Labradoropis

Labrador Retriever · Unknown · Senior · 16 years

Labradoropis, who had lived in the family for 16 years, ended up on the street one evening in the dark and cold. The story is harsh: the owner had left his wife and dog out of the house. The woman felt unwell and emergency medical help was called. Before being taken to the hospital, the woman still managed to shout to her neighbor that she was giving up the dog, because there was nowhere to live anymore. So the dog was left lying in the cold by the house, until other neighbors called the rescuers... Days and weeks passed. We found out that the woman has already been discharged from the hospital, but she has not come back for the dog. No one has even called. We thought that after 16 years together, even if there was no place to live, the owner would come back for the dog. We knew that while the housing issue was being resolved, we would take care of the dog. The main thing was that the owner didn't disappear. However, she did "disappear." And the police also confirmed it: in this family, no one wants the 16-year-old dog anymore. So the old dog's fate is to spend his golden years at the shelter. Dear volunteer dog walkers! We know that you like action and lively, active walks in the forest. With the old dogs who slowly chew small pieces, it's more "boring." But still, we would be very grateful if after running with the active dogs, you could spare a little time for the shelter's elderly dogs. Take a short walk around the shelter grounds, sit with them, talk to them, brush their coat. If you knew how grateful they are for this small piece of attention! For these old dogs, in this world, we are all that's left, and you...

Labradoropis, kurš ģimenē nodzīvojis 16 gadus, kādu vakaru tumsā un salā nonāca uz ielas. Stāsts ir skarbs: znots esot izlicis sievasmāti kopā ar suni no mājām. Sievietei kļuva slikti, tika izsaukta neatliekamā medicīniskā palīdzība. Pirms vešanas uz slimnīcu sieviete kaimiņienei vēl paspēja uzsaukt, ka no suņa atsakās, jo vairs neesot, kur dzīvot. Tā suns palika guļam pie mājas aukstumā, līdz citi kaimiņi izsauca glābējus… Gāja dienas un nedēļas. Uzzinājām, ka sieviete no slimnīcas jau ir izrakstīta, taču pie suņa tā arī nav atnākusi. Neviens pat nav piezvanījis. Mēs bijām iedomājušies, ka pēc 16 gadiem kopā, pat ja vēl nebūs kur dzīvot, saimniece pie suņa atnāks. Mēs zinājām, ka kamēr atrisināsies jautājums ar dzīvesvietu, suņopi pieskatīsim un aprūpēsim. Galvenais, lai saimniece nepazūd. Tomēr viņa “pazuda”. Un arī policija mums apstiprināja: šajā ģimenē 16 gadus veco suni nevienam vairs nevajag. Tā nu opītim liktenis lēmis vecumdienas vadīt patversmē. Mīļie brīvprātīgie suņu staidzinātāji! Mēs zinām, ka jums patīk darbība un raitas, aktīvas pastaigas mežā. Ar opīšiem, kuri lēnītēm čunčina mazus gabaliņus, ir “garlaicīgāk”. Un tomēr mēs būtu ļoti pateicīgi, ja pēc izskriešanās ar aktīvajiem suņiem kādu brītiņu veltītu arī patversmes večukiem. Iziet mazu aplīti kaut pa patversmes teritoriju, piesaulītē ar viņiem pasēdēt, parunāt, paķemmēt kažociņu. Ja jūs zinātu, cik viņi ir pateicīgi par šo kripatiņu uzmanības! Šiem opīšiem šajā pasaulē esam palikuši tikai mēs un jūs…

About Labradoropis

What life with Labradoropis looks like

Labradoropis is a senior labrador retriever dog waiting at Labās Mājas in Riga.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇱🇻Adopting from Latvia

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 Labradoropis, answered.

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