How do I contact the shelter about Milko?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Azil Dubrovnik handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Milko on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Milko if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Azil Dubrovnik 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 Milko 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 Milko 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 Azil Dubrovnik early rather than rehoming privately; they know Milko 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 (HR). 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.

Milko

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 3 months

Milko is a three-month-old Posavac Hound who arrived at the shelter from terrible conditions. He was rescued along with his mother and siblings from very difficult circumstances, where he spent the first weeks of his life without basic care, surrounded by dirt and fleas. At the shelter, he slowly learns that the world is not a scary place. Initially, he is a bit shy and cautious around new people and situations, but once he gains trust, he shows his gentle and affectionate nature. Like any puppy, he is playful, curious, and loves the company of other dogs. He needs a calm and patient home where he can gain security and confidence at his own pace. With a little love and understanding, he will grow into a loyal and beautiful family dog.

Milko je tromjesečni posavski gonič koji nam je stigao iz groznih uvjeta. Spašen je zajedno s majkom i braćom i sestrama iz vrlo teških uvjeta, gdje je prve tjedne života proveo bez osnovne skrbi, okružen prljavštinom i buhama. U skloništu polako uči da svijet nije strašno mjesto. Na prvu je pomalo plah i oprezan prema novim ljudima i situacijama, no čim stekne povjerenje pokazuje svoju nježnu i dragu narav. Kao i svako štene, razigran je, znatiželjan i voli društvo drugih pasa. Traži miran i strpljiv dom u kojem će svojim tempom steći sigurnost i samopouzdanje. Uz malo ljubavi i razumijevanja izrast će u odanog i prekrasnog obiteljskog psa. Milko je tromjesečni posavski gonič koji nam je stigao iz groznih uvjeta.

About Milko

What life with Milko looks like

Milko is a puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Azil Dubrovnik in Croatia.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇭🇷Adopting from Croatia

Croatian shelters include sterilization, vaccinations, and microchip ID in the adoption process. Several work with Italian and German rescue networks for placements.
