Lulu

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

Date of birth: 10. 6. 2021 Weight: It is a large dog, weighs about 30 kg and somewhat resembles a Karst shepherd. Description: Lulu is a very nice puppy. We accepted her at the animal shelter on 9. 1. 2023. At that time, she was very scared and sensitive. She reacted with fear to every human movement. Since being here, she has gained confidence and trusts people much more. She has learned to play and now loves balls. She is very food motivated and can be guided with food. She is not socialized with other dogs. A larger dog is sometimes pleasing to her, but in general she does not like them. She is definitely not suitable for living with smaller dogs. She is house trained and does not destroy things, except for toys, which she destroys and sometimes even eats. On a leash, she is well behaved and usually walks calmly. You can watch a video of Lulu on this link.

Datum rojstva: 10. 6. 2021 Teža: Je večje rasti, tehta dobrih 30 kg in malo spominja na kraškega ovčarja. Opis: Lulu je zelo simpatična psička. V zavetišče smo jo sprejeli 9. 1. 2023. Takrat je bila zelo prestrašena in občutljiva. S strahom je odreagirala na vsak človeški gib. Odkar je pri nas, je pridobila na samozavesti in veliko bolj zaupa ljudem. Naučila se je igrati in sedaj obožuje žogice. Zelo je ješča in jo je lahko voditi s hrano. Ni socializirana do drugih psov. Kakšen večji pes ji je tu in tam všeč, v splošnem pa jih ne mara. Nikakor pa ni primerna za druženje z manjšimi psi. Je sobno čista in ne uničuje stvari, razen igrač, ki jih uničuje in včasih tudi poje. Na povodcu je lepo vodljiva in večino časa umirjeno hodi. Video posnetek Lulu si lahko ogledate na tej povezavi.

About Lulu

What life with Lulu looks like

Lulu is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Zavetišče Ljubljana in Ljubljana.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

Note from the shelter: Not suitable for homes with small dogs. Destroys and sometimes eats toys.

🇸🇮Adopting from Slovenia

Slovenian shelters follow EU pet passport requirements rigorously and coordinate with Italian, Austrian, and German rescue partners. Animals are fully vetted before leaving.

Frequently asked

Adopting Lulu, answered.

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