Marlis

Mixed Breed · Male

8-year-old Labrador mix Marlis would love a second chance at a home. Marlis was brought to us by our volunteer from Panevėžys, where he was taken to a vet clinic to be euthanized. He was diagnosed with urolithiasis. Upon arrival, Marlis was scheduled for surgery. The operation was successful and the dog has been living with us for a year. The only challenge is that Marlis needs specialized food. He is otherwise very cheerful, vocal, friendly, and still an active senior. We and Marlis are hoping for a miracle🙏

8 metų labradoro mišrūnas Marlis labai norėtų antros galimybės turėti namus. Marlį mūsų savanorė atgabeno iš Panevėžio, kur jis buvo atvežtas į vet. kliniką, užmigdyti”. Jam buvo diagnozuota akmenligė. Atvykus pas mus, Marlis buvo užrašytas operacijai. Operacija buvo atlikta sėkmingai ir šunelis jau metus gyvena pas mus. Vienintelis, sunkumas”, kad Marliui reikia specializuoti maistuko. Šiaip jis labai linksmas, balsingas, draugiškas, dar aktyvus senjoras. Mes kartu su Marliu tikimės stebuklo🙏

About Marlis

What life with Marlis looks like

Marlis is a medium-sized 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. 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 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 Marlis, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Marlis?
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 Marlis on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Marlis 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 Marlis 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 Marlis 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 Marlis 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.
