Újhartyáni Zivi

Kuvasz · Male · Young · 1 year

Zivi was born on a farm where he had no loving human interactions. The outside world meant fear and danger for him for a long time. Thanks to a trap, we were able to save him along with his siblings, otherwise there would have been no chance for him. He first came close to a human at about four and a half months old. His initial reaction was understandably fear. He reacted with biting, barking and his whole body protested. Since then he has slowly started to open up, but he still needs a lot of time and patience. He is looking for a calm, understanding owner who accepts his pace and lets him gradually learn to trust. He gets along well with other dogs, which can be a big help for him in the new environment.

Zivi egy tanyán született, ahol nem volt része szeretetteljes emberi kapcsolatokban. A külvilág sokáig félelmet és veszélyt jelentett számára. Testvéreivel együtt befogó ketrec segítségével tudtuk megmenteni, más módon nem lett volna rá esély. Körülbelül négy és fél hónapos korában találkozott először közelebbről emberrel. Az első reakciója érthetően a rettegés volt. Harapással, ugatással és teljes testével tiltakozott. Azóta lassan elkezdett megnyílni, de még mindig sok időre és türelemre van szüksége. Olyan nyugodt, megértő gazdit keres, aki elfogadja az ő tempóját, és hagyja, hogy fokozatosan tanuljon meg bízni. Más kutyákkal jól kijön, ami nagy segítség lehet számára az új környezetben.

About Újhartyáni Zivi

What life with Újhartyáni Zivi looks like

Újhartyáni Zivi is a large young adult kuvasz dog waiting at Szent Ferenc Állatotthon.

A 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 Hungary

Hungarian shelters operate at high capacity given the country's stray population. Animals leave sterilized, chipped, and with a passport. Many shelters coordinate transport to Germany, Austria, and the Nordics.

Frequently asked

Adopting Újhartyáni Zivi, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Újhartyáni Zivi?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Szent Ferenc Állatotthon handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Újhartyáni Zivi on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Újhartyáni Zivi if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Szent Ferenc Állatotthon 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Újhartyáni Zivi 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 Újhartyáni Zivi 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 Szent Ferenc Állatotthon early rather than rehoming privately; they know Újhartyáni Zivi 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 (HU). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
