BAD

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 13 years

Born in 2013, BAD, Badzio, Badzioszek - a tiny puppy with unused energy. Loves long walks, sniffing, tracking deer and rabbit trails, exploring burrows, piles of branches and other forest corners during walks. Called, he comes running, sniffs the treat and then dashes off again. Despite the high activity level, the pace of the walk is pleasant. BAD also feels comfortable in built-up and suburban areas. BAD is reserved towards new people, clearly avoiding touch, especially from above, probably due to bad experiences. Nevertheless, when he trusts someone, he clearly shows how important that person is to him. He then allows petting of the chest and belly. Putting on a leash sometimes requires patience, as excited about the anticipated walk, BAD can't stay in one place. BAD is rather positive towards other dogs, especially those of similar size, he can communicate nicely, which does not mean accepting every dog he meets. With large dogs, he may feel fear, and he doesn't tolerate cats nearby. At this stage of socialization, companionship with children, especially young ones, is not recommended. We are looking for a responsible person willing to work with a dog with an unknown past, who is ready to show him that humans can be good and mean only good things!

Rok urodzenia: 2013 Bad, Badzio, Badzioszek – malutki piesek o niespożytej energii. Uwielbia długie spacery, a podczas nich węszenie, tropienie sarnich i zajęczych ścieżek, eksplorowanie norek, stert gałęzi i innych leśnych zakamarków. Przywołany przybiega, schrupie smaczek i już pędzi dalej. Mimo dużej intensywności ruchu tempo spaceru jest przyjemne. Bad również dobrze się czuje w terenie zabudowanym, podmiejskim. Bad jest pieskiem zdystansowanym do nowych osób, zdecydowanie unika dotyku, szczególnie z góry, najprawdopodobniej ma złe doświadczenia. Niemniej, gdy już komuś zaufa, to wyraźnie okazuje, jak ważna dla niego jest ta osoba. Pozwala wtedy również na pogłaskanie klatki piersiowej i brzuszka. Założenie szelek czasami wymaga cierpliwości, bo z ekscytacji spodziewanym spacerem Bad nie potrafi ustać w miejscu. Do innych psów Bad jest nastawiony raczej pozytywnie, szczególnie podobnych do niego wielkością, potrafi się ładnie komunikować, co nie oznacza akceptacji każdego napotkanego pieska. W stosunku do dużych psów może odczuwać lęk, a kotów w bliskiej odległości nie toleruje. Na obecnym etapie socjalizacji nie jest wskazane towarzystwo dzieci, szczególnie małych. Szukamy dla Bada odpowiedzialnej osoby gotowej na pracą z psem z nieznaną przeszłością, który jest gotowy pokazać mu, że człowiek może być dobry i oznacza tylko i wyłącznie dobre rzeczy!

About BAD

What life with BAD looks like

BAD is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko dla Bezdomnych Zwierząt w Zielonej Górze in Zielona Góra.

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 BAD, answered.

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