Nico

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Nico is looking for a new home! Nico is another pile of energy and joy. Nico was brought by rescuers from a nearby village, where he was wandering, we don't know how he lived before. He is a hyperactive young dog, who needs to occupy both body and mind. With females is a companion, with other males rather not, although there are exceptions. Nico likes to play with toys and go on walks, he would definitely be happy if he went to training with his future owner or devoted himself to some sport. Suitable for outside with access to the yard.

SK·Show original

Nico hľadá nový domov! Nico je ďalšia kopa energie a radosti. Nico bol privezený nálezcami z jednej neďalekej obce, kde sa túlal, nevieme ako žil predtým. Je to hyperaktívny mlaďas, čo potrebuje zamestnať aj telo aj hlavu. So sučkami je kamarát, s druhými samcami skôr nie, i keď sa nájdu výnimky. Nico sa rád hrá s hračkami a chodí na prechádzky, určite by sa potešil keby s budúcim majiteľom chodil na cvičák alebo sa venoval nejakému športu. Vhodný von s prístupom dnu.

About Nico

What life with Nico looks like

Nico is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at OZ Šťastné Labky Fiľakovo in Slovakia.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇸🇰Adopting from Slovakia

Slovak rescue groups coordinate cross-border transport with European partners. Animals are chipped and vaccinated; sterilization is often included for adults and arranged post-adoption for puppies/kittens.

Frequently asked

Adopting Nico, answered.

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