Adopt Ufo

Mixed Breed · Male

Ufo Hello, I'm Ufo! I'm about 1 year old and a spayed Golden Retriever. My name is so fancy that it seems like I came from space, but my paws are always firmly on the ground — unless someone calls me! Because when someone says "come," I run to them; if there's food, I fly like a rocket! 🚀 I love spending time with people. We can play games, go for walks, learn commands... I can do whatever you want. Especially if there's a treat or pet food involved, all thoughts in my head disappear, and I just listen to you. I don't have a home yet, but I have a big heart, an open mind, and loving paws. Can you give me a place where I can say "home"?

Ufo Merhaba, ben Ufo! Yaklaşık 1 yaşında kısır bir Golden Retriever’ım. Adım uzaydan gelse de ayaklarım yere sağlam basar — tabii biri beni çağırmadıysa! Çünkü biri “gel” dediğinde koşa koşa gelirim; mama varsa roket gibi! 🚀 İnsanlarla vakit geçirmeye bayılıyorum. Birlikte oyun oynamak, yürüyüşe çıkmak, komut öğrenmek… Ne isterseniz yaparım. Özellikle ödül maması varsa, aklımdaki her şey silinir, sadece sizi dinlerim. Henüz bir yuvam yok ama kocaman bir kalbim, öğrenmeye açık bir kafam, sevgi dolu patilerim var. Bana “evim” diyebileceğim bir yer verir misin? Eğitim Detayları Tasma ile yürüme Otur ve yat komutları Şu An Nerede İstanbul-Veteriner Kliniği Sahiplen

About Ufo

What life with Ufo looks like

Ufo is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at SemtPati Vakfı — İstanbul in Turkey.

An 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 Turkey

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 Ufo, answered.

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