Yunkay (Юнкай)

Mixed Breed · Male

We are looking for a family! Over a year in a family and back to the animal shelter. Should the dog be blamed for not being loved? Should the dog be blamed for not being a friend to someone but just a yard dog that failed to meet expectations? Should the dog be blamed because for some people, "a dog should" only because she was placed in a kennel run? Junkey was happy to see people he hadn't seen in a year. He sang, kissed, and climbed on people to hug. It felt as if he had been on deployment and was finally back. One can't say he was treated badly. He grew through a lack of movement, attention, and interaction with a human. Dogs don't need much. But Junkey, unfortunately, didn't get even that minimum. Why do people not understand that a dog is not a toy or a security device and that a social being needs attention, not just a bowl of food. So, Junkey is waiting for a family again. Yes, the chances are slim, but we believe that Junkey will be noticed by a person for whom Junkey will not be "just a dog that should." Date of birth: February 1, 2017. Vaccinated, microchipped, has a veterinary veterinary passport. Size: large, 60 cm at shoulder height. Coat color: black with a tan undercoat.

Шукаємо родину! Півтора року в родині і знову притулок. Чи винен пес в тому, що його не любили? Чи винен в тому, що для когось він не був другом, а тільки собакою для двору, яка не виправдала очікування? Чи винна собака, що для деяких людей “собака повинна” тільки тому, що її посадили у вольєр? Юнкай так радів людям, яких не бачив півтори року. Співав, облизував, залазив на руки обійматись. Таке відчуття, ніби він був у відрядженні і ось, нарешті повернувся. Не Можна сказати, що з ним погано поводились. Він розтовстів через брак руху, уваги та взаємодії з людиною. Собаці не потрібно багато. Але і того мінімуму, що потрібно було Юнкаю, на жаль, він не отримував( Чому люди не розуміють, що собака – то не іграшка і не охоронний девайс і, що соціальній істоті потрібна увага, а не тільки миска каші. Отже, Юнкай знову чекає на родину. Так, вочевидь шансів замало, але ми віримо, що його помітить людина, для якої Юнкай не буде “просто собакою яка повинна…” Умовна дата народження 01 лютого 2017 року. Вакцинований, чипований, має ветеринарний паспорт. Розмір великий, 60 см в холці. Забарвлення чорне з підпалом. Надаємо інформаційну підтримку, консультацію кінолога/зоопсихолога та ветеринарного лікаря.

About Yunkay (Юнкай)

What life with Yunkay (Юнкай) looks like

Yunkay (Юнкай) is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Dobri Ruky in Kyiv.

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 Yunkay (Юнкай), answered.

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