Borys

Male

Borys’s virtual caregiver is Patrycja. Borys—a dog found in Sochaczew—is currently under our care and undergoing diagnostic testing. He has pus-filled wounds around his eyes. Borys is an approximately nine-year-old, friendly dog who still exudes energy and enthusiasm for life. At the moment, we’re working with him on leash training, as he initially approaches the leash with some hesitation. As you can see from the photos, once he’s on the leash, he’s been bribed with treats 😊—and surprisingly, he walks on it quite nicely. Borys is very friendly toward people; he squeaks to get their attention and to be petted. When he’s in the play area, he focuses on sniffing and on his caregiver, showing no interest in other dogs. Borys is truly a wonderful dog! Let’s give him the chance for a normal life and a home filled with love.

Wirtualnym opiekunem Borysa jest Patrycja. Borys- psiak znaleziony w Sochaczewie, piesek ma ropiejące rany w okolicach oczu, jest w tej chwili pod naszą opieką , oraz diagnostyką. Borys jest około dziewięcioletnim przyjacielskim pieskiem z nadal widoczną energią i zapałem do życia. Na tą chwilę pracujemy z pieskiem nad smyczą, ponieważ psiak podchodzi do niej z dystansem. Po zdjęciach można zauważyć, że piesek jest na smyczy, został przekupiony smaczkami 😊 i o dziwo bardzo ładnie na niej chodzi. Piesek w stosunku do ludzi jest bardzo przyjacielski, piszczy aby zwrócić na siebie uwagę i by być wygłaskanym. Będąc na wybiegu skupia się na węszeniu i opiekunie , nie interesuję się innymi pieskami. Borys to naprawdę świetny psiak ! Dajmy mu szansę na normalne życie i dom pełen miłości.

About Borys

What life with Borys looks like

Borys is a medium-sized adult dog waiting at Fundacja Przyjaciele Braci Mniejszych 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 Borys, answered.

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