Bolo

Mixed Breed · Male

Bolo is looking for a foster home. Details of the foster home will be determined with the office during meetings. Temperament: Bolo came to the animal shelter at the end of January. At first, he didn't trust anyone, possibly because of pain related to an injury of the hind leg. He had orthopedic surgery and it's visible that he felt great relief. Initially shy, but over time he started to run in fifth gear and he has to be slowed down during walks to properly load the operated leg. We are urgently looking for a home for Bolus, which will be able to train with him (we will show what and how) and take him for physiotherapy to a specialist, to help him return to full fitness. Health status and recovery plan will be presented in detail to people interested in taking care of Bolo, during a conversation with the veterinarian at the animal shelter. Bolo really likes female dogs. He reacts selectively to males. It seems he is positively disposed towards cats. He loves soft blankets. To people he trusts, he is very friendly, happily cuddles and enjoys the presence of a person, but he can also take care of himself nicely, he is not pushy.

Bolo szuka domu tymczasowego. Szczegóły domu tymczasowego będą ustalane z biurem w czasie zapoznań. Usposobienie: Bolo trafił do schroniska pod koniec stycznia. Na początku nikomu nie ufał, być może powodem tego zachowania był ból związany z urazem tylnej łapy. Przeszedł operację ortopedyczną i widać po nim, że poczuł ogromną ulgę. Początkowo nieśmiało, ale z czasem włączył piąty bieg i trzeba go wręcz spowalniać na spacerach, by prawidłowo obciążał operowaną łapę. PILNIE szukamy dla Bolusia domu, który będzie mógł ćwiczyć z nim (pokażemy co i jak) i zabierać go na fizjoterapię do specialisty, by pomóc mu wrócić do pełnej sprawności. Stan zdrowia i plan rekonwalescencji zostanie szczegółowo przedstawiony osobom zainteresowanym opieką nad Bolo, podczas rozmowy z lekarzem w schronisku. Bolo bardzo lubi suczki. Na samców reaguje wybiórczo. Wydaje się być pozytywnie nastawiony do kotów. Bardzo lubi mięciutkie kocyki. Do osób, którym ufa jest nastawiony bardzo przyjaźnie, chętnie się przytula i cieszy się z obecności człowieka, ale potrafi też ładnie zająć się sobą, nie jest nachalny.

About Bolo

What life with Bolo looks like

Bolo is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Poznaniu in Poznan.

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 Bolo, answered.

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