Bailey

Male · Adult · 6 years

Bailey had a difficult start at the shelter - he was afraid of us, and we of him. Remarkably, over time he proved to be pleasant, gentle, rational and devoted. His eyes, once filled with sadness, are now 'Disney-like' - as if made to tell stories without words. Bailey is calm, unobtrusive, with refined manners. He loves walks at a tourist-philosopher pace, preferably with dog company. His calm energy excellently influences other dogs. This balanced temperament doesn't prevent him from occasionally getting playful - jumps and teasing. He needs experienced guardians with large dog experience, understanding dog communication, and able to provide proper conditions: house with garden access, quiet resting place, regular walks in interesting areas, good diet and supplements. Positive with dogs, interested but calm with cats, suitable for children over 15 years.

PL·Show original

Bailey jest psem, z którym można wieść fajne, wyluzowane życie. Jest spokojny, pogodny, przywiązany do swoich ludzi i ma zdrowy dystans do świata. To jeszcze młody, sześcioletni pies ze starą duszą, który ceni sobie stabilność i przewidywalność. Do swoich ludzi jest subtelny, wyważony, ale otwarty na odrobinę szaleństwa. Ma własne zdanie, ale jest gotowy na ustępstwa dla dobra relacji. Chce uczestniczyć w życiu swoich bliskich i mieć przy tym przestrzeń na własne sprawy. Bailey zna domowe życie i zdecydowanie chce do niego wrócić. Uwielbia wszelkie pomieszczenia, zagląda do biura adopcji, gabinetów i magazynów, gdzie sprawdza, czy ktoś ukrył dla niego jakieś skarby. Szanuje swoje rzeczy i niczego nie niszczy. Jest też ciekawym świata turystą-filozofem. Lubi długie, nieśpieszne spacery, łąki, poznawanie nowych miejsc i wycieczki samochodem, do którego wskakuje, jak by czekała go przygoda życia. Przy nim nie trzeba jednak ciągle lustrować otoczenia. Dobrze dogaduje się z psami, a jego dobra energia działa na inne czworonogi kojąco. Ze znajomymi psami lubi wspólnie spacerować i podejrzewamy, że w swobodnych warunkach miałby również ochotę na zabawę. W schronisku Bailey sprawia trochę wrażenie introwertyka. Na zewnątrz wyważony, nie epatuje nastrojami, wiele emocji zachowuje dla siebie i przeżywa po swojemu. Wobec obcych ludzi jest ostrożny i nieco zdystansowany. Zaufanie buduje krok po kroku, ale to powolne tempo zapowiada stabilną i przyjemną relację. - Usposobienie: spokojny, nienachalny, nieco zdystansowany wobec obcych - Stosunek do dzieci: raczej nastolatki - Do psów: pozytywny, asertywny - Do kotów: zainteresowany, ale spokojny - Zamieszkanie: dom z ogrodem Katarzyna 608 616 990 Agnieszka 693-141-535 Aleksandra 697 697 724

About Bailey

What life with Bailey looks like

Bailey is a extra-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: Fearful of baths, needs patient handling

🇵🇱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 Bailey, answered.

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