Adopt ANAIS

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 9 years

Anaïs is a shy little goddess in a dog’s body, and what a perfectly fitting body it is: fluffy, round, and irresistibly cheeky. When she’s happy, she doesn’t just wag her tail, her whole body joins in, moving with a playful charm and a touch of sass. She does those adorable wiggly moves, paired with a matching smile, but also with a hint of suspicion in her eyes, as if to say: “I’m not sure yet if you deserve to see my joyful side… but alright, I’ll give you a little taste. Just don’t get too comfortable, I might start playing hard to get once you relax.” She has been with us at the shelter for quite some time now, and even though other dogs with far more complex quirks have long been adopted, our girl has somehow been overlooked. And honestly, we can’t understand how. Anaïs is a special kind of dog. When she gets to know you, she truly adores you, and it shows. When she doesn’t know you yet, she plays a little hard to get at first, but she will still cooperate, because deep down she knows you’ll meet her needs, like taking her out for a walk. During walks, she keeps turning back to look at you, as if checking whether she’s doing everything right. And when you offer her a kind word, she lights up, gaining confidence and continuing with excitement. When you meet this unique personality in person, with that one of a kind smile, you’ll need to be a little patient at first and give her the space and time she needs. It may take her a while to open up, but when she does, you’ll share something truly special, a bond filled with playful little moments and so much love.

About ANAIS

What life with ANAIS looks like

ANAIS is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Save a Greek Stray in Metsovo.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇬🇷Adopting from Greece

Greek shelters often partner with Northern European rescue groups for placements. Animals are sterilized, vaccinated, and chipped before adoption. Fees vary widely depending on whether the shelter is municipal or NGO-run.

Frequently asked

Adopting ANAIS, answered.

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