Afgan

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 11 years

Almost no one wants someone like him... Another shelter veteran - Afgan has been waiting for a home for 11 years. Let's find someone who can change his life. Unassuming, not standing out at first glance. In the crate he waits by the bars, looking for a leash in hands because he loves walks, treats don't interest him... he wants to leave his crate for a moment. Only outside the crate can you see how beautiful a dog he is. He has a Doberman's build, long legs, is slim and dignified. He doesn't pull on the leash, he politely goes exploring the area, sniffs, sometimes stops for pats. A bit shy with new people but not withdrawn - he just doesn't see the need to throw himself into strangers' arms. He has entered his senior years, started limping, the joints are not what they used to be... but he still has the strength for the joy of life. He really, really needs a home. He is a dog with the least chances - big and black-and-tan. Such dogs are not chosen, such dogs are avoided. It doesn't matter that he is gentle and has a wonderful character. For 11 years - since a child, because he came here at 6 months old... Neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. Gets along with female dog, with males it's different.

Takich jak On nie chce prawie nikt….. Kolejny schroniskowy weteran – Afgan czeka od 11 lat na dom. Znajdźmy kogoś kto odmieni jego życie Niepozorny, niewyróżniający się na pierwszy rzut oka niczym. W boksie czeka przy kratach, wypatruje smyczy w rękach bo kocha spacery, smaczki go nie interesują… chce opuścić swój boks choć na chwilę. Dopiero poza boksem widać, jakim jest pięknym psem. Ma budowę dobermana, dłuuuugie łapy, jest szczupły i dostojny. Nie ciągnie na smyczy, grzecznie idzie eksplorując teren, węszy, co jakiś czas zatrzymuje się na głaski. Troszkę nieśmiały do nowych osób ale nie wycofany- po prostu nie widzi potrzeby rzucania się w ramiona obcym ludziom. Wszedł w wiek seniorkowy, zaczął kuleć, stawy już nie te… ale ma jeszcze siłę na radość z życia. Bardzo, bardzo potrzebuje domu. Jest psem o najmniejszych szansach- duży i czarno-podpalany. Takich psów się nie wybiera, takie psy się omija. Na nic fakt, że jest łagodny i ma cudny charakter. Od 11 lat- od dziecka, bo trafił tu w wieku 6 miesięcy… Wykastrowany, zaszczepiony i zaczipowany.Dogaduje się z suczkami, z samcami bywa różnie. OLA 533 564 074KASIA 507 237 447

About Afgan

What life with Afgan looks like

Afgan is a large senior mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko Radom in Radom.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental 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 Afgan, answered.

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