How do I contact the shelter about Nelma (Нельма)?

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

Can I adopt Nelma (Нельма) if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dobri Ruky 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 Nelma (Нельма) 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 Nelma (Нельма) 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 Dobri Ruky early rather than rehoming privately; they know Nelma (Нельма) 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.

Nelma (Нельма)

Mixed Breed · Female

We are looking for the best owners! Very much we wish Nelma to find a family sooner and not know what it is like to live among 150 dogs. We wish for her to be noticed, understood, loved, and warmed by her shy, skeptical heart. It has already turned out that life in a big family does not please her much. She is uncomfortable with the large gathering of people and dogs. It is hard for her to adapt to new conditions, but Nelma openly embraces the usual things. She is a wise, very kind, and good dog. She joyfully meets familiar people, and she is a good territory guard. She does not go to strangers, she loves her own! By nature, she is modest, obedient, wise, good, kind, but skeptical. Her approximate date of birth is August 8, 2015. Coat color is light brown, medium size, 47 cm at the withers. She is vaccinated, spayed, microchipped, and has a veterinary passport.

Шукаємо найкращих господарів! Дуже хочеться, щоб Нельма швидше знайшла родину і не знала, що таке жити серед 150 собак. Хотілося, щоб її помітили, зрозуміли, полюбили та обігріли її скромне, недовірливе серце. Так вже склалося, що життя у великій родині не дуже тішить її. Їй некомфортно велике скупчення людей та собак. Їй складно звикати до нових умов, але Нельма відверто радіє звичним речам. Вона розумниця, дуже ласкава і добра собака. Весело зустрічає знайомих їй людей, добре охороняє свою територію. До чужих у руки не йде, свої любитиме! За характером скромна, слухняна, розумна, добра, ласкава, але недовірлива собака! Умовна дата народження 08 липня 2015 року. Забарвлення палеве, розмір середній, 47 см в загривку. Вакцинована, кастрована, чипована, з ветеринарним паспортом.

About Nelma (Нельма)

What life with Nelma (Нельма) looks like

Nelma (Нельма) is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Dobri Ruky in Kyiv.

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 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.
