Grey

Mixed Breed · Male

Grey came to us along with his mother Georgina and siblings from very unsuitable conditions. From the beginning, he is a sensitive and shy puppy. Grey is a young dog with a shy nature like his mother. Before contact, he tends to avoid or run away, but he is not aggressive during handling. He can be petted, although out of fear, he may urinate. He is currently stressed all the time outside, his tail is often tucked in, but he can handle walks even with strangers, although he does not yet enjoy them. Despite his caution, Grey is a playful, young and curious dog. When he feels safer, his interest in the surroundings and desire to explore new things will show. With a calm and patient approach, he can make small but important progress. He gets along with dogs and female dogs according to his preferences. He tries to manage his hygiene habits, but since walks are still stressful for him, it is not yet completely reliable. He handles manipulation without conflicts. Grey is looking for a home with patient and experienced people who have experience with sensitive dogs and are ready to work with him at his own pace. A balanced dog companion would be a great help for him, from whom he could learn and gain confidence. An ideal home for him would be a house with a garden with full access inside. It is not suitable for a household with small children.

Grey k nám prišiel spolu so svojou mamou Georginou a súrodencami z veľmi nevhodných podmienok. Od začiatku je to citlivý a plachý psík. Grey je mladý psík s plachou povahou po mame. Pred dotykom má tendenciu uhnúť alebo odísť, no pri manipulácii nie je agresívny. Nechá sa pohladkať, hoci zo strachu sa mu môže stať, že sa pociká. Vonku je zatiaľ celý čas v strese, chvostík má často stiahnutý, no zvláda prechádzky aj s cudzími ľuďmi, aj keď si ich ešte neužíva. Popri svojej opatrnosti je Grey hravý, mladý a zvedavý psík. Keď sa cíti bezpečnejšie, prejaví sa jeho záujem o okolie a chuť objavovať nové veci. Pri pokojnom a trpezlivom prístupe dokáže robiť malé, ale dôležité pokroky. So psami a fenkami vychádza podľa sympatií. Hygienické návyky sa snaží zvládať, no keďže sú prechádzky preňho ešte stresujúce, zatiaľ to nie je úplne spoľahlivé. Manipuláciu zvláda bez konfliktov. Grey hľadá domov u trpezlivých a skúsených ľudí, ktorí majú skúsenosti s citlivými psami a sú pripravení pracovať s ním vlastným tempom. Veľkou pomocou v domove by preňho bol vyrovnaný psí kamarát, od ktorého by sa mohol učiť a nabrať istotu. Ideálny by pre neho bol dom so záhradou s úplným prístupom dovnútra. Nie je vhodný do domácnosti s malými deťmi.

About Grey

What life with Grey looks like

Grey 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Grey, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Grey?
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 Grey on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Grey 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 Grey 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 Grey 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 Grey 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.
