Adopt Bernard

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

Bernard came to us on 16.08.2024. He had been wandering for a while on Bernardynka in Konin. He is a very gentle and affectionate dog. Longing for tenderness, he enjoys every moment spent with a person. He gladly goes for walks. He is lively and full of life. He knows basic commands. He also gets along with other dogs. Bernard is already neutered. He is waiting for a lady or gentleman who will shower him with an ocean of love. Say whatever you want, but you can't say no to that look.

Bernard trafił do nas 16.08.2024r. Błąkał się od dłuższego czasu na Bernardynce w Koninie. Jest bardzo łagodnym i uczuciowym psem. Spragniony czułości cieszy się z każdej chwili spędzonej z człowiekiem. Chętnie wychodzi na spacerki. Jest żywiołowy i pełen życia. Zna podstawowe komendy. Dogaduje się także z innymi czworonogami. Bernard jest już wykastrowany. Czeka na Pańcia lub Pańcię, którzy obdarzą go morzem miłości. Mówcie, co chcecie, ale temu spojrzeniu się nie odmawia.

About Bernard

What life with Bernard looks like

Bernard is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko Konin in Poland.

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 Bernard, answered.

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