Shpilka (Шпилька)

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Kyiv and Kyiv Oblast! Looking for a family! Spilinka - a small dog with a big heart. Still a very young pup, but already knows what it means to be abandoned. She was found on the street, and it was immediately clear that she had lived in a home. Someone simply got rid of this wonderful girl, as if she were just a thing. But Spilinka has not lost her faith in people. She longs for human company, loves attention, and always wants to be with someone. Active, cheerful, intelligent - she learns quickly and with great pleasure interacts with humans. Small in size, so she will be an ideal apartment dog. Spilinka is about joy, movement, warm evenings together, and a happy tail that will greet you every day. She desperately needs a family - the same one that will never betray her. Temporary date of birth: May 20, 2025. Coat color: black, small size. Vaccinated, microchipped, has a veterinary veterinary passport, we guarantee free castration.

About Shpilka (Шпилька)

What life with Shpilka (Шпилька) looks like

Shpilka (Шпилька) is a small young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Happy Paw Kyiv Oblast in Ukraine.

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 Ukraine

Frequently asked

Adopting Shpilka (Шпилька), answered.

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