How do I contact the shelter about Zachary?

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 Zachary on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Zachary 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 Zachary 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 Zachary 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 Zachary 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.

Zachary

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy

We took in Zendaya, along with her puppies Zachary and Zina, on May 22, 2026, after they were found in the Luník IX - Mašličkovo neighborhood of Košice. Zendaya has been a devoted mother to her pups, but now it's time for them to find their own loving homes. ZACHARY IS ONE OF THE RESCUED PUPPIES. Zachary is a young dog with his whole life ahead of him. He is friendly, playful and curious. Every day he discovers new things, learns about the world around him and learns to trust people. He seeks out human company and thoroughly enjoys their time together. Like any little puppy, he needs a regular routine, plenty of age-appropriate exercise and especially patient and loving guidance. Socialization, training and the time his new family devotes to him will be very important. What kind of dog he grows into depends mainly on how his future owners treat him. He has not yet fully mastered his hygiene habits, but with consistent and sensitive handling, he will gradually learn them. Zachary is looking for a home in an apartment or house with indoor access. He is suitable for people who realize that having a puppy means not only a lot of joy, but also responsibility, time, patience and daily care. Zachary is looking for a forever home - a home where he can grow up, mature alongside his people and become a beloved member of the family. VACCINATION: ongoing - expected completion August 8, 2026

Dňa 22.05.2026 sme prijali do útulku fenku Zendayu spolu so šteniatkami Zacharym a Zinou, ktoré sa našli v košickej mestskej časti Luník IX – Mašličkovo. Zendaya sa o svoje šteniatka vzorne starala a teraz prišiel čas, aby si aj oni našli svoje milujúce domovy. ZACHARY JE JEDEN ZO ZACHRÁNENÝCH ŠTENIATOK. Zachary je mladučký psík, ktorý má celý život ešte pred sebou. Je milý, hravý a zvedavý. Každý deň objavuje nové veci, spoznáva svet okolo seba a učí sa dôverovať ľuďom. Blízkosť človeka vyhľadáva a spoločné chvíle si veľmi užíva. Ako každé malé šteniatko potrebuje pravidelný režim, dostatok pohybu primeraného veku a najmä trpezlivé a láskavé vedenie. Veľmi dôležitá bude socializácia, výchova a čas, ktorý mu jeho nová rodina venuje. To, akým psíkom z neho vyrastie, bude závisieť najmä od prístupu jeho budúcich majiteľov. Hygienické návyky ešte nemá úplne zvládnuté, no pri dôslednom a citlivom prístupe sa ich bude postupne učiť. Zachary hľadá domov v byte alebo v dome s prístupom dovnútra. Je vhodný pre ľudí, ktorí si uvedomujú, že šteniatko znamená nielen veľa radosti, ale aj zodpovednosť, čas, trpezlivosť a každodennú starostlivosť. Zachary si hľadá domov navždy – domov, kde bude môcť vyrastať, dospieť po boku svojich ľudí a stať sa milovaným členom rodiny. OČKOVANIE: prebieha – predpokladané ukončenie 08.08. 2026

About Zachary

What life with Zachary looks like

Zachary is a puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at ÚVP Košice in Slovakia.

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 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.
