon behöver få ta saker i sin egen takt i nya situationer och vid möten med okända människor och hundar. Hon är allergisk mot damm och alpollen, så det är viktigt att bada henne och sköta öronen varje vecka. Vi har valt att klippa ner pälsen för att lättare hålla henne torr. Tova är vår ögonsten som omplaceras eftersom hon är rädd för barn. Hon söker ett tryggt hem utan spring, där hon får komma ut och njuta av livet i skog och mark.” Tova är 48 centimeter i mankhöjd och väger 17 kilo. Klappar ditt hjärta extra för fina Tova?

About Tova

What life with Tova looks like

Tova is a medium-sized adult 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 Tova, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Tova?
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 Tova on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Tova 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Tova 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 Tova 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 Tova 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.
