BORYS

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

Borys is a dog of a type that recently had his own home. Unfortunately, his owner, for reasons beyond her control, can no longer care for him. As a result, Borys was taken to the shelter along with his canine companion, Bajka. Although the shelter provides him with care, Borys is definitely not the type of dog that does well with inactivity. He is a curious, energetic boy who loves people and feels great in their company. Contact with humans gives him great pleasure, and spending time together is definitely what he needs. Borys especially needs a good dose of exercise. Longer, regular walks would be a great way for him to expend his energy and satisfy his curiosity about the world. Because when walks are lacking... Borys finds his own way to keep busy. More specifically, he takes it upon himself to renovate his doghouse. Our resourceful boy is able to open the canopy of the doghouse to make his own "window on the world." It's hard to deny him creativity!

Borys to pies w typie rasy, który jeszcze niedawno miał swój własny dom. Niestety jego właścicielka z powodów, na które nie miała wpływu, nie może już dłużej się nim zajmować. W ten sposób Borys trafił do schroniska razem ze swoją psią towarzyszką – Bajką. I choć schronisko daje mu opiekę, Borys zdecydowanie nie jest typem psa, który dobrze czuje się bezczynnie. To ciekawski, energiczny chłopak, który bardzo lubi ludzi i świetnie czuje się w ich towarzystwie. Kontakt z człowiekiem sprawia mu dużą przyjemność, a wspólne spędzanie czasu zdecydowanie jest tym, czego potrzebuje. Borys szczególnie potrzebuje porządnej dawki ruchu. Dłuższe, regularne spacery byłyby dla niego świetnym sposobem na spożytkowanie energii i zaspokojenie ciekawości świata. Bo kiedy spacerów brakuje… Borys sam znajduje sobie zajęcie. A dokładniej – bierze się za remont swojej budy. Nasz pomysłowy chłopak potrafi otworzyć daszek budy, żeby zrobić sobie własne „okno na świat”. Trudno odmówić mu kreatywności!

About BORYS

What life with BORYS looks like

BORYS is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko Świdnica in Poland.

An young 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.

🇵🇱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. Schronisko Świdnica 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 — Schronisko Świdnica 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 Schronisko Świdnica 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.
