Adopt West

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

West je jednogodišnji mješanac u tipu oštrodlakog terijera sa simpatičnom bradicom i brkovima. Malog je rasta, težak svega 7,5 kilograma. Svojim umiljatim okicama i nježnim karakterom osvaja na prvu, a njegova blaga narav čini ga savršenim saputnikom za mirniji, porodični život.Po prirodi je radoznao, privržen i radostan pas. Prilikom šetnji će u većini slučajeva samostalno prići i pozdraviti se, dok u nekim situacijama zna biti stidljiviji kada se nađe u nepoznatoj sredini pa mu je potrebno malo vremena da se potpuno opusti i pokaže svoju pravu, razigranu i umiljatu stranu. Pri susretu sa ljudima često od uzbuđenja skače i propinje se na zadnje šapice kako bi ih pozdravio, pa bi bilo dobro poraditi na tom ponašanju, iako zbog njegove male veličine to trenutno ne predstavlja veći problem. Također, ne voli ostajati sam kod kuće i tada može postati pomalo vokalan, jer se njegov osjećaj nesigurnosti pojačava kada nije u društvu ljudi, ali već radi na popravljanju toga u foster domu.West ima oštru dlaku za čije je održavanje dovoljno redovno sedmično iščešljavanje, a u prelaznim periodima linjanja kao za većinu pasa je potrebno raditi to češće kako bi ona ostala uredna i zdrava. Također se vrlo lijepo ponaša tokom grooming tretmana, što dodatno olakšava njegovu njegu. Već je naučen na kućni red i nuždu obavlja napolju, što ga čini spremnim za život u domu bez većih prilagodbi. Brzo usvaja komande jer je dobro motivisan poslasticama, pa će uz malo rada i dosljednosti bez problema savladati i nove stvari. Iako ga još treba usmjeravati kroz učenje, generalno je miran i poslušan psić koji rado sarađuje sa svojim ljudima.West posebno uživa u društvu ljudi i maženju, pa bi idealan dom za njega bio onaj u kojem će imati puno pažnje, ljubavi i bliskosti. Sa drugim psima je izuzetno dobar i prijateljski nastrojen. Pri prvom kontaktu pokazuje submisivno ponašanje, što ga čini laganim za uklapanje u domove gdje već postoji pas. Dobar je i sa macama, kao i sa djecom i drugim ljudima, pa se može prilagoditi različitim tipovima domaćinstava. Bilo da je riječ o porodici sa djecom ili osobama koje žele nježnog i umiljatog pratioca, West će uzvratiti toplinom, privrženošću i mnoštvom lijepih zajedničkih trenutaka.

About West

What life with West looks like

West is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Dogs Trust Bosnia and Herzegovina in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

An young 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 Bosnia and Herzegovina

The shelter typically completes the animal's vaccinations, microchipping, and pet passport before adoption. Specific fees and process details vary by shelter and country — confirm directly via the contact details in the sidebar.

Frequently asked

Adopting West, answered.

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