Sofia

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Sofia is looking for a new home! Sofia is a very energetic young puppy who was found abandoned in one village. Sofia would need a more experienced and active owner who can provide her with plenty of activities, both physical and mental. A dog trainer or some dog sport would definitely interest her, at the very least long walks. Sofia loves people, enjoys being petted, could also be suitable for a family with children, but we recommend only older children. Sofia gets along well with other dogs, and after a more thorough introduction, also with other puppies. She loves toys, fetching balls, tug-of-war, chase games, basically a hyperactive puppy. Suitable for a yard with access to the ground.

Sofia hľadá nový domov! Sofia je veľmi energická mladá sučka, ktorá sa našla vyhodená v jednej obci. Sofia by potrebovala skúsenejšieho a aktívneho majiteľa, ktorý jej zabezpečí dostatok aktivít, ako fyzických tak i psychických. Určite by ju bavil aj cvičák alebo nejaký psí šport, minimálne dlhé prechádzky. Sofia ľudí zbožňuje, miluje hladkanie, mohla by aj do rodiny s deťmi, ale odporúčame len k starším deťom. Sofia vychádza dobre s druhými psami, po dôkladnejšom zoznámení aj s druhými sučkami. Miluje hračky, aportovanie loptičiek, preťahovanie, naháňačky, proste hyperaktivitka. Vhodná na dvor s prístupom dnu.

About Sofia

What life with Sofia looks like

Sofia is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at OZ Šťastné Labky Fiľakovo in Slovakia.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Sofia, answered.

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