Motya (Мотя)

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 11 years

Mотя — senior dog. Approximately 10-12 years ago she appeared at animal shelter our shelter, and has been living with them ever since. In recent weeks, staff have noticed that she is not feeling well. Мотя has started losing weight, despite maintaining her appetite. Her stomach has significantly increased in size, she drinks a lot of water, but shortly after that she starts vomiting bile. Right now, strong frosts are held in the city of our area, and we are very worried about Мотя's condition. We want to examine her as soon as possible and help her feel better. Estimated cost of examination - 5000 грн.

Мотя — вікова собака. Приблизно 10–12 років тому вона з’явилася в притулку Сумське товариство захисту тварин, і відтоді весь цей час живе з ними. Останні тижні працівники помітили, що їй стає зле. Мотя почала втрачати вагу, попри збережений апетит. У неї сильно збільшився живіт, вона п’є дуже багато води, але вже за кілька хвилин після цього в неї починається блювання жовчю. Зараз у місті Суми тримаються сильні морози, і ми дуже хвилюємося за стан Моті. Хочемо якнайшвидше обстежити її та допомогти їй почуватися краще. Орієнтовна вартість обстеження — 5000 грн.

About Motya (Мотя)

What life with Motya (Мотя) looks like

Motya (Мотя) is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Happy Paw Sumy Oblast in Ukraine.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇺🇦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 Motya (Мотя), answered.

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