ČIUČIS

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 13 years

A most painful situation occurs when a senior, 13 years old, loses its human and instead of familiar home ends up in a shelter. Čiučis is a 3 kg Yorkshire Terrier mix, chipped, 13 years old and blind. He was found in Pakruojis, Saulėtekio street. We tried to find out his history and it turned out that the owner had already died. And the most painful thing is that among the relatives there was no one who could properly take care of the little old dog. We understand that there are various circumstances in life and not always relatives can take responsibility for the remaining animal. But still it is very painful to look at such a little one and think that after the owner's death he had no one left to stay with. Therefore, we are now looking for new homes for Čiučis.

Labiausiai skauda tada, kai senjoras, sulaukęs 13 metų, netenka savo žmogaus ir vietoje pažįstamų namų atsiduria prieglaudoje. Čiučis – vos 3 kg sveriantis jorkšyro terjero mišrūnas, čipuotas, 13 metų amžiaus ir aklas. Jis buvo rastas Pakruojyje, Saulėtekio gatvėje. Bandėme išsiaiškinti jo istoriją ir paaiškėjo, kad šeimininkas jau miręs. O skaudžiausia tai, kad tarp artimųjų neatsirado žmogaus, kuris galėtų tinkamai pasirūpinti šuo mažyčiu senjoru. Mes suprantame, kad gyvenime būna įvairių aplinkybių ir ne visada artimieji gali prisiimti atsakomybę už likusį gyvūną. Bet vis tiek labai skaudu žiūrėti į tokį mažylį ir galvoti, kad po šeimininko mirties jam neliko žmogaus, pas kurį galėtų likti. Todėl dabar mes ieškome Čiučiui naujų namų.

About ČIUČIS

What life with ČIUČIS looks like

ČIUČIS is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Šiaulių Letenėlė in Lithuania.

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 Lithuania

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 ČIUČIS, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about ČIUČIS?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Šiaulių Letenėlė handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw ČIUČIS on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt ČIUČIS if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Šiaulių Letenėlė 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is ČIUČIS 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 ČIUČIS 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 Šiaulių Letenėlė early rather than rehoming privately; they know ČIUČIS 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 (LT). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
