Paulo

Mixed Breed · Male

Paulo came in with Amber and Pascal - they were caught by the city police in Košice on Prešovská road. Paulo is a big good guy with a puppy's soul. He is friendly, cheerful and always ready for any activity - whether fetching, playing around in water or just spending time with his person. He is happiest when he can be nearby and "be part of the action". He gets along very well with dogs and female dogs - he likes to play with them and has formed friendly relationships with several. He is the type of dog that quickly wins the heart of everyone he meets. Handling him is completely problem-free. He behaves politely during the day, doesn't destroy things and has good hygiene habits with regular walks. Recently he underwent eyelid surgery - the procedure was successful and he is functioning completely normally.

Paulo prišiel spolu s Amber a Pascalom – odchytení boli mestskou políciou v Košiciach pri Prešovskej ceste. Paulo je veľký dobrák s dušou šteniatka. Je priateľský, veselý a stále pripravený na akúkoľvek aktivitu – či už aportovanie, šantenie vo vode alebo len tak spoločné chvíle so svojím človekom. Najšťastnejší je, keď môže byť niekde nablízku a „byť súčasťou diania“. So psami aj fenkami vychádza veľmi dobre – rád sa s nimi hrá a s viacerými si vytvoril kamarátske puto. Je to typ psíka, ktorý si rýchlo získa srdce každého, koho stretne. Manipulácia je s ním úplne bezproblémová. Dnu sa správa slušne, veci neničí a hygienické návyky má zvládnuté pri pravidelnom venčení. Nedávno podstúpil plastiku očných viečok – zákrok má úspešne za sebou a momentálne funguje úplne normálne.

About Paulo

What life with Paulo looks like

Paulo is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at ÚVP Košice in Slovakia.

An 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 Paulo, answered.

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