Irpin (Ірпінь)

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Hello everyone! My name is Irpin, but I'm not from Irpin, surprise) Actually, I'm from Kherson, and once I was a pet dog. But fate had it that my people left the occupied territory. They say they just got into the car and drove away. I ran after them for several kilometers until I collapsed from exhaustion. That's when volunteers picked me up by the road and took me to Kyiv to an animal shelter. And here, I even found a family. I finally thought I would be happy again. But one day they found me in the forest near the animal shelter and brought me back. Of course, I was happy to see my old friends again, but I still don't know why it happened, because no one ever looked for me. I'm very polite and a good boy, trained to live in an apartment and very well-mannered. And to my family I am ready to give a lot of love that I keep in my heart. Just notice me and take me home. I really want to be happy!

Привіт всім! Мене звати Ірпінь, але я не з Ірпеня, сюрприз) Насправді, я з Херсона, і колись я був домашнім собакою. Але доля склалася так, що мої люди виїхали з окупованої території. Кажуть, що вони просто сіли в машину і поїхали. Я біг слідом за ними кілька кілометрів, поки не впав знесилений. Саме тоді мене біля траси підібрали волонтери і забрали до Києва в притулок. І тут для мене навіть знайшлась родина. Я, нарешті, думав, що знову зможу бути щасливим. Але одного дня мене знайшли в лісі поблизу притулку і привели назад. Звісно, я був радий знову побачити старих друзів, проте, досі не знаю, чому так сталось, бо мене так ніхто і не шукав. Я дуже чемний і хороший хлопчик, привчений до життя в квартирі і дуже вихований. І своїй родині я готовий подарувати море любові, яку бережу в своєму серці. Просто помітьте мене і заберіть до себе додому. Я дуже хочу стати щасливим!

About Irpin (Ірпінь)

What life with Irpin (Ірпінь) looks like

Irpin (Ірпінь) is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Happy Paw Kyiv in Ukraine.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇺🇦Adopting from Ukraine

The shelter typically completes the animal's vaccinations, microchipping, and pet passport before adoption. Specific fees and process details vary by shelter and country — confirm directly via the contact details in the sidebar.

Frequently asked

Adopting Irpin (Ірпінь), answered.

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