How do I contact the shelter about Axel?

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 Axel on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Axel 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 Axel 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 Axel 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 Axel 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.

Axel

Mixed Breed · Male

Axel was found on Opatovská cesta in Košice. Axel is a young, active and very playful puppy full of energy. He is such a little madcap who is always ready for action. From the first moment he is friendly, contactable and enjoys the company of people and dog friends. He loves movement and anything that can be fetched - it doesn't matter if it's a ball, a stuffed toy or a stick. He loves toys and enthusiastically gets into them. He challenges dogs to play and sometimes "pokes" them until they start chasing him. He gets along well with other dogs and female dogs. He is very trainable and, with proper guidance, has the potential for dog sports, such as agility. However, he needs enough exercise and mental stimulation to properly use his energy. Handling is trouble-free. He behaves politely inside and doesn't destroy things. He has good hygiene habits with regular walks. Axel is looking for a home in an apartment or a house with full access inside. It is also suitable for a family with children, ideally for active people who will give him enough exercise, time and will work with him. With proper guidance, he will become a great and loyal buddy for everyday life.

SK·Show original

Axel sa našiel na ulici Opatovská cesta v Košiciach. Axel je mladý, aktívny a veľmi hravý psík plný energie. Je to taký malý šaľko, ktorý je stále pripravený na akciu. Od prvého momentu je priateľský, kontaktný a teší sa zo spoločnosti ľudí aj psích kamarátov. Miluje pohyb a jeho najväčšou vášňou sú loptičky. Rád aportuje, no poteší ho aj plyšák či palička. Hračky jednoducho zbožňuje a do každej hry sa púšťa s nadšením. Psov rád vyzýva k hre a niekedy do nich „vŕta“, kým sa s ním nezačnú naháňať. So psami aj fenkami vychádza bez problémov. Axel je šikovný, učenlivý a poslušný psík. Keď si na človeka zvykne a vytvorí si s ním vzťah, pekne ho vníma a na prechádzkach dokáže fungovať aj bez vodítka. Samozrejme, voľný pohyb je vhodný len na bezpečných miestach a tam, kde má človek istotu, že Axel spoľahlivo reaguje na privolanie. Pri správnom vedení má potenciál aj na psie športy, napríklad agility. Potrebuje dostatok pohybu, ale rovnako dôležité je aj zamestnanie hlavy. Je to psík, ktorý bude najspokojnejší po boku ľudí, ktorí ho zapoja do svojich aktivít a jeho energiu využijú správnym smerom. Manipulácia je bezproblémová. Pri pravidelnom venčení má hygienické návyky. Vo vnútri sa správa slušne a veci neničí. Axel si hľadá domov v byte alebo v rodinnom dome s úplným prístupom dovnútra. Vhodný je aj do rodiny s deťmi, ideálne k aktívnym ľuďom, ktorí mu doprajú dostatok pohybu, času a budú sa mu venovať. Axel je veselý, aktívny a šikovný parťák, ktorý má chuť niečo robiť, učiť sa a byť súčasťou života svojich ľudí. Teraz už potrebuje len nájsť rodinu, s ktorou to všetko bude môcť naplno využívať.

About Axel

What life with Axel looks like

Axel 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.
