Adopt PAŠKO

Mixed Breed · Male

We would like to present to you our wonderful Pasha, who holds the title of the cutest puppy in Rescue! 😁 He is truly a beautiful dog at first glance, with nice eyes and a gentle look. PAŠKO came to the shelter from the street where he was found without a chip after wandering for days. It has never been clear to us how such a beautiful dog could have been abandoned or rejected by his home. It seems that his past was not easy and simple, and therefore PAŠKO is not a dog for beginners. PAŠKO is a special dog who is looking for special people who understand him and can provide him with a safe and peaceful home where our beautiful one will have space and time to regain his trust in people. In the shelter, PAŠKO shared his home with a female dog who was adopted, and after that PAŠKO remained alone. PAŠKO is incompatible with males because PAŠKO is dominant and this causes problems in the pack and among other male dogs. PAŠKO has problems with unfamiliar people towards whom he reacts very dominantly and fearfully. For this reason, we are looking for an experienced adopter who knows how to handle such dogs. In the shelter, PAŠKO is very close to his people, whom he simply adores and with whom he can relax, cuddle, walk and play all day long. It's hard for us to watch PAŠKO staying longer and longer in the shelter as he deserves his own home. PAŠKO is a fairly calm dog who enjoys relaxed walks, does not pull on the leash even though he is a larger breed, is about 55cm tall and was born in 2017. We are looking for experienced and calm people for Pasha, ideally a couple or individual, who understand him and give him the necessary time to settle. He could also be a companion for a family with older children. We hope that soon someone will come forward who would like to provide a peaceful home for Pasha and show him the better side of life. 🐾 Chip number: 191100002023558.

Predstavljamo vam našeg predivnog Paška koji nosi titulu najljepšeg frajera u Spasu! 😁 Stvarno je na prvi pogled, pas predivnog izgleda, lijepih očiju i nježnog pogleda. Paško je u sklonište došao sa ulice gdje je pronađen bez čipa kako luta danima. Nije nam nikada bilo jasno kako je ovako predivan pas mogao biti napušten ili odbačen iz doma. Čini se da njegova prošlost nije bila laka i jednostavna i zato Paško nije pas za početnike. Paško je poseban pas koji traži posebne ljude koji ga razumiju i mogu mu pružiti siguran i mirni dom gdje će naš ljepotan imati prostora i vremena da vrati povjerenje u ljude. U skloništu je Paško dijelio svoj dom sa ženkicom koja je udomljena i nakon toga je Paško ostao sam, sa mužjacima je Paško nekompatibilan jer je Paško dominantan i to mu predstavlja probleme u čoporu i u društvu drugih mužjaka. Paško ima problem sa nepoznatim ljudima prema kojima od straha reagira jako dominantno i prestrašeno. Iz tog razloga za njega tražimo dom sa iskusnim udomiteljima koji znaju postupati sa takvim psima. U skloništu je Paško jako blizak sa svojim ljudima koje jednostavno obožava i sa kojima se može opustiti, maziti, šetati i igrati cijele dane. Teško nam je gledati kako je Paško sve duže i duže u skloništu jer i on zaslužuje svoj dom. Paško je prilično miran pas koji uživa u opuštenim šetnjama, ne vuče na povodcu iako je pas veće građe, visok je cca 55cm i rođen 2017. godine. Tražimo iskusne i mirne ljude za Paška, idealno par ili pojedinca, koji ga razumiju i daju mu potrebno vrijeme da se smjesti. Također bi mogao biti pratilac za obitelj sa starijom djecom. Nadamo se da će se uskoro javiti netko tko bi se želio pružiti mirni dom Pašku i pokazati mu ljepšu stranu života. 🐾 Broj mikročipa: 191100002023558.

About PAŠKO

What life with PAŠKO looks like

PAŠKO is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Udruga Spas Varaždin in Varaždin.

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 Croatia

Croatian shelters include sterilization, vaccinations, and microchip ID in the adoption process. Several work with Italian and German rescue networks for placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting PAŠKO, answered.

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