Adopt Gamma

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

Gamma is the mother of our P-puppies. She is extremely shy and it took an unbelievable THREE YEARS!!! to catch her. Unfortunately, our colleagues could not get her to move even after a few months, so we moved her to us. It will be a long process, she still does not come out of the shed. Once it gets warmer, we will take her shed, so she can watch the world around her and face her fear. For now, she is not suitable for adoption.

Gamma je matka našich P-šteniatok. Je neskutočne plachá a podarilo sa ju odchytiť až po neuveriteľných TROCH ROKOCH!!! Žiaľ, našim kolegyniam sa ani za niekoľko mesiacov nepodarilo s ňou "pohnúť", a tak sme ju previezli k nám. Bude to beh na dlhé trate, zatiaľ nevylieza z búdy. Až sa bude dať, až bude teplejšie, vezmeme jej búdu, aby mohla pozorovať svet okolo a postavila sa svojmu strachu. Zatiaľ nie je vhodná na adopciu.

About Gamma

What life with Gamma looks like

Gamma is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at OZ Záchranný koráb 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Gamma, answered.

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