How do I contact the shelter about Ruby?

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

Can I adopt Ruby if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dogs Voice 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 Ruby 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 Ruby 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 Dogs Voice early rather than rehoming privately; they know Ruby 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 (EL). 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.

Ruby

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Ruby is looking for a new home! I rescued her at 15 days old, finding her abandoned in a cardboard box and over the past year Ruby has evolved from a tiny kitten into a very sweet little creature. During this year, in which I couldn't find her a home, unfortunately I realized in practice that a student who studies far from their hometown, as in my case, cannot meet the needs that a dog has to live happily. For this reason I am looking for a new family for her who will reciprocate the love and affection that Ruby is made to give. She is 15 months old and 11 kg, spayed and fully vaccinated. In addition, we have started training.

EL·Show original

Η ρουμπη ψάχνει ένα νέο σπίτι! Την έσωσα 15 ημερών, βρίσκοντας την παρατημένη σε ένα χαρτόκουτο και μέσα σε αυτό τον ένα χρόνο η ρουμπιτσα εξελίχθηκε από ποντικάκι σε ένα πολύ γλυκό πλασματάκι. Μέσα στο έτος αυτό, που δεν κατάφερα να της βρω σπίτι, δυστυχώς συνειδητοποίησα στην πράξη πως ένας φοιτητής που σπουδάζει μακριά από την πόλη του, όπως στην περίπτωση μου, δεν μπορεί να καλύπτει τις ανάγκες που έχει ένα σκυλάκι για να ζει ευτυχισμένα. Για τον λόγο αυτό της ψάχνω μια νέα οικογένεια που θα της ανταποδίδει την αγάπη και στοργή που η ρουμπιτσα είναι φτιαγμένη να χαρίζει. Είναι 15 μηνών και 11 κιλα, στειρωμένη και πλήρως εμβολιασμένη. Επιπλέον έχουμε ξεκινήσει εκπαίδευση.

About Ruby

What life with Ruby looks like

Ruby is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Dogs Voice in Athens.

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 Greece

Greek shelters often partner with Northern European rescue groups for placements. Animals are sterilized, vaccinated, and chipped before adoption. Fees vary widely depending on whether the shelter is municipal or NGO-run.
