Lora (Лора)

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 8 years

Lost dogs animal shelter.... There are those we have been writing about constantly lately, but their stories don't touch any heart... And there are those we don't even write about... because there's no hope for their happy family life anymore. If you walk around the animal shelter, looking closely into the eyes of each dog in the kennel run, you can meet eyes that speak without words... She was brought to us in January 2020 with a very complicated fracture. And the complexity was not only in the injury, but also in the character of Laura. She bit very aggressively... After the operation, the question of post-operative foster care arose and I took her home almost for a month. And I still don't understand how I managed to give her injections and treatments then. But we gradually found a common language and Laura recovered and moved back to the animal shelter. But the animal shelter is not for dogs like Laura. She became closed again and once again became distrustful... To save her somehow, we recently moved her to a separate enclosure, where she can only communicate with a person, not with other dogs. This gave a positive result, Laura waits for people to come to her, puts her head forward to be petted, but.... but we can't give her anything else anymore. Laura can only be saved by a family. Her age is approximately 6-7 years. Weight - 16-18 kg. Healthy, spayed, vaccinated.

Забуті собаки притулку.... Є ті, про яких ми останнім часом пишемо дописи постійно, але їх історії не торкаються жодного серця... А є ті, про яких ми навіть не пишемо... бо надії на їх щасливе родинне життя вже не має... Якщо ходити по притулку, довго вдивляючись в очі собак кожного вольєру, можна зустріти очі, які говорять без слів... Її нам привезли у січні 2020 року з дуже складним переломом . І складність була не тільки в травмі, а ще і в характері Лори . Вона кусалась дуже жорстоко... Після операції постало питання в післяопераційній перетримці і я забрала її майже на місяць додому. І досі не розумію, як я тоді змогла робити їй уколи та обробки. Але ми по трохи знайшли спільну мову і Лора одужала і переїхала до притулку. Але притулок не для таких собак, як Лора. Вона замкнулась і знов стала недовірливою... Щоб якось врятувати її , ми нещодавно переселили її в окремий вольєрчик, де вона має змогу спілкуватись тільки з людиною, а не з собаками. Це дало позитив, Лора чекає коли прийдуть до неї, підставляє голівку, щоб її погладити, але.... але більше ми нічого дати їй не можемо. Лору може врятувати тільки родина. Її вік - приблизно 6-7 років. Вага - 16-18 кг. Здорова, стерилізована, вакцинована.

About Lora (Лора)

What life with Lora (Лора) looks like

Lora (Лора) is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Happy Paw Kirovohrad in Ukraine.

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 Ukraine

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 Lora (Лора), answered.

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