Vlasta

Female · Puppy · 3 months

Age: 6 years Weight: 3 kg We are looking for a home for little Vlasta, who we rescued from poor conditions. She lived in a pack of other dogs, so she is used to dog company. Here, she has also found her best friend - a Chihuahua, with whom she forms a truly inseparable duo. The girls can go to adoption together. Vlasta is not a dog that jumps into your arms right away. When she came to us, she was very fearful and could even bite out of fear. However, we gradually gained her trust and today she is a wonderful, kind and cute little dog. The new owner just needs to count on the fact that she will need some time to get used to him and earn his trust. Vlasta is spayed and vaccinated. Unfortunately, she was diagnosed with Addison's disease, so she must take medication for the rest of her life. Otherwise, she is cheerful and content and the disease does not prevent her from enjoying her dog life. We are looking for a quiet home for her, ideally without young children and away from the hustle and bustle of the big city. Vlasta is not fully socialized and daily walks in a busy urban environment could be stressful for her. She is slowly learning on a leash and making progress. Vlasta needs nothing more than a patient person, a quiet environment and time to find out that she doesn't have to be afraid anymore. We are looking for temporary care with subsequent adoption. If Vlasta interests you, please fill out the adoption questionnaire and we will contact you. Note: The description of the dog is based on his behavior shortly after his arrival at the shelter. We try to include dogs in the offer as soon as possible so they can start looking for a new home as soon as possible. However, the dog's behavior may change over time while staying with us, so we try to update the information and descriptions on an ongoing basis. However, our time is limited, so the descriptions may not always reflect the current situation immediately. Please also keep in mind that the dog's behavior may be different in a home environment than in a shelter.

Věk: 6 let Váha: 3 kg Hledáme domov pro malinkou Vlastu, kterou jsme získali ze špatných podmínek. Žila ve smečce dalších psů, takže na psí společnost je zvyklá. U nás si navíc našla nejlepší kamarádku – čivavu, se kterou tvoří opravdu nerozlučnou dvojku. Holky mohou jít do adopce i společně. Vlasta není pejsek, který vám hned skočí do náruče. Když k nám přišla, byla velmi bojácná a ze strachu dokázala i kousnout. Postupně jsme si ale získali její důvěru a dnes je z ní úžasná, milá a roztomilá psí holčička. Nový páníček jen musí počítat s tím, že si na něj bude potřebovat chvíli zvykat a důvěru si bude muset zasloužit. Vlasta je kastrovaná a očkovaná. Bohužel jí byla diagnostikována Addisonova choroba, takže musí doživotně užívat léky. Jinak je ale veselá a spokojená a nemoc jí nebrání užívat si psí život. Hledáme pro ni především klidný domov, ideálně bez malých dětí a mimo ruch velkého města. Vlasta není úplně socializovaná a každodenní procházky v rušném městském prostředí by pro ni mohly být spíše stresující. Na vodítku už se pomalu učí a dělá pokroky. Vlasta nepotřebuje nic víc než trpělivého člověka, klidné prostředí a čas, aby mohla zjistit, že už se nemusí bát. Hledáme pro ni dočasnou péči s následnou adopcí. Pokud vás Vlasta zaujala, prosíme o vyplnění adopčního dotazníku a my vás budeme zpětně kontaktovat. Upozornění: Popis psa vychází z jeho chování krátce po přijetí do útulku. Snažíme se psy co nejdříve zařazovat do nabídky, aby mohli co nejrychleji začít hledat nový domov. Chování psa se však může během pobytu u nás postupně měnit, proto se snažíme informace i popisky průběžně aktualizovat. Naše časové možnosti jsou však omezené, takže popisky nemusí vždy okamžitě odrážet aktuální stav. Mějte prosím také na paměti, že chování psa může být jiné v domácím prostředí než v útulku.

About Vlasta

What life with Vlasta looks like

Vlasta is a small puppy/kitten dog waiting at Útulek Dogsy in Czech Republic.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇨🇿Adopting from Czech Republic

Czech shelters (útulky) include sterilization, vaccinations, and microchip ID. The adopter signs a written contract (smlouva) — the shelter may follow up to verify wellbeing.

Frequently asked

Adopting Vlasta, answered.

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