Adi

Male · Adult · 6 years

Adi is a true treasure in a dog's fur – a big, beautiful and extremely gentle guy with a heart on his sleeve. He greets every person with a joyful hug and a look that can disarm even the hardest heart. Just one of his looks makes you feel that he is saying: "I trust you. I want to be close to you." His trust touches even more when we remember how he arrived at us – extremely thin, sick, with a tired body, yet with a soul that did not give in to hopelessness and despair. Today, thanks to care and treatment, Adi is returning to health - stronger each day, happier and more and more ready for a new life. He is about 5 years old, so there is still a lot of time ahead of him. He is curious about the world and thirsty for contact with people. Walks with Adim are pure pleasure - he walks beautifully on a leash, loves to sniff and discover new smells, and comes running for a dose of pats and treats when called. Dogs bark a bit loudly, but we believe it will be easier for him to find canine friends outside the animal shelter. For now, he will best fit in a home as an only dog. We are looking for people who will love Adim just as he is - a big dog with a huge heart. Ideally a house without many stairs or an apartment with an elevator. People ready to take care of his health and provide him with a sense of security. Adi dreams of a family of his own that will allow him to forget his bad past and show him how beautiful life can be by a person's side. In return, he will give himself completely - and become your greatest, most loyal friend.

Adi to prawdziwy skarb w psim futrze – duży, piękny i niezwykle czuły chłopak o sercu na dłoni. Każdego człowieka wita radosnym przytulasem i spojrzeniem, które potrafi rozbroić nawet najtwardsze serce. Wystarczy jedno jego spojrzenie, by poczuć, że mówi: „Ufam Ci. Chcę być blisko Ciebie.” Jego zaufanie wzrusza jeszcze bardziej, gdy pamiętamy, w jakim stanie do nas trafił – skrajnie wychudzony, schorowany, z ciałem wycieńczonym, a mimo to z duszą, która nie poddała się beznadziei i rozpaczy. Dziś, dzięki trosce i leczeniu, Adi wraca do zdrowia – z każdym dniem silniejszy, radośniejszy i coraz bardziej gotowy na nowe życie. Ma około 5 lat, więc jeszcze sporo czasu przed nim. Jest ciekawy świata i spragniony kontaktu z człowiekiem. Spacery z Adim to czysta przyjemność – pięknie chodzi na smyczy, uwielbia węszyć i odkrywać nowe zapachy, a na zawołanie przybiega po porcję głasków i mizianek. Psy mija trochę głośno, ale wierzymy, że poza schroniskiem łatwiej będzie mu znaleźć psich przyjaciół. Póki co najlepiej odnajdzie się w domu jako jedynak. Szukamy dla Adiego ludzi, którzy pokochają go takim, jakim jest – dużym psem z ogromnym sercem. Najlepiej domu bez wielu schodów lub w mieszkaniu z windą. Osób gotowych zadbać o jego zdrowie i zapewnić mu poczucie bezpieczeństwa. Adi marzy o własnej rodzinie, która pozwoli mu zapomnieć o złej przeszłości i pokaże, jak piękne może być życie u boku człowieka. W zamian odda całego siebie – i stanie się Twoim największym, wiernym przyjacielem. Wioletta 605264143 Marcin 502-712-256

About Adi

What life with Adi looks like

Adi is a large adult dog waiting at Schronisko Na Paluchu in Warsaw.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

Note from the shelter: Recovering from previous health issues, needs ongoing care

🇵🇱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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Adi, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Adi?
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 Adi on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Adi 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 Adi 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 Adi 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 Adi 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.
