Yasha (Яша)

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 6 years

KYIV and KYIV REGION! We met him under very difficult circumstances. He was taken to the animal shelter for treatment. No one knew what was wrong with him, but the dog could not walk. No, he could not just walk, he could not move, raise his head, barely ate... Unfavorable diagnoses kept changing. No one gave him a chance to live. Specialists shrugged their hands and put a cross on a rather young dog. Time passed, and everyone became attached to the special lying down Yashа, who required a lot of attention, time and strength. But, as they say, care and love create miracles! Our doctors did not give up despite unfavorable forecasts. Exercises, massage, communication, love! And the lying dog stood up. Then the first steps, uncertain, but so important. Now Yasha walks. Quite spoiled, our dog, who smiles at all guests and demands treats. Yasha has cardiomegaly and needs Pimobendan for life, this is quite an expensive drug. Pimobendan for dogs is a veterinary drug used to treat heart failure, in particular, caused by myxomatous mitral valve disease or dilated cardiomyopathy. It improves heart function, increasing the strength of cardiac muscle contraction and dilating blood vessels. Yasha is vaccinated, has a veterinary passport.

Київ і Київська область! Ми познайомились з ним при дуже важких обставинах. Він потрапив у притулок на лікування. Ніхто не знав, що з ним, але пес не міг ходити. Ні, він не просто не міг ходити, він не міг рухатись, підіймати голову, ледь їв... Невтішні діагнози змінювали один одного. Шансів на життя не давав ніхто. Спеціалісти розводили руками і ставили хрест на доволі молодому псові. Йшов час, всі прив’язались до особливого лежачого Яші, який вимагав багато уваги, часу та сил. Але, як то кажуть, турбота і любов творять дива! Наші лікарі не здавались попри невтішні прогнози. Вправи, масажі, спілкування, любов! І лежачій пес - встав. Потім перші кроки, невпевнені, але такі важливі. Зараз Яша ходить. Доволі розбалуваний вийшов у нас пес, який посміхається всім гостям і вимагає смаколики) У Яші кардіомегалія і йому потрібен пімобендан пожиттєво, це доволі дорогий препарат. Пімобендан для собак - це ветеринарний препарат, який використовується для лікування серцевої недостатності, зокрема, спричиненої міксоматозною хворобою мітрального клапана або дилатаційною кардіоміопатією. Він покращує роботу серця, збільшуючи силу скорочення серцевого м'яза та розширює судини. Яша вакцинований, має ветеринарний паспорт. Надаємо інформаційну підтримку, консультацію кінолога/зоопсихолога та ветеринарного лікаря.

About Yasha (Яша)

What life with Yasha (Яша) looks like

Yasha (Яша) is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Happy Paw Kyiv Oblast in Ukraine.

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 Ukraine

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 Yasha (Яша), answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Yasha (Яша)?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Happy Paw Kyiv Oblast handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Yasha (Яша) on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Yasha (Яша) if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Happy Paw Kyiv Oblast 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Yasha (Яша) 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 Yasha (Яша) 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 Happy Paw Kyiv Oblast early rather than rehoming privately; they know Yasha (Яша) 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 (UK). 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.
