Adopt Matea

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 7 years

Origin Country: Hungary On May 13, 2026, the quintet consisting of the charming dogs Matea, Bogat, Csingiz, Zsanin, and Jefte from the city of Jászkarajenő arrived at the animal shelter in Kecskemét. Unfortunately, there is no information about their past. They had been living on the streets there, and the mayor informed the Menhely. None of the dogs had a chip, and no one claimed them. We hope that the Menhely will only be a short stopover, and they will soon find their own people who will stick with them through thick and thin and never leave them. The five do not necessarily have to be rehomed together. Although Matea's new situation is not easy, she tries to make the best of it. She is a loving, friendly, and affectionate four-legged friend. A great female dog who wants to explore and discover the world with her new two-legged friends. Matea is very attached to people and loves it when they give her attention and affection, always seeking the company of the animal shelter staff. She is happy when her people teach her the basics of dog training and continue to challenge and encourage her. She wishes for lots of quality time and great experiences with her new family. What else Matea enjoys and where her talents lie, her new family will have to discover. Matea gets along well with her fellow animals and is currently (June 2, 2026) being integrated into a mixed pack. For our beloved Matea, we are looking for adventurous and loving people who will challenge Matea both mentally and physically, enjoy being outdoors with their four-legged friend, have lots of love and security for Matea, and warmly welcome her into their family forever. Whoever gives this wonderful female dog their time and love will receive a faithful companion for life. Whose life can Matea enrich? Matea can travel from around the end of June 2026 if she finds a home or a foster home.

Ursprungsland: Ungarn Am 13.5.2026 kam das Quintett bestehend aus den bezaubernden Hunden Matea, Bogat, Csingiz, Zsanin und Jefte aus der Stadt Jászkarajenő nach Kecskemét ins Tierheim. Zu ihrer Vergangenheit ist leider nichts bekannt. Sie lebten dort auf der Strasse und der Bürgermeister informierte das Menhely. Keiner der Hunde hatte einen Chip, noch meldeten sich der oder die Besitzer. Wir drücken ihnen fest die Daumen, dass das Menhely nur eine kurze Zwischenstation bleiben wird und sie bald ihre eigenen Menschen finden, welche mit ihnen durch dick und dünn gehen und sie nie mehr im Stich lassen. Die Fünf müssen natürlich nicht zusammen vermittelt werden. Auch wenn für Matea ihre neue Lebenssituation nicht einfach ist, versucht sie das Beste daraus zu machen. Sie ist eine liebe, kontaktfreudige und freundliche Vierbeinerin. Eine tolle Hündin, welche die Welt erobern und entdecken möchte, gemeinsam mit ihren neuen Zweibeinern. Matea ist den Menschen sehr zugetan und liebt es, wenn man ihr Aufmerksamkeit und Zuwendung schenkt, sie sucht immer die Nähe der Tierheimmitarbeiter. Sie freut sich, wenn ihre Menschen ihr liebevoll die Basic des Hundeeinmaleins beibringen und sie weiter fordern und fördern. Sie wünscht sich viel Qualitytime und tolle Erlebnisse mit ihrer neuen Familie. An welchen Sachen Matea sonst noch Freude hat und wo ihre Talente schlummern, dürfen dann ihre neuen Dosenöffner rausfinden. Mit ihren Artgenossen versteht sich Matea gut und wird aktuell (2.6.2026) in ein gemischtes Rudel integriert. Für unsere allerliebste Matea suchen wir unternehmungslustige und liebevolle Menschen, welche Matea geistig wie körperlich auslasten, gerne mit ihrem Vierbeiner in der Natur unterwegs sind, viel Liebe und Geborgenheit für Matea haben und sie herzlich in ihrer Familie für immer willkommen heissen. Wer dieser wundervollen Hündin seine Zeit und Liebe schenkt, wird eine treue Begleiterin fürs Leben bekommen. Wessen Leben darf Matea bereichern? Matea kann ab ca. Ende Juni 2026 reisen, wenn sie ein Zuhause oder eine Pflegestelle gefunden hat.

About Matea

What life with Matea looks like

Matea is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Animal Happyend in Animal Happyend.

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 Switzerland

Swiss shelters require a home visit (Platzkontrolle) and proof of suitable accommodation. Cantons each have their own additional dog-keeping requirements (e.g. SKN training in some areas). Animals leave sterilized and chipped.

Frequently asked

Adopting Matea, answered.

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