Luna

Female · Senior · 9 years

Luna is a mixed breed, something from a Belgian Malinois and something from a Ridgeback. She came scared, but quickly gained confidence and integrated well. Luna came to us from one quarantine station, where she would have been euthanized. She gets along individually with dogs, but for example, she gets along very well with 7-year-old Rotweiller Šaň, who is in the adjacent exercise run. She has already gained some weight since she came to us and no longer looks as thin as in the photos. She loves food and especially movement. She needs a lot of movement, so she would be ideal for very active people or people with a garden where she can run around. She will faithfully love her master. Luna was adopted on 6.1.2018. We are keeping our fingers crossed for her in her new home. 13.11.2022: Unfortunately, Luna has returned to us after more than 4 years. She managed to get out of the yard several times and lastly destroyed part of a hydina farm - purebred animals - which cost the owner a significant amount of money... She is now older, grey, but she is still a nice dog who needs a good home... Photos will be updated when ready.

Luna je kríženec, niečo má z belgického ovčiaka a niečo z riidgebacka. Prišla vystrašená, ale rýchlo sa osmelila a začlenila sa. Luna ku nám prišla z jednej karanténnej stanice, kde by bola utratená. So psami sa znáša individuálne, ale napríklad si veľmi dobre rozumie so 7 ročným rotvajlerom Šaňom, ktorý je vo vedľajšom výbehu. Pribrať sa jej už trošku podarilo odkedy ku nám prišla a nevyzerá už tak vychudnuto ako na fotkách. Má rada jedlo a hlavne pohyb. Potrebuje veľa pohybu, takže ideálna by bola pre veľmi aktívnych ľudí alebo ľudí so záhradou kde to vybehá. Svojho pána bude oddane milovať. Podmienkou adopcie je podpísanie adopčnej zmluvy a zaplatenie symbolického adopčného poplatku. Luna sa adoptovala 6.1.2018. Držíme jej palce v novom domove. 13.11.2022: Žiaľ, Luna sa nám po viac ako 4 rokoch vrátila. Podarilo sa jej niekoľkokrát dostať zo dvora a naposledy vyvraždila časť hydinovej farmy - čistokrvné zvieratá - čo stálo majiteľa nemalý peniaz... Je už staršia, šedivá, ale stále je to milý psík, ktorý potrebuje dobrý domov... Fotky budú aktualizované keď dohára.

About Luna

What life with Luna looks like

Luna is a senior dog waiting at OZ Záchranný koráb in Slovakia.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇸🇰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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Luna, answered.

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