Adopt Rexo

Mixed Breed · Male

We received a request for help from the owner of two dogs who needs to place them in a shelter because he can no longer handle them. So Rexo and Roky came to us, two completely unsocialized dogs who didn't even know a collar. The beginning at the shelter was difficult, but every day Rexo made a small progress and is now a completely different dog than when he came to us. Rexy has changed a lot with us, he is now a wonderful, friendly and kind dog. He is no longer afraid of people, on the contrary, he is happy to see everyone and comes running to you with a wagging tail. He loves being petted and scratched, enjoys the presence of a person and is happy with every caress. He really likes walks, he walks on a leash like a gentleman and easily handles easy hiking, he definitely doesn't lack energy. If he's in the mood, he likes to play with toys or bring a ball a few times. He is the perfect buddy for a car or a cart. He is a huge sweetheart and an easygoing dog, who just needs a comfortable bed, tasty food and a loving home. And tasty food is a basic factor of a happy home for Rexy (he's a gourmet)! He gets along very well with female dogs and sometimes plays with some of them. Inside he behaves politely, doesn't break things and has 100% hygiene habits. Handling is trouble-free. Rexo is looking for a loving owner or family who will accept him as a family member. He would certainly be happy if there is also a female dog companion in the house. The new home ideally looks for a cottage with a well-insulated kennel and access to the yard, but he can adapt to an apartment without problems. For more information or in case of interest, please contact us on phone number . In case of unavailability, please send us an SMS. If you decide to show interest in this shelter dog, it must be a responsible and thoughtful decision by the whole family. Think not only about the present but also about the future, consider all possible situations that may arise. All information on how you can help the shelter dogs can be found on this link. Only thanks to your support and help we can turn dreams into reality, suffering into joy and pain into love. You are part of every one of our rescues. Thank you.

Dostali sme prosbu o pomoc od majiteľa dvoch psíkov, ktorých potrebuje umiestniť v útulku, pretože ich už nezvláda. Tak k nám prišiel Rexo a Roky, dva úplne nesocializované psy, ktoré nepoznali ani obojok… Začiatky v útulku boli ťažké, ale každý deň Rexo urobil maličký pokrok a teraz je to už úplne iný psík ako keď k nám prišiel. Rexík sa u nás veľmi zmenil, teraz je to úžasný, priateľský a milý psík. Ľudí sa už nebojí, práve naopak všetkým ľuďom sa teší a pribehne ku Vám s vrtiacim chvostíkom. Najviac zo všetkého miluje mojkanie a škrabkanie, užíva si prítomnosť človeka a teší sa každému pohladeniu. Veľmi rád má prechádzky, na vodítku chodí ako pán pes a bez problémov zvládne nenáročnú turistiku, energia do života mu rozhodne nechýba. Ak má náladu, rád sa pohrá aj s hračkami, alebo párkrát donesie loptičku. Je to dokonalý parťák do voza aj do koča. Je to velikánsky miláčik a nenáročný psík, ktorému stačí len pohodlný peliešok, chutné papanie a láskavý domov. A chutné papanie je pre Rexíka fakt základ šťastného domova (je to gurmán)! S fenkami a psami vychádza veľmi dobre, aj sa s niektorými rád pohrá. Vo vnútri sa správa slušne, veci neničí a má 100% hygienické návyky. Manipulácia je bezproblémová. Rexo si hľadá milujúceho majiteľa/rodinku, ktorý ho príjmu ako člena rodiny. Určite bude rád ak v domove bude mať aj psiu kamarátku. Nový domov si hľadá ideálne do domčeka s kvalitnou zateplenou búdkou a s prístupom dnu, ale bez problémov si zvykne aj na byt. Pre viac informácií alebo v prípade záujmu nás kontaktujte na tel.č. . V prípade nedostupnosti nám prosíme napíšte sms. Ak sa rozhodnete prejaviť záujem o útulkáčika, musí to byť zodpovedné a premyslené rozhodnutie celej rodiny. Myslite nielen na prítomnosť, ale aj na budúcnosť, zvážte všetky možnosti a situácie, ktoré môžu nastať. Všetky informácie, ako viete pomôcť útulkáčikom, nájdete na tomto linku. Len vďaka Vašej podpore a pomoci dokážeme zmeniť sen na skutočnosť, utrpenie na radosť a bolesť na lásku. Vy ste súčasťou každej našej záchrany. Ďakujeme.

About Rexo

What life with Rexo looks like

Rexo is a 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. 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 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 Rexo, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Rexo?
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 Rexo on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Rexo 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 Rexo 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 Rexo 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 Rexo 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.
