Kevin (Кевін)

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

BOY got this name because, being a 1-month-old puppy, he was forgotten "at home" for an entire week. Well not forgotten, but not noticed. And not at home, but on the shed, where he was born. His brothers and sisters left on their own to be rescued, but he quietly hid. And only after a week people accidentally heard his sad whining. So he got the name Kevin. He is very nervous and when people came to choose puppies, he was hiding and no one took him. So all 7 brothers and sisters are already at home, but he is still in the kennel run. Again alone. Because he has grown up, because he does not trust new people immediately. But Kevin has a lot of positive qualities. He loves walks, fast, loves to swim and even dives. Water is his element. Also, he is very friendly towards other animals. Especially Kevin loves cats, he is very gentle with them. Perfect for a car, at the veterinarian clinic the whole staff can't praise his behavior and, surprisingly, his courage. And to people he just needs to get used to and then he is also the most comfortable cat. He is especially good, just need to get to know him. Kevin is neutered and vaccinated, has a veterinary passport.

Хлопчик отримав таке імʼя, тому що, будучи місячним цуценям, його забули «вдома» на цілий тиждень. Ну не забули, а не помітили. І не вдома, а на сірнику, де він народився. Його брати і сестри вийшли самі на порятунок, а він тихенько сховався. І лише через тиждень люди випадково почули жалісно скачування. так він і отримав імʼя Кевін. Він дуже стресову і коли приїжджали обирати цуценят, він ховався і його ніхто не забрав. Ось так всі 7 братів і сестер давно вдома, а він все ще у вольєрі. Знову сам. Бо вже виріс, бо не одразу довіряє новим людям. Але Кевін має дуже багато позитивних якостей. Він обожнює прогулянки, швидкий, обожнює плавати і навіть пірнає. Вода - його стихія. Також він дуже дружелюбний до інших тварин, Особливо Кевін обожнює- котиків, він з ними дуже ніжний. Ідеально іде в авто, у ветеринара весь персонал не може його нахвалити за вихованість і, на диво, сміливість. А до людей йому просто треба звикнути і тоді він теж найзручніший котик. Він особливо вий, просто треба з ним познайомитись. Кевін кастрований і вакцинований, має паспорт.

About Kevin (Кевін)

What life with Kevin (Кевін) looks like

Kevin (Кевін) is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Happy Paw Kyiv in Ukraine.

An young 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 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 Kevin (Кевін), answered.

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