Leeloo

Mixed Breed · Unknown

In Romania, the problem of stray dogs is particularly evident in areas where poor people live. When people do not have the resources to take care of themselves, animals are also left with poor care. So, unneutered dogs often run freely and breed uncontrollably. A poorly-off man had a group of dogs that lived in his yard and around the yard. Animal welfare activists regularly visited him and managed to negotiate with the man to take the dogs with them. Finally, the last two were taken to safety. The duo named Leeloo and Jessy ended up at Eli for Animals' Claudian, from where they are now looking for their own homes. Leeloo is very likely Jessy's puppy. Leeloo is a typical happy and energetic young dog. She plays and plays most of the day. She sometimes gets nervous at first when meeting new people, but after the initial nervousness, she is a very loving person. She would do well in many different homes, either as a single dog or with a dog companion. They have disagreements with their mother from time to time, which is why they are looking for homes separately.

Romaniassa kodittomien koirien ongelma näkyy erityisesti alueilla, joilla asuu köyhiä ihmisiä. Kun ihmisillä ei ole resursseja huolehtia edes itsestään, jäävät myös eläimet huonommalle hoidolle. Niinpä leikkaamattomat koirat juoksentelevat usein vapaina ja lisääntyvät hallitsemattomasti. Eräällä huonosti voivalla miehellä oli joukko koiria, jotka asuivat milloin hänen pihallaan ja milloin pihan lähistöllä. Eläinsuojelijat olivat säännöllisesti käyneet hänen luonaan ja saaneet neuvoteltua mieheltä koiria mukaansa. Lopulta viimeiset kaksi saatiin haettua turvaan. Leelooksi ja Jessyksi nimetty kaksikko päätyi Eli for Animalsin Claudian luo, mistä käsin he nyt etsivät omia kotejaan. Leeloo on hyvin todennäköisesti Jessyn pentu.Leeloo on tyypillinen iloinen ja vauhdikas nuori koira. Hän touhottaa ja leikkii ison osan päivästä. Vieraita ihmisiä hän toisinaan alkuun jännittää, mutta alkujännityksen hälvettyä hän on mitä ihmisrakkain persoona. Hän pärjäisi varmasti monenlaisessa kodissa, joko ainoana koirana tai koiraverin kanssa. Emonsa kanssa heillä on toisinaan erimielisyyksiä, mistä johtuen he etsivät koteja erikseen.

About Leeloo

What life with Leeloo looks like

Leeloo is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Embla Rescue in Helsinki.

An 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 Finland

Finnish shelters require a home visit and an adoption contract. Animals are vetted; the EU pet passport covers cross-border travel within the bloc.

Frequently asked

Adopting Leeloo, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Leeloo?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Embla Rescue handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Leeloo on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Leeloo if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Embla Rescue 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Leeloo 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 Leeloo 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 Embla Rescue early rather than rehoming privately; they know Leeloo 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 (FI). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
