How do I contact the shelter about Emil?

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 Emil on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Emil 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 Emil 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 Emil 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 Emil 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.

Emil

Mixed Breed · Male

EMIL was thrown away in the village of Kechnec. The poor little one joined a dog in the settlement... one day, the lady saw how Emil was taken and locked in a container! She immediately took him and drove him to the veterinary clinic, from where we took him. During the veterinary examination, several fly bites were found, especially on the ears, old scars on the head, limbs, body... How much evil and misfortune must a little dog go through? Emil has never experienced a home, love or knowing that someone cares about him. One person threw him on the road and another locked him in a container! It is very sad! Currently, Emil is in our care and we firmly believe that all the bad things in his life have ended and now only a perfect home awaits him, where nothing will be missing, he will be loved and happy. The best dogs had the hardest fate and Emil is proof of that. Perfect dog! He is friendly and kind to people, regardless of anyone. An active and playful dog who loves fetching, water, scratching and human attention. Emil is an active dog and in order to be happy and satisfied, he needs enough exercise. But he can also adapt and when it's time to rest, he nicely rests in his bed. He will love trips in nature, swimming in streams and playing around with his family. He is sensible and cheerful, enjoys life to the fullest and whoever adopts him will never regret it. So far, he does not get along with other dogs (with us) and gets along well with female dogs. Handling is trouble-free. He behaves politely during the day, doesn't destroy things and has good hygiene habits.

Emila niekto vyhodil v obci Kechnec. Chudáčik sa pripojil k psíkom v osade…v jeden deň, pani videla, ako Emila zobrali a zavreli do kontajnera! Hneď ho zobrala a odviezla na veterinárnu kliniku, odkiaľ sme si ho prevzali. Pri veterinárnej prehliadke boli zistené viaceré lézie od múch, najmä na uškách, staré jazvy na hlave, končatinách, trupe… Koľko zla a nešťastia musí jeden psík prežiť? Emil nikdy nezažil domov, lásku a to, že niekomu na ňom záleží. Jeden človek ho vyhodil na cestu a druhý ho zavrel do kontajnera! Je to veľmi smutné! V súčasnosti je Emilko v našej starostlivosti a my pevne veríme, že to všetko zlé v jeho živote skončilo a už ho čaká len perfektný domov, kde mu nebude nič chýbať, bude milovaný a šťastný. Najlepšie psíky mali najťažší osud a Emil je toho dôkazom. Perfektný pes! K ľuďom je milý a priateľský, ku všetkým bez rozdielu. Aktívny a hravý psík, ktorý miluje aportovanie, vodu, škrabkanie a ľudskú pozornosť. Emilko je aktívny psík a aby bol spokojný a šťastný, potrebuje dostatok pohybu. Ale vie sa aj prispôsobiť a keď je čas oddychu, pekne odpočíva v peliešku. Bude milovať výlety v prírode, kúpanie v potokoch a šantenie so svojou rodinou. Je rozumný a veselý, užíva si život plnými dúškami a kto si ho adoptuje, to nikdy neoľutuje. So psami zatiaľ (u nás) nevychádza a s fenkami vychádza bez problémov. Manipulácia je bezproblémová. Dnu sa správa slušne, veci neničí a má hygienické návyky.

About Emil

What life with Emil looks like

Emil is a 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.
