Adopt Xena

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

Xena is a beautiful pit bull type female who was rescued from a horror yard in Split. When she arrived at the shelter, she was in a high stage of pregnancy, and soon gave birth via cesarean section to 7 beautiful puppies. All her little ones are already in their homes, and she remains alone and waiting for her chance. Xena is vaccinated, microchipped and spayed, and is still learning to walk properly on a leash. She gets along with other dogs and every day shows how willing she is to learn and progress. After everything Xena has been through, she deserves love and the security of a home.

Xena je predivna cura u tipu pit bulla koja je spašena iz horor dvorišta u Splitu. Kada je stigla u azil, bila je u visokom stupnju graviditeta, a ubrzo je carskim rezom na svijet donijela 7 predivnih štenaca. Svi njeni mališani odavno su u svojim domovima, a ona je ostala sama i čeka svoju priliku. Xena je cijepljena, čipirana i sterilizirana, a još uvijek uči pravilno šetati na povodcu. S drugim psima se slaže i svaki dan pokazuje koliko je voljna učiti i napredovati. Nakon svega što je prošla Xena zaslužuje ljubav i sigurnost doma.

About Xena

What life with Xena looks like

Xena is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Azil Dubrovnik in Croatia.

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 Croatia

Croatian shelters include sterilization, vaccinations, and microchip ID in the adoption process. Several work with Italian and German rescue networks for placements.

Frequently asked

Adopting Xena, answered.

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