Merilin

Mixed Breed · Female

Merilin sa našla v obci Drienovec v areáli družstva, kde si ju všimli pracovníci na stavbe. Maličké šteniatko sa tam zdržiavalo celý deň, no nikto ho nehľadal ani sa k nemu neprihlásil. Ako sa tam Merilin dostala a odkiaľ pochádza, nevieme. Merilin je zatiaľ ešte maličké šteniatko, ktoré postupne spoznáva svet okolo seba. Je zvedavá, hravá a rada objavuje nové veci. Ako každé šteniatko, aj ona potrebuje dostatok pozornosti, kontaktu s ľuďmi, hry, ale aj odpočinku. Je vo veku, keď sa ešte len učí všetko potrebné pre život po boku človeka. Budúci majitelia musia počítať s učením hygienických návykov, chôdze na vôdzke, základnej poslušnosti a postupnou socializáciou. Dôležitá bude trpezlivá, láskavá a dôsledná výchova, aby z nej vyrástla vyrovnaná a dobre socializovaná fenočka. Pre Merilin hľadáme zodpovednú rodinu, ktorá si uvedomuje, že adopcia šteniatka znamená dlhoročný záväzok. Potrebuje domov, kde bude mať dostatok času, pozornosti a kde sa jej budú majitelia aktívne venovať aj počas dospievania. Vhodná bude do bytu alebo rodinného domu s úplným prístupom dovnútra, kde bude plnohodnotným členom rodiny. Merilin má celý život ešte pred sebou. Veríme, že sa jej podarí nájsť domov, v ktorom bude vyrastať v bezpečí, s láskou a starostlivosťou, ktorú každé šteniatko potrebuje. Prevoz cez hranice momentálne nie je možný z dôvodu prebiehajúcich veterinárnych úkonov. OČKOVANIE: prebieha – predpokladané ukončenie 18.11. 2026

About Merilin

What life with Merilin looks like

Merilin is an adult mixed breed dog waiting at ÚVP Košice in Slovakia.

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 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 Merilin, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Merilin?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. ÚVP Košice handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Merilin on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Merilin if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ÚVP Košice 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Merilin 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 Merilin 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 ÚVP Košice early rather than rehoming privately; they know Merilin 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.
