Roko

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Roko was found running on the road and in the fields near the village of Budimír. He was very lucky that people noticed him, who were not indifferent to his fate, and he was brought to safety. He was probably left there by someone. Roko is an active and very social puppy who loves movement and wants to be involved in everything that happens. He is always in a good mood, full of energy and joy for life. He especially enjoys human company - he jumps with joy, gives kisses and enjoys every moment he can spend with his people. He likes fetching, playing with knots and various activities where he can use both his body and mind. He is very clever, quick to learn and understands new things quickly. He would be a great companion for trips, long walks and relaxing together after an active day. He gets along well with other dogs and female dogs. He chases cats, so he is not suitable for a household with cats and small animals. He has good hygiene habits and is easy to handle. However, he gets stressed during veterinary examinations, so he needs a muzzle. Roko is looking for a home ideally in a house with access to the inside, but he will be happy even in an apartment if there is enough activity and exercise. Roko is an amazing young dog with a whole life ahead of him. He is looking for people who will give him movement, attention and a loving home where he will be a full member of the family. For more information or if you are interested, please contact us at phone number . In case we are unavailable, please send us an SMS. If you decide to show interest in this dog, it must be a responsible and well-considered 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 dogs can be found on this link.

Roko sa našiel pobehovať po ceste a poli v blízkosti obce Budimír. Mal veľké šťastie, že ho spozorovali ľudia, ktorým jeho osud nebol ľahostajný, a dostal sa do bezpečia. Pravdepodobne ho tam niekto jednoducho zanechal. Od 31.10.2021 čaká v útulku na svoju šancu. Roky plynú, no Roko stále verí, že aj pre neho niekde existuje rodina. Roko je veľké zlatíčko s ešte väčším srdcom. Je to veselý, usmievavý a veľmi kontaktný psík, ktorý si napriek všetkému, čo má za sebou, zachoval obrovskú radosť zo života. Ľudí miluje a zo všetkého najviac si užíva ich spoločnosť. Keď sa teší, rozdáva pusinky, vrtí celým telom a človek má okamžite lepší deň. Má rád pohyb a aktivity, no nie je to len pes na výlety. Rovnako rád si po aktívnom dni oddýchne pri svojich ľuďoch. Miluje aportovanie, hry s uzlami a všetko, pri čom môže tráviť čas so svojím človekom. V lete si s nadšením užíva vodu a kúpanie v bazénikoch. Je šikovný, učenlivý a veľmi rád spolupracuje. So psami aj fenkami vychádza bez problémov. Mačky naháňa, preto nie je vhodný do domácnosti s mačkami ani s menšími zvieratami. Hygienické návyky má a manipulácia je bezproblémová. Pri veterinárnych vyšetreniach je však v strese, preto potrebuje náhubok. Roko si hľadá domov ideálne v dome s prístupom dovnútra, no pri dostatku pohybu a aktivít bude spokojný aj v byte. Roko už strávil v útulku takmer polovicu svojho života. Napriek tomu sa každý deň teší na ľudí, na prechádzky a na všetko pekné, čo mu deň prinesie. Veľmi by sme si priali, aby už nemusel ďalšie roky čakať za mrežami a aby konečne našiel rodinu, ktorá ho bude milovať takého, aký je. 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.

About Roko

What life with Roko looks like

Roko is a small 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 Roko, answered.

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