How do I contact the shelter about Eliáš?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Útulek Zlín-Vršava handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Eliáš on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Eliáš if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Útulek Zlín-Vršava 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 Eliáš 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 Eliáš 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 Útulek Zlín-Vršava early rather than rehoming privately; they know Eliáš 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 (CS). 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.

Adopt Eliáš

Labrador Retriever · Male · Senior · 13 years

AUTUMN 2024 – Eliáš gets monthly Librel applied to help him, already after the walk it was noticeable that his joints hurt... After all, he is an 11-year-old big dog... ELIÁŠ.....has been waiting at the shelter for 3 years. He is 11 years old, he is a mixed breed of a German shepherd....the shelter is his home and he is waiting for his favorite volunteers to go on his usual walk. But we don't want him to spend his whole life at the shelter. After all, daily contact and joy with his owner would still be very much wished for him. A small garden where he can walk around and bark would be enough. Then he will allow himself to be petted by "his" owner and lie down on "his" garden. He can still manage walks, but his walking after the walk is already slow and calm. We think that in his old age he could handle a dog companion......Please, anyone who has the possibility to provide Eliáš a home for several months, maybe even a year, consider Eliáš. ……………………………………………………………………………………………………….. Eliáš is a mixed breed German shepherd, born in 2013. We are looking for an owner for him, who ideally lives in a house with a garden, where Eliáš can run around and surely knows how to guard the garden. He likes the presence of people, but since his upbringing was neglected, it is necessary for his new master to be able to set limits for him. Then he becomes a friendly and loyal dog. He still has strength and temperament on walks.

podzim 2024 – Eliáškovi měsíčně aplikujeme Librelu, abychom mu ulevili, po námaze bylo již patrné, že ho bolí klouby …. Přeci jen je to 11letý velký pes… ELIÁŠ.....na útulku čeká 3 roky Je mu jedenáct let, je to kříženec německého ovčáka,....útulek bere jako svůj domov a čeká na své oblíbené dobrovolníky, aby s nimi vyrazil na obvyklou procházku. Nechceme ale, aby dožil v útulku. Přeci jen dennodenní kontakt a radost se svým pánem bychom mu ještě moooc přáli. Stačila by mu zahrádka, kde se projde a zaštěká. Pak se nechá pohladit od "svého" pána a vyvalí se na "své" zahradě. Procházky ještě zvládá, ale jeho chůze je po námaze již pomalá a poklidná. Myslíme si, že na stáří by zvládl i psího parťáka......Prosím, kdo má možnost poskytnout Eliášovi domov na několik měsíců, možná i let, zapřemýšlejte nad Eliášem. ……………………………………………………………………………………………………….. Eliáš je křížence německého ovčáka,narozený 2013. Hledáme mu pána, který by v ideálním případě žil v domě se zahradou, kde by se Eliáš mohl proběhnout a určitě by zahradu uměl ještě ohlídat. Má rád přítomnost člověka, ale jelikož u něho byla zanedbána výchova, je potřeba, aby mu jeho nový páneček dokázal stanovit hranice. Pak z něho je kamarádský a věrný pes. Na vycházce má ještě sílu a temperament.

About Eliáš

What life with Eliáš looks like

Eliáš is a large senior labrador retriever dog waiting at Útulek Zlín-Vršava in Zlín-Zlín 12.

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 Czech Republic

Czech shelters (útulky) include sterilization, vaccinations, and microchip ID. The adopter signs a written contract (smlouva) — the shelter may follow up to verify wellbeing.
