How do I contact the shelter about PONGO?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Zavetisce Mala Hisa handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw PONGO on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt PONGO if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Zavetisce Mala Hisa 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 PONGO 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 PONGO 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 Zavetisce Mala Hisa early rather than rehoming privately; they know PONGO 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 (SL). 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.

PONGO

Mixed Breed · Unknown

PONGO IS WAITING FOR HIS NEW HOME Pongo was found in the woods, exhausted, tired and quite neglected. He is approximately one year old and fortunately, the hardest part of his journey is behind him. He is already much better, more confident and especially ready to meet the person who will become his forever. Pongo is an extremely pleasant, playful and affectionate dog. He loves walks, enjoys playing, and especially loves cuddling and being close to humans. On a walk, he is a true gentleman, does not pull on the leash very much, cooperates well and is very attentive to his walker. He really is a dog that quickly gets under your skin. Now Pongo only wants one thing, his human, his home and a life he deserves. If you think Pongo could be your new best friend, come to the Little House Shelter, meet him and spend some time with him. He might just be the one who steals your heart.

PONGO ČAKA NA SVOJ NOVI DOM Ponga smo našli v gozdu, shiranega, izčrpanega in precej zanemarjenega. Star je približno eno leto in na srečo je za njim najtežji del poti. Zdaj je že veliko boljše, je bolj samozavesten in predvsem pripravljen, da spozna človeka, ki bo postal njegov za vedno. Pongo je izredno prijeten, razigran in srčen kuža. Obožuje sprehode, uživa v igri, še posebej pa obožuje cartanje in bližino človeka. Na sprehodu je pravi gentleman, povodca ne vleče zelo, lepo sodeluje in je zelo pozoren na svojega sprehajalca. Res je kuža, ki ti hitro zleze pod kožo. Zdaj si Pongo želi samo še eno stvar, svojega človeka, svoj dom in življenje, kakršnega si zasluži. Če mislite, da bi bil Pongo lahko vaš novi najboljši prijatelj, pridite v Zavetišče Mala hiša, ga spoznajte in z njim preživite nekaj časa. Morda bo prav on tisti, ki vam bo ukradel srce.

About PONGO

What life with PONGO looks like

PONGO is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Zavetisce Mala Hisa in Zavetisce Mala Hisa.

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 Slovenia

Slovenian shelters follow EU pet passport requirements rigorously and coordinate with Italian, Austrian, and German rescue partners. Animals are fully vetted before leaving.
