Denver

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Update: 07.11.2025: It’s been a while since we last posted about him, back when he was just a puppy. Exactly 361 days later, he’s all grown up into a stunning beauty. What hasn’t changed is his fear- his fear of people, fear of new surroundings. That’s also the reason why he was brought back after being adopted. Unfortunately, Denver is once again looking for someone who can dedicate time, training and truly see him and the potential he has. We can only imagine what he went through as a puppy. He was found together with his siblings- all of them skinny, terrified and uncertain of the world. Denver is cautious, he watches from a distance. But once you get past that shell, you’ll find a sensitive, gentle soul who’s quietly searching for someone with whom he can feel safe. In the past weeks he’s getting consistent training. He’s slowly starting to open up- he now lets people he trusts touch him and sometimes, when he thinks no one’s watching, he even starts to play. Finding the perfect home for him may be a challenge, but we haven’t given up. What Denver needs is a calm, rural home, without small children or sudden changes. He needs someone who has patience and understanding. A place where he can overcome is fear, step by step. No Caption No Caption No Caption 25.1.2025: Isn't our Denver a handsome buddy? His story: Are you ready for some puppy love? These five cuties are our latest addition, and they’ve already stolen our hearts! Meet the money heist gang: DENVER (boy), RIO (boy), PALERMO (boy), TOKYO (girl) and NAIROBI (girl). Almost a month after being abandoned, they‘ve learned to love and trust people again. They love their warm blankets (especially now that it’s getting colder), to play and to cuddle. Let’s make sure Denver, Rio, Palermo, Tokyo and Nairobi don’t grow up in the shelter! The first winter is always tough for these little ones, so maybe they can spend it in the warmth of a loving home?! Give one of these beautiful bully mixes a chance – they deserve it Be a part of the project. Adopt one of these little angels today! The Souda Shelter Project

About Denver

What life with Denver looks like

Denver is a small young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Souda Shelter in Chania.

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.

Note from the shelter: Severe fear and anxiety issues, requires patient rehabilitation

🇬🇷Adopting from Greece

Greek shelters often partner with Northern European rescue groups for placements. Animals are sterilized, vaccinated, and chipped before adoption. Fees vary widely depending on whether the shelter is municipal or NGO-run.

Frequently asked

Adopting Denver, answered.

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