Flipper

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Flipper is looking for a new home! Flipper was abandoned by one community near a lake, along with her friend (who already has a home), right in the middle of winter. Flipper is a cheerful little girl, but she has one minor issue—she has a single opening for both urination and defecation. Currently, she’s on a special diet, and everything is perfectly fine; thus, she can live without any restrictions. She’s a happy, hyperactive bundle of energy who gets along wonderfully with everyone—whether it’s other dogs, people of all ages, or even children. But beware! With her adorable bark, Flipper will also “keep an eye on” things for you. She’s looking for an active family who’ll keep her busy with walks, playing with toys, and lots of cuddles. A home with access to the outdoors would be ideal.

Flipper hľadá nový domov! Flipper bola vyhodená za jednou obcou pri jazere aj so svojou kamoškou (ktorá už domov má) uprostred zimy. Flipper je veselé malé dievčatko, ktoré ale má jeden nedostatok - má klen jeden vylučovací otvor aj na cikanie aj na kakanie. Aktuálne papá špeciálnu stravu a všetko je v najlepšom poriadku, čiže dokáže žiť bez akýchkoľvek obmedzení. Je to veselá, hyperaktívna kopa, s každým kamarátka, či so psami, so všetkými ľuďmi, aj s deťmi. Ale pozor! Flipper vám svojím rozkošným štekotom aj "postráži". Hľadá si aktívnu rodinu, kde jej vybijú baterky, prechádzkami, hraním s hračkami a maznaním. Vhodná dnu, s prístupom von.

About Flipper

What life with Flipper looks like

Flipper is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at OZ Šťastné Labky Fiľakovo in Slovakia.

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.

🇸🇰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 Flipper, answered.

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