Foivos (Φοιβος)

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Phoebus is a wonderful puppy around 7 months old, searching for a family with patience, understanding, and lots of love. He is fully vaccinated and dewormed and has been hosted by a member of our shelter for almost 2 months. Unfortunately, during the first months of his life, he was isolated without the necessary socialization, resulting in him not being properly socialized. So, he is a very shy and sensitive creature, needing time to feel safe, trust, and be loved. However, his eyes tell the truth… He wants to be loved and to love. He needs a home that will offer him peace, stability, and patience, so step by step he can overcome his fears. ✔️ Does well with other dogs ✔️ Not at all aggressive ✔️ Although scared, he accepts petting (as seen in the video, even though it was our first interaction) We are looking for people who will look beyond his fear and give Phoebus the opportunity he deserves: to become a family member and for the first time understand what safety and love mean. 📩 Anyone truly interested in this wonderful pup, please contact us. He can be transported to Athens and Thessaloniki if a suitable family is found.

Ο Φοίβος είναι ένα υπέροχο κουτάβι περίπου 7 μηνών, που αναζητά μια οικογένεια με υπομονή, κατανόηση και πολλή αγάπη. Είναι πλήρως εμβολιασμένος και αποπαρασιτωμένος και εδώ και σχεδόν 2 μήνες φιλοξενείται από μέλος του συλλόγου μας. Δυστυχώς, τους πρώτους μήνες της ζωής του ζούσε απομονωμένος, χωρίς τα απαραίτητα ερεθίσματα, με αποτέλεσμα να μην έχει κοινωνικοποιηθεί σωστά. Έτσι, είναι ένα πολύ διστακτικό και ευαίσθητο πλάσμα, που χρειάζεται χρόνο για να νιώσει ασφάλεια, να εμπιστευθεί και να αφεθεί. Τα μάτια του όμως λένε την αλήθεια… Θέλει πολύ να αγαπηθεί και να αγαπήσει. Χρειάζεται ένα σπίτι που θα του προσφέρει ηρεμία, σταθερότητα και υπομονή, ώστε βήμα-βήμα να μπορέσει να ξεπεράσει τους φόβους του. ✔️ Τα πάει πολύ καλά με άλλα σκυλιά ✔️ Δεν είναι καθόλου επιθετικός ✔️ Αν και φοβισμένος, δέχεται τα χάδια (όπως φαίνεται και στο βίντεο, παρότι ήταν η πρώτη μας επαφή) Αναζητούμε ανθρώπους που θα δουν πέρα από τον φόβο του και θα δώσουν στον Φοίβο την ευκαιρία που του αξίζει: να γίνει μέλος μιας οικογένειας και να γνωρίσει για πρώτη φορά τι σημαίνει ασφάλεια και αγάπη. 📩 Όποιος ενδιαφέρεται πραγματικά για αυτόν τον υπέροχο κουταβο, παρακαλούμε να επικοινωνήσει μαζί μας. Μπορεί να μεταφερθεί σε Αθήνα και Θεσσαλονίκη αν βρεθεί η κατάλληλη οικογένεια.

About Foivos (Φοιβος)

What life with Foivos (Φοιβος) looks like

Foivos (Φοιβος) is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Dogs Voice in Athens.

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 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 Foivos (Φοιβος), answered.

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