Nessa

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Gender: female Birthday: November 2022 Castrated/Neutered: no Weight: 17,9 kg Back story: Nessa was found near the shelter in November 2025, very skinny but extremely friendly. Description/Updates/Pictures: Update July 2026: Nessa has been at the shelter for quite some time now. She is an incredibly affectionate and people-oriented dog. Nessa tested positive for Ehrlichia and Leishmaniasis. She is receiving the care she needs, and we sincerely hope that these diagnoses will not diminish her chances of finding a loving forever home. She has so much love to give and truly deserves the opportunity to be part of a family. Update November 2025:

About Nessa

What life with Nessa looks like

Nessa is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Souda Shelter in Chania.

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 Greece

Greek shelters often partner with Northern European rescue groups for placements. Animals are sterilized, vaccinated, and chipped before adoption. Fees vary widely depending on whether the shelter is municipal or NGO-run.

Frequently asked

Adopting Nessa, answered.

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