LUCKY

Mixed Breed · Unknown

A most gentle girl who loves human contact and is very loyal and affectionate, Lucky is currently in a foster home in Essex. She is around eight years' old, the most calm and non-reactive dog – nothing seems to faze her. She is very easy going and is currently living with five other dogs. She loves her walks and wants to run and play – going to the woods is her favourite pastime! Lucky isn't a dog for everyone – she is for real rescue enthusiasts – the people who know that the most rewarding companions often come with a few quirks. If you're looking for a rescue that comes with a story that will melt your heart Lucky may just be the dog you have been waiting for! She was rescued from the scorched aftermath of the wildfires near Athens two years' ago and now patiently waits for the person who will see her for the treasure she is. Lucky has been left with a condition that causes wobbly movements and this can lead to ‘accidents' in the home at times. The good news is that the condition is painless and not degenerative and allows Lucky to live her best life! We know she is not the easiest placement but for someone who appreciates a dog with a story and has space in their heart for a dog who needs just a little extra care, she will be a most rewarding companion. Lucky is neutered, vaccinated and chipped and is available to meet in person! If you are interested in hearing more please contact GILLIAN on . Or fill in one of our pre-adoption applications from our homepage and call Gillian on

About LUCKY

What life with LUCKY looks like

LUCKY is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Greek Animal Rescue in Athens.

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 Greece

Greek shelters often partner with Northern European rescue groups for placements. Animals are sterilized, vaccinated, and chipped before adoption. Fees vary widely depending on whether the shelter is municipal or NGO-run.

Frequently asked

Adopting LUCKY, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about LUCKY?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Greek Animal Rescue handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw LUCKY on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt LUCKY if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Greek Animal 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is LUCKY 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 LUCKY 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 Greek Animal Rescue early rather than rehoming privately; they know LUCKY 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.
