Tina (Тіна)

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 9 years

Hello, my name is Tina, and I am an ordinary dog that very few notice. I am not a little puppy, not purebred, and also black (they say that black dogs are the invisible ones of shelters). But I am full of faith that I will still find my family. My home was once in Khersonshchyna, where I lived with my family. My previous people did not want to sterilize me, thinking it was harmful and unnecessary. So I gave birth to puppies, which my people drowned and just threw out into the cold, despite how hard I cried. One day, when I gave birth again, my owner took my puppies to the forest, and beat me, tied me to a car and dragged me along the road until I had bloody wounds. Fortunately, when he stopped, people ran up to us, saved me and took me to the clinic. From there I ended up with volunteers, then to Kyiv. Despite everything, I know that not all people are bad, and I really want to find those who will love me and accept me into their family. Where are you?

Привіт, мене звати Тіна, і я звичайнісінька собака, яку мало хто помічає. Я не маленьке цуценятко, не породиста, та ще й чорна (кажуть, що чорні собаки - це невидимки притулків). Але я сповнена віри в те, що ще знайду свою родину. Мій дім колись був на Херсонщині, де я жила з родиною. Мої тодішні люди не хотіли стерилізувати мене, вважаючи, що це шкідливо і непотрібно. Тому я народжувала цуценят, яких мої люди топили і просто виносили на мороз, попри те, як сильно я плакала. Якось, коли я знову народила, мій хазяїн вивіз моїх діточок в ліс, а мене побив, прив'язав до машини і тягнув по дорозі, поки у мене не з'явились криваві рани. На щастя, коли він зупинився, до нас підбігли люди, які врятували мене і відвезли в клініку. А звідти я потрапила до волонтерів, потім до Києва. Попри все, я знаю, що не всі люди погані, і дуже хочу знайти тих, хто буде мене любити і прийме в свою родину. Де ж ви?

About Tina (Тіна)

What life with Tina (Тіна) looks like

Tina (Тіна) is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Happy Paw Kyiv in Ukraine.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇺🇦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 Tina (Тіна), answered.

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