Sturdy plastic carrier — what most shelters require for pickup.
First-week safe space. Shelter dogs settle faster with a crate.
Legally required in most EU countries for transporting dogs.
Dog-specific pheromone diffuser. Worth it for the trip home.
Worth the upgrade — rescues often have joint issues from kennels.

Hera is a small puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at PAWS Paleochora in Paleochora (Chania, Crete).
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.
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.
