Adopt Stela

Kangal · Female · Adult · 5 years

Description: Stela is a friendly bulldog-type dog who was taken from the owner due to unsuitable living conditions. She is known for her friendly and gentle character, as she likes to play and is company for people. Weighs around 45kg. On walks, she is well-behaved, but does not get along best with other dogs, so caution is needed. Looking for a home where she will be the only pet, preferably in a house with a garden. Not housebroken. Date of birth: 15. 05.

Opis: Stela je simpatična psička v tipu kangala, ki je bila odvzeta lastniku zaradi neprimernih življenjskih pogojev. Znana je po svojem prijaznem in crkljivem značaju, saj se rada boža in je v družbi človeka. Tehta okrog 45kg. Na sprehodih je lepo vodljiva, vendar se s psi ne razume najbolje, zato je potrebna previdnost. Išče dom, kjer bo edini hišni ljubljenček, najraje v hiši z vrtom. Ni sobno čista. Datum rojstva : 15. 05. 2021

About Stela

What life with Stela looks like

Stela is a large adult kangal dog waiting at Zavetišče Ljubljana in Ljubljana.

An 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.

Note from the shelter: Not house trained, needs to be only pet

🇸🇮Adopting from Slovenia

Slovenian shelters follow EU pet passport requirements rigorously and coordinate with Italian, Austrian, and German rescue partners. Animals are fully vetted before leaving.

Frequently asked

Adopting Stela, answered.

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