Adopt Danell

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

There are days that are hard to forget even after time! One of them was the day we found the dog, condemned to death if no one had found him. The chain around the helpless dog's neck, left in the forest without help, is proof... that not everyone who walks on two legs is a human. Not exactly a collar, but several layers of twine that were supposed to resemble one. We assume he had it tied since puppyhood and it caused constant pain every time the dog moved. Danell had absolutely no muscle mass, and under the destroyed remaining layer of fur was just bone and skin. This approximately one-year-old dog is truly a giant who should definitely weigh at least 40 kg, but he was as light as a little dog - the giant got his new name Danell which means: inner strength, justice, quiet determination. The name Danell perfectly describes him on the entire difficult journey of rescue! Because Danell is a one-year-old dog, he does not behave like an adult puppy. The traumas he endured for a long time left certain traces. Not only on the fur and skin, but also on his psyche. For Danellk, we are looking for a loving family that will approach him gently and responsibly. They will show him that this world can be something completely different than cruelty, which he has endured for a long time.

Sú dni, na ktoré je aj po čase ťažko zabudnúť ! A jedným z nich bol aj n á l e z psíka o d s u d e n é h o n a s m r ť pokiaľ by ho nik n e n a š i e l. Reťaz na krku bezmocného psa ponechaného v lese bez p o m o c i je dôkazom … že nie každý kto kráča po dvoch, je človek. Teda nie tak celkom reťaz na krku, ale niekoľko násobné vrstvy špagátu, ktoré mali pripomínať obojok. Predpokladáme, že tie mal uviazané ešte od čias šteniatka a spôsobovali mu ustavičnú bolesť … len čo sa pes pohol. Danell nemal vôbec, ale že vôbec žiadnu svalovú hmotu a pod zničenou ostavajúcou vrstvou srsti bola len samá k o s ť a k o ž a Tento odhadom ročný pes je ozaj obrík, ktorý by mal mať istotne minimálne 40 kg, ale bol ľahký ako p i e r k o Psíček – obríček dostal svoje nové meno Danell čo znamená : vnútorná sila, spravodlivosť, tichá odhodlanosť. Meno Danell ho dokonale vystihuje na spoločnej celej ceste náročnej záchrany ! Vzhľadom k tomu, že je Danell ročný psík, nespráva sa ako odrastené šteniatko. Traumy, ktoré dlhodobo zažíval v ňom zanechali určité stopy. A to nie len na srsti a koži, ale aj na psychike. Pre Danellka hľadáme milujúcu rodinku, ktorá k nemu bude pristupovať jemne a zodpovedne. Ukáže mu, že tento svet môže byť aj o niečom úplne inom ako o krutosti, ktorú dlhodobo zažíval. Danella je možné podporiť aj finančne, na veterinárne úkony a stravu.

About Danell

What life with Danell looks like

Danell is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Malá farma in Slovakia.

An young 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Danell, answered.

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