How do I contact the shelter about Abby?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. ÚVP Košice handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Abby on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Abby if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ÚVP Košice 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 Abby 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 Abby 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 ÚVP Košice early rather than rehoming privately; they know Abby 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 (SK). 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.

Abby

Mixed Breed · Female

Abby, along with her sisters Ayla and Arii, was found on Valalická 1 street in Košice's Krásna district. The three little sisters have been taken into our care and are now each waiting for their own family. Abby is a sweet, playful, and curious puppy. She enjoys playing, exploring her surroundings, and watching everything that happens around her. She enjoys the company of humans and doesn't miss her typical puppy playfulness and desire to learn new things. She is still very young and is learning a lot. She needs patient people who will gradually introduce her to everyday life, new places, people, and situations. Socialization, kind and consistent upbringing, regular routine, and plenty of exercise and games appropriate for her age will be important. She has not yet fully mastered her hygiene habits, which is natural for a puppy. With a regular routine, frequent walks, and patience, she will gradually learn. Abby is looking for a home in an apartment or a family house with full indoor access. We are looking for people who understand that a puppy means not only a lot of joy, but also time, upbringing, patience, and daily care. Abby has her whole life ahead of her. She is looking for a family to grow up with, learn, explore the world, and become her beloved part. Transportation across borders is currently not possible due to ongoing veterinary procedures. VACCINATION: ongoing - expected completion 22.09.2026

Abby sa našla spolu so svojimi sestričkami Aylou a Ariou na ulici Valalická 1 v Košiciach – mestskej časti Krásna. Tri malé sestričky sa tak dostali do našej starostlivosti a teraz každá z nich čaká na svoju vlastnú rodinu. Abby je milé, veselé a zvedavé šteniatko. Rada sa hrá, objavuje svoje okolie a so záujmom sleduje všetko, čo sa okolo nej deje. Spoločnosť človeka si užíva a nechýba jej typická šteniatkovská hravosť a chuť spoznávať nové veci. Je ešte maličká a veľa sa toho len učí. Potrebuje trpezlivých ľudí, ktorí ju postupne zoznámia s bežným životom, novými miestami, ľuďmi a situáciami. Dôležitá bude socializácia, láskavá a dôsledná výchova, pravidelný režim a dostatok pohybu a hier primeraných jej veku. Hygienické návyky ešte nemá úplne zvládnuté, čo je pri šteniatku prirodzené. Pri pravidelnom režime, častom venčení a trpezlivosti sa ich bude postupne učiť. Abby si hľadá domov v byte alebo v rodinnom dome s úplným prístupom dovnútra. Hľadáme pre ňu ľudí, ktorí si uvedomujú, že šteniatko znamená nielen veľa radosti, ale aj čas, výchovu, trpezlivosť a každodennú starostlivosť. Abby má pred sebou celý život. Hľadá rodinu, po boku ktorej bude môcť vyrastať, učiť sa, spoznávať svet a stať sa jej milovanou súčasťou. Prevoz cez hranice momentálne nie je možný z dôvodu prebiehajúcich veterinárnych úkonov. OČKOVANIE: prebieha – predpokladané ukončenie 22.09. 2026

About Abby

What life with Abby looks like

Abby is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at ÚVP Košice in Slovakia.

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 Slovakia

Slovak rescue groups coordinate cross-border transport with European partners. Animals are chipped and vaccinated; sterilization is often included for adults and arranged post-adoption for puppies/kittens.
