Riwa

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Our beautiful Riwa was rescued during the DRÁP operation, which is the largest animal shelter - DRÁP. She arrived extremely scared, immediately hid just by seeing a person! female dog belonged to the group "puppies for sale - export"! From the very beginning of her arrival, her path to rescue was difficult! female dog trusts other dogs, with which she has a positive relationship, more than people, who manipulates her daily. Although she happily jumps around people, physically touching her turns literally into a "chase" even in a small exercise run! Unfortunately, this female dog experienced traumas from the past and the future family must be prepared not only with a long period of patience, but also socialization and getting used to the home environment. Although she has 90% of her hygiene habits under control, it is still necessary to take into account "unpredictable" urination caused by fear, or unfortunately even elimination due to stressful situations. For this female dog, we need to use double protection for a long time - if she escapes, the person won't be able to catch her - she won't come back! female dog besides the shelter and necessary handling doesn't know anything. And especially not the elevator, dangers of the street, city traffic... For the female dog Riwu, we are looking for a family without small children, ideally with a dog, which will be a support for her in everyday life. A family that will provide her not only with an extreme amount of patience and love, but also socialization and show her that life can be something else besides the fear from the past! Nobody can guarantee the good health condition of animals from the shelter, so for each dog we are looking for well-secured families. For this female dog, we are looking for a family living in a house with a well-secured garden / yard.

Naša krásna Riwa bola zachránená počas akcie zhabania psíkov z najväčšej množiarne – DRÁP. Prišla extrémne prestrašená, okamžite sa zo strachu pocikala len čo videla človeka ! Fenka patrila do skupinky “ šteniat na predaj – vývoz “ ! Od samého začiatku príjmu jej cesta záchrany bola náročná ! Fenka skôr verí iným psíkom, ku ktorým má kladný vzťah ako ku človeku, ktorý s ňou denno – denne manipuluje. Síce okolo človeka radostne poskakuje, ale fyzicky sa jej dotknúť sa zmení doslova na “ naháňačku “ aj v malom výbehu ! Žiaľ táto fenka stihla zažiť traumy z minulosti a budúca rodinka musí počítať nie len s dlhým časom trpezlivosti, ale aj socializácie a so zvykaním si na domáce prostredie. Aj keď hygienické návyky má zvládnuté na 90 % , stále treba počítať s tým “ neočakávaným “ močením vyslovene zo strachu, či žiaľ aj s vyprázdením sa zo stresovej situácie. U tejto fenky treba po dlhú dobu počítať s dvojitým istením – ak by sa vyvliekla človek ju nemá šancu odchytiť – nepríde k nemu ! Fenka okrem množiarne a nutnej manipulácie na útulku nepozná NIČ. A už vôbec nie výťah, nástrahy ulice, ruch mesta … Pre fenku Riwu hľadáme rodinku bez malých detičiek, ideálne ku psíkovi, ktorý jej bude v každodennom živote oporou. Rodinku, ktorá jej dopraje nie len extrémne množstvo trpezlivosti a lásky, ale aj socializácie a ukáže jej, že život vie byť aj o niečom inom ako len o strachu z minulosti ! U psíkov z množiarne nik nevie zaručiť dobrý zdravotný stav zvieratka a preto pre každého psíka hľadáme dobre zabezpečené rodinky. Pre túto fenku hľadáme rodinku bývajúcu v dome s dobre zabezpečenou záhradkou / výbehom. Riwu je možné podporiť aj finančne, na veterinárne úkony a stravu.

About Riwa

What life with Riwa looks like

Riwa is a small young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Malá farma in Slovakia.

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 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 Riwa, answered.

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