Baker

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Check This Out! :) Hello! I am a medium sized, older dog, I arrived at the animal shelter on August 11, 2018 from Krakowska Street. I was well-groomed and even had a chip, unfortunately, in no database, the staff could not find my number. At first I was very stressed. On one hand I wanted to make contact with the caregivers, on the other hand I had great fears, whether they would really, nothing would happen to me. I still have a lot of fears, and my trust has to be earned. I get along well with dogs, mainly of the opposite sex. I love walks, even though many things scare me during them, for example loud and big vehicles or noisy/crying children. Then the support of another dog helps me a lot. Sometimes I defend a person I like from others, in my perception of threats, for example, when another person makes a sudden movement. I also have a problem with defending my bowl, even if it is empty. I require constant work, preferably under the supervision of a canine behaviorist. For a person I already know, I am really a sweet dog! I love affection and allow a lot. I really like walks, running, playtime. I perform basic commands and quickly learn new ones. I'm looking for a home without small children, with an experienced person who will be able to handle such a rascal as me. I am a great lifeguard for pool balls !!!!I have current vaccination, deworming. I was also chipped, and also neutered. <------ Check This Out!

<--- Zajrzyj Tu! :)Cześć! Jestem średniej wielkości, starszym już psiakiem, trafiłem do schroniska 11 sierpnia 2018 roku z ul. Krakowskiej. Byłem zadbany i nawet zaczipowany, niestety w żadnej bazie, pracownicy nie potrafili odnaleźć mojego numeru. Na początku byłem mocno zestresowany. Z jednej strony chciałem nawiązać kontakt z opiekunami, a z drugiej strony miałem duże obawy, czy oby na pewno, nic mi nie grozi. Nadal mam bardzo dużo lęków, a na moje zaufanie trzeba sobie zapracować. Z psami dogaduję się dobrze, głównie płci przeciwnej. Uwielbiam spacery, mimo że jeszcze wiele rzeczy mnie na nich przeraża, np. głośne i duże pojazdy lub hałasujące/krzyczące dzieci. Bardzo pomaga mi wtedy wsparcie drugiego psa. Zdarza mi się bronić osobę, którą bardzo lubię przed innymi, w moim odczuciu zagrożeniami, np. w momencie wykonania gwałtownego ruchu przez innego człowieka. Mam również problem z bronieniem miski, nawet jak jest pusta. Wymagam ciągłej pracy, najlepiej pod okiem psiego behawiorysty. Dla osoby, którą już znam, jestem naprawdę kochanym psem! Uwielbiam pieszczoty i pozwalam na wiele. Bardzo lubię spacery, bieganie, zabawy. Wykonuję podstawowe komendy i szybko uczę się nowych. Szukam domu bez małych dzieci, u osoby doświadczonej, która będzie umiała sobie poradzić, z takim łobuziakiem, jak ja. Jestem świetnym ratownikiem tonących w baseniku piłek ????Posiadam aktualne szczepienie, odrobaczenie. Zostałem również zaczipowany, a także wykastrowany. <------ Zajrzyj tu!

About Baker

What life with Baker looks like

Baker is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko Zabrze in Zabrze.

An 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.

🇵🇱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 Baker, answered.

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