Sonya (Сoня)

Female · Puppy · 6 months

🤍 Sonya was found at a lake in Poznyaky. Even at first glance, it’s clear she used to be a pet. Sonya is incredibly people-oriented, seeks contact, rejoices at every bit of attention, and sincerely longs to be by her person’s side. She’s about 4 months old—still just a little pup, just beginning to discover this world 🌿 Sonya is curious, sociable, and gentle, with a kind heart and a trusting gaze. She loves interacting with people, enjoys their company, and dreams of having her own home where she’ll be loved and never left behind again. Sonya will grow into a medium-sized dog—a wonderful companion for walks, cuddles, and happy family moments 🐕✨

🤍 Соню знайшли на озері на Позняках. І неозброєним оком видно — вона колись була домашньою. Соня дуже тягнеться до людей, шукає контакт, радіє кожній увазі та щиро хоче бути поруч зі своєю людиною. Їй близько 4 місяців, вона ще зовсім дитина, яка тільки відкриває для себе цей світ 🌿 Соня допитлива, соціальна та ніжна, із добрим сердечком і довірливим поглядом. Вона із задоволенням спілкується, любить компанію людей і мріє про власний дім, де її любитимуть і більше ніколи не залишать. Соня виросте собачкою середнього розміру — чудовою подругою для прогулянок, обіймів і щасливих сімейних моментів 🐕✨

About Sonya (Сoня)

What life with Sonya (Сoня) looks like

Sonya (Сoня) is a medium-sized puppy/kitten dog waiting at Sirius Shelter in Kyiv.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇺🇦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 Sonya (Сoня), answered.

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