Kit

Unknown · Adult · 4 years

Kit is one of the dogs we are currently looking after on the steeers with the help of dedicated volunteers in the area where he lives. Kit is a beautiful, big male Greek Shepherd Mix who hasn’t had the best of starts in life. He is still very wary of men because of this. He lives in a safe outside space, and has a hut to seek shelter, but he is scared of thunder and lightning. Kit would so like to find his forever home as he gets sad and miserable when the weather is horrible. Kit will make a wonderful companion for someone but still needs a bit of training as he has spent all of his life on the streets. Kit can be a bit jealous and have food envy so needs someone who can handle this kind of behaviour, which is very correctable with the right training. We know Kit has had to fight for food, safety and affection from the early beginning of his life (he is now about 2.5 years old) and we think as soon as he knows that there will never be a lack of anything in his life anymore, he will let go of his little traits anyway. Kit currently lives with his 2 best friends Lisa and Emil and generally gets on well with other dogs. He loves his walks sith volunteers who look after him and he loves to play with his pack or spend lazy mornings in the sunshine. He is quick to learn and very eager to please and he gets very upset and sad when we have to tell him off for a little misstep. He will do everything to make it right again. He is a lovely boy who really deserves to find his family soon!

About Kit

What life with Kit looks like

Kit is a large adult dog waiting at Φιλοζωική Ομάδα Μάνης (ΦΟΜ Μιάο) in Stoupa (West Mani).

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 Greece

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Kit, answered.

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