Xin

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

OUR carried out a rescue mission a few year ago now saving Orville, along with 7 other dogs from one of the most horrific Kill Shelter in Roman, Romania. Sadly Orville is one of the last who are still waiting to be noticed. Settled nicely, Orville is ready to embark on the next chapter of his life and hopes to start afresh in the UK. Around 6 years old, Orville is seeking a home where he can enjoy attention from his owners and learn the luxury of ‘a dogs life’. Although he gets along well with other dogs, Orville would prefer to be the only pet in the home as he can become jealous when attention is not solely on him. Orville is a very social lad and and is learning to walk well on the lead so we think he will learn to love exploring the outdoors as a member of the family. His gentle nature shows with the fosters young children, who is happy to be affectionate with He’s estimated at around 30kg.

About Xin

What life with Xin looks like

Xin is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at O.U.R. Dog Foundation.

An 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 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 Xin, answered.

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