How do I contact the shelter about Grétka?

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

Can I adopt Grétka if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ÚVP Košice 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 Grétka 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 Grétka 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 ÚVP Košice early rather than rehoming privately; they know Grétka 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.

Grétka

Mixed Breed · Female

Grétka was found on Podjavorinskej street in Košice, the city district of Luník IX. The beginning of her life was probably not easy, but despite that, she has a chance for a completely different future than she had so far. Grétka is a typical puppy - active, playful and curious. Everything around her interests her, she likes to discover new things and has a desire to explore the world. She is full of energy and natural joy of life, which is completely typical for puppies at this age. Like any young puppy, she needs a regular routine, enough exercise appropriate for her age, but most importantly, patient and loving guidance. Training, socialization and time spent on common activities will be key for her further development. She does not yet have hygiene habits, but she will quickly learn them with proper and consistent guidance. With proper guidance and in a stable home, she will grow into a balanced female dog, who will be part of the normal life of her family. Everything that happens to her will depend on the approach and time that her new home dedicates to her. Grétka is looking for a home in an apartment or a house with complete access inside. She is suitable for people who realize that a puppy means a commitment, upbringing and responsibility for many years.

Grétka sa našla na ulici Podjavorinskej v Košiciach, mestská časť Luník IX. Začiatok jej života asi nebol jednoduchý, no aj napriek tomu má šancu na úplne inú budúcnosť, akú mala doteraz. Grétka je typické šteniatko – aktívna, hravá a zvedavá. Zaujíma ju všetko okolo seba, rada objavuje nové veci a má chuť spoznávať svet. Je plná energie a prirodzenej radosti zo života, ktorá je pre šteniatka v tomto veku úplne typická. Ako každé mladé šteniatko potrebuje pravidelný režim, dostatok pohybu primeraného veku, ale najmä trpezlivé a láskavé vedenie. Výchova, socializácia a čas venovaný spoločným aktivitám budú kľúčové pre jej ďalší vývoj. Hygienické návyky ešte nemá, no pri správnom a dôslednom vedení sa ich rýchlo naučí. Pri správnom vedení a v stabilnom domove z nej vyrastie vyrovnaná fenočka, ktorá bude súčasťou bežného života svojej rodiny. Všetko, čím sa stane, bude závisieť od prístupu a času, ktorý jej nový domov venuje. Grétka hľadá domov v byte alebo v dome s úplným prístupom dovnútra. Je vhodná pre ľudí, ktorí si uvedomujú, že šteniatko znamená záväzok, výchovu a zodpovednosť na dlhé roky.

About Grétka

What life with Grétka looks like

Grétka is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at ÚVP Košice 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.
