Meri (Мері)

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

This is Mary and she urgently needs a family. She's spayed, vaccinated, 6 years old, and weighs 26kg. Her history isn't easy - she was first abandoned on the street, then hit by a car where she lay for a day with everyone ignoring her. When we finally got the call, we immediately took Mary in. She healed well, but there was a problem: a tumor that couldn't be operated on. Thanks to veterinarians, it was removed and now Mary is healthy. She's friendly to people and dogs, well-behaved, knows some commands, and calm - the perfect dog. Please help her find a family.

About Meri (Мері)

What life with Meri (Мері) looks like

Meri (Мері) is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Happy Paw Cherkasy Oblast in Ukraine.

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 Ukraine

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 Meri (Мері), answered.

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