About TAVA

What life with TAVA looks like

TAVA is a medium-sized young adult labrador retriever dog waiting at WOOF Project Europe in Cyprus.

A 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" β€” quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures β€” to let them settle.

πŸ‡¨πŸ‡ΎAdopting from Cyprus

Cypriot rescues focus heavily on cross-border placements (the island has more strays than local adopters). Shelters often vet animals before flying and coordinate vaccinations, chipping, and the passport, while adopters often pay for transport. Confirm with the shelter what is included.

Frequently asked

Adopting TAVA, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about TAVA?
Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. WOOF Project Europe handles screening and the adoption contract directly β€” TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw TAVA on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt TAVA if I live in another country?
Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask WOOF Project Europe whether they will for TAVA, what they require (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 TAVA already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
TailHarbor has no vaccination, microchip or sterilization details for TAVA. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by WOOF Project Europe, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if TAVA isn't the right fit?
Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask WOOF Project Europe about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know TAVA 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 (EN). Translation is imperfect β€” 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.
