Shiva

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 3 years

A gentle natured dog that by the look of her ears must have some hunting dog in her! Shiva is a 3 year old who will need time to get to trust and adjust to her new home but she is very sweet and would make a nice companion dog. She was found abandoned with her pups and was quite difficult to catch as she was so scared of people. She has settled nicely in a foster home and walks nicely on a lead, being a medium energy dog. A quiet home would suit her best with a patient owner to allow her to settle in her own time. Shiva is around 17kg and measures 65cm to the top of her head, 55cm to her shoulder. She is vaccinated and microchipped and will be neutered before she leaves Greece. If you are interested in Shiva please fill in one of our pre adoption applications from our homepage and for more information contact GILLIAN on

About Shiva

What life with Shiva looks like

Shiva is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Greek Animal Rescue 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Shiva, answered.

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