Valencia

Female

Happy and lively Valencia is looking for her own active home. The black-and-white and compactly sized Valencia is a young, very sociable and people-loving female dog who enjoys doing things together and wants to be involved in everyday activities. Energetic Valencia loves playing and curiously gets to know new things. Her kind nature makes her a nice companion who needs closeness and shared activities with her human. She seems to get along well with other dogs. Valencia's beautiful, long coat requires regular care.

FI·Show original

Iloinen ja reipas Valencia etsii omaa aktiivista kotiaan. Mustavalkoinen ja kompaktin kokoinen Valencia on nuori, hyvin seurallinen ja ihmisistä innostuva koiraneiti, joka nauttii yhdessä tekemisestä ja haluaa olla mukana arjen touhuissa. Energinen Valencia rakastaa leikkiä ja tutustuu uteliaasti uusiin asioihin. Kiltti luonne tekee siitä mukavan seuralaisen, joka kaipaa läheisyyttä ja yhteistä tekemistä oman ihmisensä kanssa. Muiden koirien kanssa Valencia vaikuttaa tulevan toimeen hyvin. Valencian kaunis, pitkä turkki vaatii säännöllistä huolenpitoa.

About Valencia

What life with Valencia looks like

Valencia is a small adult dog waiting at HESY in Helsinki.

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 Finland

Finnish shelters require a home visit and an adoption contract. Animals are vetted; the EU pet passport covers cross-border travel within the bloc.

Frequently asked

Adopting Valencia, answered.

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