Adopt Zhak (Жак)

Male · Puppy · 8 months

This is Jacques of 8 months (born in February 2024), a boy from the orphanage of Ceslavtsi. Shared in color and medium size dog. Like any baby, he is playful, he loves walking, he knows the world around him and the people. A good, handsome earpiece who seeks his family and home to grow happy and play at will. Jacques doesn't deserve to spend the rest of his life in a cage, so if you want a dog and you'll be happy to have it from a shelter - adopt him. It is suitable for families with children, as well as for more active people given their age. He's waiting for you at the shelter every day between hours, as well as every Saturday at the tours of the band of the 1500s between hours

Това е Жак на 8 месеца(роден през февруари 2024-та), момче от приют “Сеславци”. Шарен на цвят и средно по размери куче. Като всяко едно бебе той е игрив, обича много разходките, да опознава, макар и предпазливо света около себе си и хората. Добър, красив ушатко/упашатко, който търси своето семейство и дом, в който да расте щастлив и да играе на воля. Жак не заслужава да прекара живота си в клетка, затова ако искаш куче и ще се радваш то да е от приют - осинови го 🐶❤️🏠👏 Подходящ е за семейства с деца, както и за по-активни хора предвид възрастта му. Той те чака в приют “Сеславци” всеки ден между ч., както и всяка събота на разходките на Бандата на 1500-те между ч. Твой Жак, приют “Сеславци”

About Zhak (Жак)

What life with Zhak (Жак) looks like

Zhak (Жак) is a small puppy/kitten dog waiting at Ecoravnovesie Sofia in Sofia.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇧🇬Adopting from Bulgaria

Bulgarian shelters typically include full vet workup, sterilization, and passport. Many coordinate with EU rescue partners for direct transport to adopter cities in Germany, Netherlands, and Austria.

Frequently asked

Adopting Zhak (Жак), answered.

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