Nosik (Носік)

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

In animal shelter he has been for 5 years. We took him from very bad conditions at the age of 3 years, Nосик was almost a skeleton then. His owner was very drunk and constantly forgot to feed Nосик. Sometimes he received only a piece of bread every few days. We spent a long time feeding him, treating his stomach and pancreas. His path to recovery was very long. Now Nосик is healthy, lives in a kennel run with his unchanging companion Irma. But he is still a very lonely dog. There is constant sadness in his eyes. Can we ever find a family for a dog that is 8 years old, who has experienced human cruelty, who is now alone and not very trusting?.......

В притулку він вже 5 років. Ми забрали його з дуже неблагополучних умов у віці 3 років, Носик тоді був майже скелетом. Адже його господарка дуже пиячила і постійно забувала годувати Носіка. Іноді він отримував тільки шматок хліба раз на декілька днів. Ми довго довго відгодовували, лікували шлунок та підшлункову. Його шлях до одужання був дуже довгий. Зараз Носик здоров, живе у вольєрі з незмінною подружкою Ірмою. Але всеж він дуже дуже самотній пес. В його очах постійний сум. Чи зможемо ми колись знайти родину песу, якому 8 років, який пізнав людську жорстокість, який зараз самотній і не дуже довірливий?.......

About Nosik (Носік)

What life with Nosik (Носік) looks like

Nosik (Носік) is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Happy Paw Kirovohrad 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 Nosik (Носік), answered.

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