Mony

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Mony is a two-year-old Istrian Hound with an exceptionally gentle and good character. She is one of the survivors from one of the most severe cases of animal abuse in Croatia that was also covered by the media. For years, about 30 dogs were kept solely for breeding and profit, locked in sheds and stables, without basic care and living conditions. Thanks to the intervention of the veterinary inspection, all the dogs were taken away and rescued - so Mony got her new chance. She arrived at the shelter with her puppies and from the very beginning showed an exceptionally gentle and kind character. Despite everything she has been through, she remains attached to people and full of trust. Mony gets along well with other dogs, walks nicely on a leash and loves people very much. She is gentle, calm and affectionate, including in relation to children. She is looking for a family that will show her what safe and happy life looks like - soft bedding, walks and lots of love. After such a difficult start, she deserves to spend the rest of her life as a beloved member of the family.

Mony je dvogodišnja kujica istarskog goniča izuzetno nježnog i dobrog karaktera. Jedna je od preživjelih iz jednog od najtežih slučajeva zlostavljanja životinja u Hrvatskoj, koji je bio i medijski popraćen. Godinama je oko 30 pasa držano isključivo radi uzgoja i zarade, zatvoreno u šupama i stajama, bez osnovne skrbi i uvjeta za život. Zahvaljujući intervenciji veterinarske inspekcije, svi su psi oduzeti i spašeni – tako je Mony dobila svoju novu priliku. U sklonište je stigla zajedno sa svojim štencima i od samog početka pokazala iznimno blag i nježan karakter. Unatoč svemu što je prošla, ostala je privržena ljudima i puna povjerenja. Mony se lijepo slaže s drugim psima, odlično hoda na povodcu i jako voli ljude. Nježna je, mirna i privržena, uključujući i u odnosu s djecom. Traži obitelj koja će joj pokazati kako izgleda siguran i sretan život – mekani ležaj, šetnje i puno ljubavi. Nakon teškog početka, zaslužuje ostatak života provesti kao voljena članica obitelji.

About Mony

What life with Mony looks like

Mony is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Azil Dubrovnik in Croatia.

An young 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 Croatia

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

Frequently asked

Adopting Mony, answered.

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