Rodžijs

Male · 10 months

A medium-sized black and brown male puppy was found in Skrīveri. The owner was quickly identified, although the puppy was not microchipped. Instead of taking the puppy and avoiding the need to send him to a shelter, the owner said, "Man nah... I don't need a dog!" and that was that. Rodžijs is only about 10 months old. He is a friendly, very people-oriented and playful puppy. In terms of size, he is one that can be safely adopted for apartment living. The only thing to consider is that the puppy will need to be trained in obedience and other dog skills.

Maķenīt zem vidējā izmēra melnbrūnais suņjauneklis tika atrasts Skrīveros. Ātri vien īpašnieks tika noskaidrots, lai gan rējējs nebija čipēts, taču tā vietā, lai suni paņemtu un viņam nebūtu jādodas uz patversmi, norēca: “Man nah… suni nevajag!” un viss. Rodžijam ir vien apmēram 10 mēneši. Sirsnīgs, uz cilvēku ļoti tendēts un draisks suņjauneklis. Izmēra ziņā tāds, kuru droši var adoptēt arī dzīvošanai dzīvoklī. Vienīgi jārēķinās, ka puikuci vajadzēs pamācīt paklausībā un citās suņu gudrībās.

About Rodžijs

What life with Rodžijs looks like

Rodžijs is a adult dog waiting at Labās Mājas in Riga.

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 Latvia

The shelter typically completes the animal's vaccinations, microchipping, and pet passport before adoption. Specific fees and process details vary by shelter and country — confirm directly via the contact details in the sidebar.

Frequently asked

Adopting Rodžijs, answered.

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