Corina
Sex: female
Age: born around march 15th 2013
Neutered: no
Size: medium to large
In the shelter since: 01-06-2013
Some things were meant to be, Corina happened to be in the right place, at the right time. In Stavroulas local town Livadia, there is a restaurant quite near the main road, where people sit outside to eat, drink and generally enjoy life. A couple of days ago when Stavroula was on her way to the vet with a car full of dogs, she noticed a little dog sitting outside the restaurant, leaning against the wall, head bowed and looking sad and dejected. No one was noticing the pup, and it might just as well have been invisible, as everyone carried on eating, drinking and not noticing a small hungry, scared puppy right there in their midst. As the car was full and Stavroula was on her way to the vets she could do nothing at that time. Yesterday she couldn't get the pup out of her mind, and so went back to see if she could find it. she did find the little soul under a car, after a while the pup eventually let her pick it up. It was weak and hungry. Now "it" has a name - Corina - and back at Stavroulas place Corina has worked magic, the two tiny puppies who were crying for there mum, have suddenly become angels, calm and contented, with Corina in the same doggy bed they sleep happily!

You are interested in this dog? You would like some more information?
Be aware of the fact that the information is based on where our dogs are staying right now, which is the shelter. It could be in a kennel, it could be on a terrain. Usually we do not know very much of the dogs.
FAQ is 'can this dog be with children?' And 'how is this dog with cats?' Or 'can the dog go for a ride in the car?', these are all questions which are being answered from this situation and this is not easy to answer.
Being nice with children in the shelter is a whole lot different than being together with children for 24 hours a day.
If a dog doesn't chase cats, it means they don't chase cats there. Being nice with the other dogs is also in this situation in the shelter. This basically means that there is a big possibility that a dog can learn to live with children, cats and other dogs. But people must be willing to teach the dog and train him/her.
Children can be best fiends with dogs but it doesn't go all naturally. Both dog and child will have to learn this. Small children and dogs don't understand each other: like a child pulls the dog's tail, hurts the dog and starts smiling, dog makes a play bow and scares the child and the child cries.
This means parents have a job and responsibility in this: teach the child to respect the dog, as living sentient being and not as a toy!
More important is to know if the dog is looking for contact with people, has a bonding with people. You must know that most of our dogs have been under a lot of stress. They spend most of the day with other dogs, and over all they will probably know better to communicate with dogs than with people.
For the happiness of these dogs there are some essentials which are rest, safety, being clear and a reference, like another dog or human.
Be aware the dog may not be potty trained.
A dog doesn't talk but he does communicate through his body. And if we humans are able to understand him, it will save a lot of frustration. A very good book to learn about dog body language is 'Calming signals' by Turid Rugaas.
A dog learns and learns through his entire life. It is up to us to teach him.
Be respectful to your dog and he will be respectful to you. Be patient and let him be dog. Realize that the dogs observes you and sees everything. Learn to understand your dog. And if your dog does something wrong to you, think for yourself and try to figure out which signals you were giving him. A dog is what you make of it.
Whenerver you decide to adopt one of our dogs, we can't say in advance when the dog will be coming. Of course we try to make this happen as fast as possible, but there are different factors which we are depending on.
