Tikhon (Тіхон)

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 6 years

Tikhon, he became a victim of the war, he was clearly a pet and was left under shelling in Orikhiv, fighters brought him injured and it took time for him to just start coming out of the kennel and interacting with us. The dog is good, gentle, middle-aged and he probably lived on a leash because he is trained and now, for now, is also in the animal shelter during the day on a leash, at night we close him in the building. Our staff prepared a place for him, poured a concrete foundation under the kennel, so he doesn't sit in the mud and doesn't get stuck in the trees... We are preparing for vaccination and collecting money for a new kennel run, because we are absolutely against animals living on a leash. Friends, we can't do it without your support. Too much sorrow and misfortune and everyone needs help.

Тихон, він став жертвою війни, він явно був домашнім і його кинули під обстрілами в Оріхові, бійці привезли його контуженим і знадобився час, щоб він просто став виходити з будки і спілкуватися з нами. Пес добрий, лагідний, середніх років і він жив мабуть на ланцюгу бо привчений і зараз поки що теж у притулку вдень на ланцюгу, на ніч закриваємо в приміщенні. Наші робітники підготували йому місце, забетонували основу під будку, щоб не в багнюці сидів і не заплутувався в деревах... Готуємо на вакцинацію і збираємо кошти на новий вольєр, бо категорично проти життя тварин на ланцюгу. Друзі, нам не впоратися без вашої підтримки. Надто багато горя та біди і всім потрібна допомога.

About Tikhon (Тіхон)

What life with Tikhon (Тіхон) looks like

Tikhon (Тіхон) is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Happy Paw Zaporizhzhia in Ukraine.

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 Tikhon (Тіхон), answered.

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