How do I contact the shelter about Wandal?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. ÚVP Košice handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Wandal on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Wandal if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — ÚVP Košice 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 Wandal 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 Wandal 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 ÚVP Košice early rather than rehoming privately; they know Wandal 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 (SK). 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.

Wandal

Mixed Breed · Male

Wandal was found on Popradská street in Košice. After almost five months, he returned to us from adoption because he was demolishing things at home. At our shelter, Wandal has a dog bed, a mat and a mattress available, and although he destroyed the dog bed in the first days, he has been behaving very politely since then. Wandal is not a vandal! Wandal is a young, very active and playful puppy who loves movement and everything that involves him. Walks, fetching, water, stretching with toys - all of these are his favorite activities. He likes to play with other dogs and gets along very well with female dogs. He is still full of energy and ready to enjoy every day to the fullest. Wandal would be a great buddy for long walks, trips into nature or games in the garden. However, he is a dog that needs an experienced person who can properly calm him down. Not suitable for first-time dog owners. The first days at our shelter were difficult with him - he jumped extremely, bit hands and often just stood and barked at us to get attention. With patience and proper guidance, his behavior is gradually improving and each day he becomes a better and more well-mannered dog. He handles handling as well as veterinary procedures without problems.

Wandal sa našiel na ulici Popradská v Košiciach. Po takmer piatich mesiacoch sa nám vrátil z adopcie, pretože doma demoloval. U nás má Wandal k dispozícii pelech, paplón a matrace, a hoci prvé dni zničil pelech, odvtedy sa správa veľmi slušne. Nie je Wandal ako vandal! Wandal je mladý, veľmi aktívny a hravý psík, ktorý miluje pohyb a všetko, čo s ním súvisí. Venčenie, aportovanie, voda, naťahovanie s hračkami – to všetko sú jeho obľúbené aktivity. Rád sa hrá aj s inými psami a so psami aj fenkami vychádza veľmi dobre. Je stále plný energie a pripravený užiť si každý deň naplno. Wandal bude skvelý parťák na dlhé prechádzky, výlety do prírody alebo spoločné hry na záhrade. Je to však psík, ktorý potrebuje skúseného človeka, ktorý ho dokáže správne usmerniť. Nie je vhodný pre prvopsíčkarov. Prvé dni u nás v útulku boli s ním náročné – extrémne skákal, kúsal do rúk a často na nás len stál a štekal, aby upútal pozornosť. S trpezlivosťou a správnym vedením sa jeho správanie postupne zlepšuje a každým dňom sa z neho stáva lepší a vychovanejší psík. Manipuláciu aj pri veterinárnych úkonoch zvláda bez problémov.

About Wandal

What life with Wandal looks like

Wandal is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at ÚVP Košice in Slovakia.

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 Slovakia

Slovak rescue groups coordinate cross-border transport with European partners. Animals are chipped and vaccinated; sterilization is often included for adults and arranged post-adoption for puppies/kittens.
