How do I contact the shelter about Fred?

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

Can I adopt Fred if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Mestský útulok Poprad 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 Fred 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 Fred 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 Mestský útulok Poprad early rather than rehoming privately; they know Fred 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.

Adopt Fred

Male · Puppy · 5 months

We rescued Fred and his three siblings from drowning. The puppies were the result of an irresponsible owner who didn't watch his female dog and then wanted to drown the puppies. No wonder we promote and recommend sterilization. The puppies were lucky, they came to us and escaped death. They are currently in temporary foster care and are waiting for loving homes. Fred is located in DO in Poprad. Fred is a smart and affectionate puppy who most likes to fall asleep in a person's arms. He enjoys playing, likes to bark, and plays with other dogs. He is a typical puppy who loves exploring the world and experiencing adventures. At his age, he is very obedient and sensitive. He has almost mastered hygiene, listens to commands. He is about 5 months old and will be medium-sized as an adult. He is suitable especially for an apartment or a house with year-round access to a yard. He is a perfect puppy who longs for a loving home. He is growing up in temporary foster care and believes that happiness will also smile upon him.

About Fred

What life with Fred looks like

Fred is a medium-sized puppy/kitten dog waiting at Mestský útulok Poprad in Poprad.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇸🇰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.
