How do I contact the shelter about Everestas?

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

Can I adopt Everestas if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Pet Rescue Finland 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 Everestas 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 Everestas 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 Pet Rescue Finland early rather than rehoming privately; they know Everestas 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 (FI). 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.

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

• Need a quiet environment: Yes • Can live in the city: No • Get along with families with children: Unknown • Can get along with other dogs: Yes • Have lived with cats: Not known • I have the following special characteristics regarding character or breed traits: I am a crossbreed of Owczarek Podhalanski. I will only be rehomed to an experienced home • Things to note regarding my health are: None • The following health measures have been done for me: Dental care • Have lived in home-based foster care: No • Have been in shelter kennel for more than 2 years: No • Know how to walk on a leash: Yes • (Other): My name reflects me well, I am brave and big like Mount Everest. I lived with my siblings at a woman's house, who raised Owczarek Podhalanski crosses, with the intention of selling them and making a profit. Authorities found out about it and conducted an inspection at our home. They found several deficiencies and neglect, but the woman fixed all the observed problems. However, the authorities managed to persuade her to surrender six puppies to the shelter kennel, as she had not been able to sell them and the dogs were already half a year old. Since then, I have been living at Mazas Draugasin shelter kennel with my siblings. Some have already been rehomed to Lithuania and now I would like to find my own home. I am a big dog and may look like a serious type, but I still feel like a small chick. I am very attached to people, love attention, pets, and cuddles. I am a guard in my area. I bark, because in my opinion I need to protect my family. When I see my beloved human, I get excited, I really love people.

• Tarvitsen rauhallisen ympäristön: Kyllä • Voin asua kaupungissa: En • Sovin lapsiperheeseen: Ei tietoa • Tulen toimeen muiden koirien kanssa : Kyllä • Olen asunut kissojen kanssa: Ei tiedossa • Minulla on seuraavia erityispiirteitä luonteen tai rotuominaisuuksien osalta: Olen risteytys Owczarek podhalanski rodusta. Minut luovutetaan vain kokeneeseen kotiin • Huomioitavia asioita terveyteni osalta ovat: Ei • Minulle on tehty seuraavia terveystoimenpiteitä: Hammashoito • Olen asunut kotioloissa kotihoidossa: Ei • Olen ollut tarhalla yli 2 vuotta: Ei • Osaan kulkea hihnassa: Kyllä • (Muuta:) – Nimeni kuvastaa minua hyvin, olen uljas ja iso kuin Mount Everest. Asuin sisaruksieni kanssa naisen luona, joka kasvatti Owczarek podhalanski -sekoituksia, tarkoituksenaan myydä ne ja saada voittoa. Viranomaiset saivat vihiä asiasta ja tekivät tarkastuksen kotiimme. He löysivät useita puutteita ja laiminlyöntejä, mutta nainen korjasi kaikki havaitut virheet. Viranomaiset onnistuivat kuitenkin taivuttelemaan hänet luovuttamaan kuusi pennuista tarhalle, koska hän ei ollut saanut niitä myytyä ja koirat olivat jo puolivuotiaita. Siitä lähtien olen asunut Mazas Draugasin tarhalla sisarusteni kanssa. Osa on jo kotiutunut Liettuaan ja nyt olisi toiveissa löytää minulle oma koti. Olen iso koira ja saatan näyttää vakavalta tyypiltä, mutta tunnen itseni silti pieneksi pennuksi. Olen hyvin kiintynyt ihmisiin, rakastan huomiota, rapsuttelua ja halailua. Olen vartija alueellani. Haukun, koska mielestäni minun on suojeltava perhettäni. Kun näen rakkaan ihmiseni, sekoan onnesta, rakastan ihmisiä todella paljon.

About Everestas

What life with Everestas looks like

Everestas is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Pet Rescue Finland in Helsinki.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇫🇮Adopting from Finland

Finnish shelters require a home visit and an adoption contract. Animals are vetted; the EU pet passport covers cross-border travel within the bloc.
