Adopt Sem (Сем)

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

Boy. His name is Sam. Neutered. He is 6 years old. Lives with us in the animal shelter for 5 years. The fate of this dog is very hard: 5 years ago, the villagers broke his head with a shovel, just because he, being very hungry, stole a chicken from them. But caring people informed us about this incident and we managed to save the dog from death. Doctors made great efforts to treat him. So all those who participated in Sam's rescue hope that this good, active, and not having lost faith in people dog will find his new family. He will be a very good "bell" in your yard!!!

Хлопчик. Звати Сем. Кастрований. Йому 6 років. Живе з нами у притулку 5 років. Доля цього собаки дуже тяжка: 5 років тому, йому селюки проломили голову лопатою, тільки за те, що він будучи дуже голодним, вкрав у них курицю. Але небайдужі люди повідомили нам про цей випадок і ми змогли врятувати собаку від смерті. Лікарі приклали багато зусиль для його лікування. Отже всі, хто приймав участь у порятунку Сема сподіваються на те, що цей добрий, активний, та не втративши віру в людей собака, знайде свою нову родину. Він буде дуже гарним "дзвіночком" на вашому подвір' ї !!!

About Sem (Сем)

What life with Sem (Сем) looks like

Sem (Сем) is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Happy Paw Dnipro in Ukraine.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇺🇦Adopting from Ukraine

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 Sem (Сем), answered.

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