How do I contact the shelter about Borsuk?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Schronisko Na Paluchu handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Borsuk on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Borsuk if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Schronisko Na Paluchu 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 Borsuk 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 Borsuk 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 Schronisko Na Paluchu early rather than rehoming privately; they know Borsuk 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 (PL). 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.

Borsuk

Male · Young · 2 years

This beautiful striped gentleman with a gloomy look and a body as supple as a spring is none other than Borsuk himself! He has an energetic walk, unmatched confidence in the animal shelter and a sense of fantasticness :D From the very first moments on the run, Borsuk makes an impression on female dog with a similar temperament - for fun he plays, chases, and when they get bored - he goes sniffing around his own business. Borsuk was apparently found tied up in the park - someone abandoned him for reasons unknown to us. In the animal shelter it's currently hard for him to find his way, but we increasingly see his cheerful and hopeful face. He can take care of himself, which is actually a source of laughter, because really, Borsuczek has a sense of humor, and recently he's also interested in various objects, such as balls, chew toys, blankets - he carefully selects them from the toy basket, looks at them and arranges them in one place in the middle of the run. It seems he has a knack for collecting ;) Borsuk has been with us for a short time and we can see that he needs more time to relax and open up to new acquaintances. All the limitations, which of course are plenty in the animal shelter, are difficult for him to accept, but over time, Borsuczek can make compromises. For this reason, it's best if he finds a home where he can calmly get to know the new environment and his people. For now, we're looking for a home with a garden and a caregiver who has already had dogs, is a patient but also firm person. Learn more here:

Ten piękny pręgowany jegomość o chmurnym spojrzeniu i ciele gibkim jak sprężyna to nikt inny jak Borsuk we własnej osobie! Cechuje go energiczny chód, niespotykana w schronisku pewność siebie i poczucie fantastyczności :D Od pierwszych chwil na wybiegu Borsuk robi wrażenie na suczkach o podobnym temperamencie - dla rozrywki pokica, pogania, a kiedy już się znudzą - idzie węszyć w swoich sprawach. Borsuk podobno został znaleziony przywiązany w parku - ktoś porzucił go z nieznanych nam powodów. W schronisku póki co ciężko mu się odnaleźć, ale coraz częściej widzimy jego pyszczek wesoły i pełen nadziei. Potrafi zająć się sam sobą, co zresztą stanowi źródło śmiechu, bo naprawdę Borsuczek ma poczucie humoru, a ostatnio interesują go też przeróżne przedmioty, tj. jak piłki, szarpaczki, kocyki - skrupulatnie je wybiera z kosza z zabawkami, ogląda i składuje w jednym miejscu na środku wybiegu. Najwyraźniej ma smykałkę do kolekcjonowania ;) Borsuk jest z nami od niedawna i widzimy, że potrzebuje więcej czasu, by się rozluźnić i otworzyć na nowe znajomości. Wszelkie ograniczenia, których przecież w schronisku niemało, są dla niego trudne do zaakceptowania, ale z czasem Borsuczek potrafi iść na kompromisy. Z tego powodu najlepiej, by znalazł dom, w którym będzie mógł w spokoju poznawać nowe środowisko i swoich ludzi. Na ten moment szukamy dla niego domu z ogrodem oraz opiekuna, który już miał psy, jest osobą cierpliwą, ale i stanowczą.

About Borsuk

What life with Borsuk looks like

Borsuk is a medium-sized young adult dog waiting at Schronisko Na Paluchu in Warsaw.

An young 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.

Note from the shelter: Needs garden space and patient owner due to stress from confinement

🇵🇱Adopting from Poland

Polish shelters maintain established transport routes to Germany, Netherlands, Austria, and Sweden. Animals leave sterilized and chipped. Adoption fees are typically lower than in Western Europe (often €50–€150) but adopters cover transport.
