Dávid

Mixed Breed · Male

Dávid is a good-hearted dog in body and soul and very grateful. He loves people and enjoys their attention to 110 percent. At the shelter he quickly became popular - volunteers like to play with him and he always fully enjoys human company. He is happiest when someone strokes him, cuddles him, and gives him attention. He will come to ask for a caress on his own and he is a real golden boy! He is an ideal companion for trips into nature, but he can also enjoy quiet moments of rest. He gets along without conflicts with dogs and female dogs. He has good hygiene habits and behaves politely inside. Regarding handling, it is still not completely problem-free, but compared to when he arrived at the shelter, he has made great progress. Dávid quickly notices when a person has some intention with him (for example treatment or handling), and he can get into a defensive position. He needs a patient and loving approach, which will help him gradually build more trust. David's was diagnosed with multiple spondylosis, which means that he has fusions on several vertebrae. It is a chronic, non-inflammatory condition that can cause stiffness and mild limitation of movement, especially during greater physical exertion or in cold weather. He has better and worse periods - when pain or discomfort appears, pain medication needs to be administered. However, he currently does not need any medication and his condition is stabilized. In everyday life, this diagnosis currently does not significantly interfere with him - he still enjoys walks and human company. However, in the future, it will be necessary to monitor his condition and adapt his activity or environment as needed. David, despite this, deserves a full life in a loving home where he will be understood and loved for who he is. Dávid is suitable for experienced and patient people who already have experience with dogs and tend to lead a calmer lifestyle. It is not suitable for small children or complete beginners, because he needs a sensitive approach, security, and space to build trust. He is looking for a loving family that will take him as a full member and give him enough attention and understanding. An ideal home for him is a house with full access to the ground. If you are looking for a loyal and grateful companion who will give you his devotion, when you give him time and understanding, David is the right one. For more information, or in case of interest, please contact us on phone number . In case of unavailability, please send us an SMS. If you decide to show interest in this shelter animal, it must be a responsible and well-considered decision by the whole family. Think not only about the present, but also about the future, consider all possible situations that may arise.

Dávid je dobráčik telom aj dušou a veľmi vďačný psík. Ľudí miluje a ich pozornosť si užíva na 110 %. V útulku si rýchlo získal obľubu – dobrovoľníci ho radi venčia a on si vždy naplno užíva spoločnosť človeka. Najšťastnejší je, keď ho niekto hladká, mojká a venuje mu pozornosť. Sám si príde vypýtať pohladenie a je to skutočné zlatíčko! Je ideálny parťák na výlety do prírody, no rovnako si vie užiť aj pokojné chvíle pri oddychu. So psami a fenkami vychádza nekonfliktne. Má osvojené hygienické návyky a vo vnútri sa správa slušne. Čo sa týka manipulácie, ešte to nie je úplne bezproblémové, no oproti jeho príchodu do útulku urobil veľké pokroky. Dávid si rýchlo všimne, keď má človek s ním nejaký zámer (napríklad ošetrenie či manipuláciu), a môže sa dostať do obrannej pozície. Potrebuje trpezlivý a láskavý prístup, vďaka ktorému si postupne vybuduje väčšiu dôveru. Dávidkovi bola diagnostikovaná mnohonásobná spondylopatia, čo znamená, že má zrasty na viacerých stavcoch chrbtice. Ide o chronické, nezápalové ochorenie, ktoré môže spôsobovať stuhnutosť a mierne obmedzenie pohyblivosti, najmä pri väčšej fyzickej námahe alebo v chladnom počasí. Má lepšie a horšie obdobia – keď sa objaví bolesť alebo diskomfort, je potrebné nasadiť lieky proti bolesti. Momentálne však žiadne lieky nepotrebuje a jeho stav je stabilizovaný. V bežnom živote mu táto diagnóza momentálne výraznejšie neprekáža – stále si užíva prechádzky aj spoločnosť ľudí. Do budúcna však bude potrebné jeho stav sledovať a prispôsobiť mu aktivitu či prostredie podľa potreby. Dávidko si aj napriek tomu zaslúži plnohodnotný život v láskyplnom domove, kde ho budú chápať a milovať takého, aký je. Dávid je vhodný pre skúsených a trpezlivých ľudí, ktorí už majú skúsenosti so psami a vedú skôr pokojnejší spôsob života. Nie je vhodný k malým deťom ani pre úplných začiatočníkov, pretože potrebuje citlivý prístup, istotu a priestor na budovanie dôvery. Hľadá si milujúcu rodinu, ktorá ho bude brať ako plnohodnotného člena a dopraje mu dostatok pozornosti a porozumenia. Ideálny domov je preňho domček s úplným prístupom dnu. Ak hľadáte verného a vďačného parťáka, ktorý vám dá svoju oddanosť, keď mu dáte čas a pochopenie, Dávidko je ten pravý. Pre viac informácií, alebo v prípade záujmu nás kontaktujte na tel.č. . V prípade nedostupnosti nám prosíme napíšte sms. Ak sa rozhodnete prejaviť záujem o útulkáčika, musí to byť zodpovedné a premyslené rozhodnutie celej rodiny. Myslite nie len na prítomnosť, ale aj na budúcnosť, zvážte všetky možnosti a situácie, ktoré môžu nastať.

About Dávid

What life with Dávid looks like

Dávid is a small 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Dávid, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Dávid?
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 Dávid on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Dávid 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 Dávid 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 Dávid 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 Dávid 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.
