Adopt Lenny

Male · Puppy · 4 months

Background When Lenny was a very young puppy he lived in the streets of Macedonia with his mother Norma and his sister Leah. Leah and Lenny were the only survivors of the litter, because Norma had a really hard time to survive herself and the puppies wasted away, were killed by other dogs or by people who were annoyed by the mother and her small puppies when they were searching for food and shelter. But Lenny was lucky that Norma and her two puppies were rescued and saved from a miserable destiny as strays or even death. Likes Lenny is a very cheerful and playful young boy and gets along really well with other dogs and cats too. He is very friendly to people in general and likes children. Dislikes and issues Lenny was a bit shy at the beginning but he adjusted really well in kennels. We assume he was hit on his head, which affected his eyesight. His eyes have been treated but it is still visible that his eyes are not entirely normal, but it does not seem to affect his eyesight anymore. Ideal Home Lenny can be homed with another resident dog or as an only dog. He would need a home with a fenced outdoor area where he could easily go outside. Daily walks are a must for him as he is still young and has a moderate level of energy. Lenny is neutered, microchipped and fully vaccinated.

About Lenny

What life with Lenny looks like

Lenny is a medium-sized puppy/kitten dog waiting at Strays Without Borders in Skopje.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇲🇰Adopting from North Macedonia

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 Lenny, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Lenny?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Strays Without Borders handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Lenny on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Lenny if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Strays Without Borders 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 Lenny 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 Lenny 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 Strays Without Borders early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lenny 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.
