How do I contact the shelter about Leila?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. ÚVP Košice handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Leila on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Leila if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ÚVP Košice 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 Leila 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 Leila 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 ÚVP Košice early rather than rehoming privately; they know Leila 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 (SK). 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.

Leila

Mixed Breed · Female

Leila was found injured on the road near Luník IX in Košice. She was immediately taken to a veterinary clinic, where she was diagnosed with multiple fractures. She underwent hospitalization, surgery, and subsequent treatment. Despite a serious injury, she handled everything very bravely, and today she is a happy young female dog ready to find a new home. From the very first day, Leila was friendly, outgoing, and playful. She loves people, enjoys their company, and likes to be part of all the activities around her. She is active, curious, and eagerly explores new places and experiences. Leila gets along with dogs, including other female dogs, without any problems. She likes to play, chase, and often encourages them to join in the fun. Inside, she behaves well, and she doesn’t damage things. She has good hygiene habits during her regular walks. Handling her is completely problem-free. She explores her surroundings and delights in every activity with her human. She regularly goes on walks, handles travel in a car, and has good socialization both within the shelter and in the city. Leila is looking for a home in an apartment or a house with full access inside. She would be a great companion for more active people who will treat her as a family member and provide her with plenty of shared time and experiences. HEALTH STATUS: After the car accident, she sustained a fracture in the humerus bone of her right front leg and a fracture in the tarsal bone of her left hind leg. She underwent surgery, hospitalization, and subsequent convalescence. The injury does not limit her in her everyday life. The costs for her veterinary care were not small. The surgery, hospitalization, and treatment at the University Veterinary Clinic cost a total of 755.50 €. Leila has already overcome her toughest life test. Now she just needs a family that will show her that after difficult times, a happy ending can come.

Leila sa našla zrazená na ceste pri Luníku IX v Košiciach. Bola okamžite prevezená na veterinárnu kliniku, kde jej boli diagnostikované viaceré zlomeniny. Absolvovala hospitalizáciu, operáciu a následnú liečbu. Napriek vážnemu úrazu všetko zvládla veľmi statočne a dnes je z nej veselá mladá fenka pripravená hľadať si nový domov. Od prvého dňa bola Leila priateľská, kontaktná a hravá. Má rada ľudí, ich spoločnosť si užíva a rada je súčasťou všetkého diania okolo seba. Je aktívna, zvedavá a s nadšením objavuje nové miesta aj zážitky. Leila vychádza so psami aj fenkami bez problémov. Rada sa s nimi hrá, naháňa a často ich sama vyzýva k spoločnému šanteniu. Vo vnútri sa správa slušne a veci neničí. Hygienické návyky má pri pravidelnom venčení. Manipulácia je úplne bezproblémová. Rada aportuje, skúma okolie a teší sa z každej aktivity so svojím človekom. Pravidelne chodí na výlety, zvláda cestovanie autom a má dobrú socializáciu v meste aj mimo útulku. Leila si hľadá domov v byte alebo v dome s úplným prístupom dovnútra. Bude skvelou spoločníčkou pre aktívnejších ľudí, ktorí ju budú brať ako člena rodiny a doprajú jej dostatok spoločného času a zážitkov. ZDRAVOTNÝ STAV: Po zrazení autom utrpela zlomeninu ramennej kosti na pravej prednej nohe a zlomeninu hlavice stehennej kosti na ľavej zadnej nohe. Absolvovala operáciu, hospitalizáciu a následnú rekonvalescenciu. Úraz ju nijako neobmedzuje v bežnom živote. Náklady na jej veterinárnu starostlivosť neboli malé. Len operácia, hospitalizácia a ošetrenie na Univerzitnej veterinárnej klinike stáli spolu 755,50 €. Leila už svoju najťažšiu životnú skúšku zvládla. Teraz jej chýba už len vlastná rodina, ktorá jej ukáže, že po ťažkých chvíľach môže prísť aj šťastný koniec.

About Leila

What life with Leila looks like

Leila is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at ÚVP Košice in Slovakia.

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 Slovakia

Slovak rescue groups coordinate cross-border transport with European partners. Animals are chipped and vaccinated; sterilization is often included for adults and arranged post-adoption for puppies/kittens.
