Tay (Тай)

Mixed Breed · Male

Kyiv and the Kyiv region! We’re looking for a family for Tay! He’s been to the shelter for treatment several times. At first, it seemed that after each course of treatment, things would improve: his coat would grow back, his skin would heal, and he’d feel much better. But after a while, the problem would return again and again. The cause is atopic dermatitis. For a dog who lives on the street—even near people who care for him—this is a real ordeal. Constant discomfort, itching, rashes, and hair loss make life extremely difficult. After yet another round of treatment, we decided to keep Tay at the shelter and give him a chance to find a loving family. And he has plenty of chances! Tay is a very gentle, cheerful, and sociable dog. He loves people, walks, and active interaction. His only special need is regular health monitoring and a carefully chosen diet. In return, you’ll gain a loyal and kind friend who’s eagerly waiting for his own home. Due to the undetermined cause of his dermatitis, Tay falls into the category of special dogs. We’re looking for a loving family or a foster caregiver to help with his care and support his health. Estimated date of birth: May 22, 2020. Vaccinated, microchipped, and comes with a veterinary passport. Medium size. Fawn-colored coat. We provide informational support, consultations with a canine behaviorist/zoopsychologist, and advice from a veterinarian.

Київ і Київська область! Шукаємо родину! Тай не раз потрапляв до притулку на лікування. Здавалося б, після кожного курсу все налагоджувалося: шерсть відростала, шкіра загоювалася, а сам пес почувався значно краще. Але через деякий час, проблема поверталася знову. Причина – атопічний дерматит. Для собаки, який живе на вулиці, навіть поруч із людьми, що про нього дбають, це справжнє випробування. Постійний дискомфорт, свербіж, висипання та втрата шерсті значно ускладнюють життя. Після чергового лікування ми вирішили залишити Тая в притулку та дати йому шанс знайти родину. А шансів у нього багато! Тай – дуже лагідний, веселий і товариський пес. Любить людей, прогулянки та активне спілкування. Єдина особливість – йому потрібен контроль стану здоров’я та правильно підібране харчування. Натомість ви отримаєте вірного і доброго друга, який дуже чекає на свій дім. Через невиявлену причину дерматиту потрапив до категорії особливих. Шукаємо для Тайчика люблячу родину або опікуна для допомоги в його утриманні і підтримки здоров’я. Умовна дата народження 22 травня 2020 року. Вакцинований, чипований, має ветеринарний паспорт. Розмір середній. Забарвлення палеве. Надаємо інформаційну підтримку, консультацію кінолога/зоопсихолога та ветеринарного лікаря.

About Tay (Тай)

What life with Tay (Тай) looks like

Tay (Тай) is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Dobri Ruky in Kyiv.

An 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" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇺🇦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 Tay (Тай), answered.

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