Dana (Дана)

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 12 years

This dog is 9 years old. Unfortunately, the previous owners betrayed her, tied her to the backyard of an animal shelter on a leash and ran away. Dana is a very smart, calm and composed dog, knows commands and enjoys walking on a leash. The veterinarian prescribed to give the dog Simpariс Duo every month, as there are signs that there are heartworms in the heart. It is not possible to anesthesia her, because now the heart may not withstand it. Since after the last heat she felt bad, on day 30 of the heat, an ultrasound should be done, to check for pyometra of the uterus. If it is found, they will try to treat it with medication, antibiotics, surgical intervention will only be in the most critical case. For now, there is no treatment, just observation. The tumor is not large, so according to the doctor's words, if she is now put under anesthesia, it can shorten her life. Therefore, after the next ultrasound, the picture will be clearer. Examining Dana in the clinic cost 3500 hryvnias. Also, at some point, she will need either treatment with drugs, or surgery.

Дана 9 років. Нажаль попередні власники зрадили її, прив'язали до подвір'я притулку на ціпку і втекли. Дана дуже розумна, сокійна та виважена собака, знає команди і з задоволенням гуляє на повідку. Лікар призначив кожного місяця давати собаці Симпаріку тріо, так як є ознаки того, що в серці є дирофілярії. Наркоз їй робити не можна, бо зараз серце може не витримати. Так як після минулої тічки вона себе почувала погано, на 30 день тічки треба зробити УЗД, на наявність піометри матки. Якщо вона виявиться, її будуть пробувати лікувати медикаментозно, антибіотиками, хірургічне втручання буде лише в найкритичнішому випадку. Поки що лікування ніякого, просто спостерігаємо. Пухлина не велика, тому за словами лікаря, якщо її зараз ввести в наркоз - можна вкоротити віку. Тому після наступного УЗД буде ясніша картина. Обстеження Дани у клініці коштувало 3500 гривень. А також череез певний час їй необхідне буде або лікування ліками, або операція.

About Dana (Дана)

What life with Dana (Дана) looks like

Dana (Дана) is a large senior mixed breed dog waiting at Happy Paw Kirovohrad in Ukraine.

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 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 Dana (Дана), answered.

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