Malinka

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 6 years

We introduce you to Malinka. She was found in Kretinga district near Darbėnai exhausted and frozen during the most severe winter cold. Upon arrival, she had to be taken to a clinic, her soles were completely frostbitten, and she had other ailments. Now she feels well. She can perform a few commands.

Pristatome Jums Malinka. Ji buvo pastebėta Kretingos rajone netoli Darbėnų išsekusi ir sušalusi per pačius negailestingiausius šios žiemos šalčius. Atvykus teko vykti į kliniką, buvo visiškai nušalę padai, buvo ir kitų negalavimų. Dabar ji jaučiasi gerai. Šiek tiek moka komandas.

About Malinka

What life with Malinka looks like

Malinka is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Būk mano draugas in Lithuania.

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.

🇱🇹Adopting from Lithuania

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 Malinka, answered.

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