Adopt Tussi

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 3 years

Tussi is a mixed breed dog born on 30.05.2023. He is a big boy weighing 43 kg. His father is likely a Rhodesian Ridgeback and his mother is a mix of American bulldog, boerboel and Rottweiler. Note that this dog is new to the shelter and changes to the listing may be made! With people: He is friendly and seeking contact. He is used to older children in their teenage years. With other animals: He has previously lived with another dog and has been with several others here. He can probably live with another dog. Does not want to live with a cat! Activity level and training: He is food motivated and a quick learner. He is just as fond of mental training as physical training. He knows several skills and is very physically strong. He really wants to greet all dogs he meets on walks, so he needs more socialization training.

Tussi er en blandingshund født 30.05.2023. Han er en stor gutt på 43 kg. Far skal være rhodesian ridgeback og mor en blanding av amerikansk bulldog, boerboel og rottweiler. Med mennesker: Han er glad og kontaktsøkende. Er vant til eldre barn i tenårsalder. Med andre dyr: Har fra tidligere bodd med annen hund, og vært med flere hos oss. Kan nok bo med annen hund. Skal ikke bo med katt! Aktivitetsnivå og trening: Han er godbitmotivert og lærenem. Er vel så glad i mental trening som fysisk trening. Han kan flere ferdigheter og er veldig fysisk sterk. Aller helst vil han hilse på alle hunder han møter på tur, så han trenger mer passeringstrening. Type hjem: Han egner seg ikke til å bo sentralt eller i leilighet, da han har endel vokt i seg. Nytt hjem bør ha noe erfaring med vokterhunder.

About Tussi

What life with Tussi looks like

Tussi is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at FOD in Oslo.

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 Norway

Norwegian rescues require thorough background checks. Animals leave with a Nordic pet passport and full vetting. Norway is outside the EU so import rules differ slightly — TRACES applies.

Frequently asked

Adopting Tussi, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Tussi?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. FOD handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Tussi on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Tussi if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — FOD 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 Tussi 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 Tussi 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 FOD early rather than rehoming privately; they know Tussi 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 (NO). 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.
