Adopt Petros (Πέτρος)

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

The Petros was met by our friend in a village of Ioannina. stray, extremely friendly with people, and therefore an easy target. We put him in a boarding and until he came close to us, all his friends were exterminated.... Petros shows his gratitude in every dog way, calm, obedient, excellent in contact with two-legged and four-legged, ready for a home. Give him the opportunity and if you never had a dog, you will wonder how you lived without a companion.

Read original (el)

Τον Πέτρο τον συνάντησε φίλη μας σε ένα χωριό των Ιωαννίνων. Αδέσποτος, εξαιρετικά φιλικός με τους ανθρώπους, άρα και εύκολος στόχος. Τον βάλαμε σε πανσιόν και μέχρι να έρθει κοντά μας, όλοι του οι φίλοι εξοντώθηκαν.... Ο Πέτρος δείχνει την ευγνωμοσύνη του με κάθε σκυλίσιο τρόπο, ήρεμος, υπάκουος, εξαιρετικός στην επαφή του με δίποδους και τετράποδους, έτοιμος για σπίτι. Δώστε του την ευκαιρία και αν ποτέ δεν είχατε σκύλο, θα απορείτε πως ζούσατε πριν χωρίς μουσούδα.

About Petros (Πέτρος)

What life with Petros (Πέτρος) looks like

Petros (Πέτρος) is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Dogs Voice in Athens.

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 Petros (Πέτρος), answered.

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