Atos (Атос)

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Atos was brought to us from the village of Ozirne, where a real tragedy unfolded. These so-called "breeders" were engaged in breeding the elite breed of cane corso. But these people had no idea how to properly handle and raise animals. The horrific conditions of keeping and lack of care led to a critical situation: the dogs began to show cannibalism. We saved two dogs, but only Atos survived. Thanks to long and intensive rehabilitation, thanks to daily work with him, Atos changed. We helped him stop seeing other animals as prey. He has fully socialized and even chose a labrador retriever as his partner, with whom they live in the same kennel run. Unfortunately, Atos' story has another sad turn. He has serious health problems - tumors that spread throughout his body and require constant treatment and care. We understand that his chances of finding a family are low - Atos is looking for guardians.

Атос потрапив до нас із села Озірне, де розгорнулася справжня трагедія. Так звані "заводчики" займалися розведенням елітної породи кане-корсо. Але ці люди не мали жодного уявлення, як правильно поводитися з тваринами та виховувати їх. Жахливі умови утримання та відсутність догляду призвели до критичної ситуації: собаки почали проявляти канібалізм. Ми врятували двох собак, але вижив лише Атос. Завдяки довгій та інтенсивній реабілітації, завдяки щоденній роботі з ним, Атос змінився. Ми допомогли йому перестати сприймати інших тварин як здобич. Він повністю соціалізувався і навіть обрав собі подружку-лабрадорку, з якою вони живуть в одному вольєрі. На жаль, історія Атоса має ще один сумний поворот. У нього серйозні проблеми зі здоров'ям — пухлини, які розповсюджуються по всьому тілу і потребують постійного лікування та догляду. Ми розуміємо, що шансів попасти в сім'ю в нього мало — Атос шукає опікунів та опікунок. 🙏

About Atos (Атос)

What life with Atos (Атос) looks like

Atos (Атос) is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Happy Paw Kyiv Oblast in Ukraine.

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 Ukraine

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 Atos (Атос), answered.

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