Borys

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 5 months

It's unbelievable that in the 21st century animals are still living in such conditions. A meter-long chain fastened around his neck and attached so high that he couldn't even step on the grass. Instead, concrete, trash, and injured, oozing paws. Man took everything away from him... Fortunately, this nightmare is over. Today he is safe 🥹 We can't wait for the day when chains will cease to exist and no dog will have to spend a single day of their life on them ❤️ Here he got the name Boris and the chance for a new, better life ☺️

Jak to możliwe, że w XXI wieku zwierzęta wciąż żyją w takich warunkach? Metrowy łańcuch zapięty na szyi i przypięty tak wysoko, że nie mógł on nawet swobodnie zejść na trawę. Zamiast tego - beton, śmieci i poranione, ropiejące łapy. Człowiek odebrał mu wszystko… Na szczęście ten koszmar się już skończył. Dziś jest bezpieczny 🥹 Nie możemy doczekać się dnia, w którym łańcuchy przestaną istnieć, a żaden pies nie będzie musiał spędzić na nich ani jednego dnia swojego życia ❤️ U nas dostał na imię Borys i szanse na nowe, lepsze życie ☺️

About Borys

What life with Borys looks like

Borys is a large puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Fundacja Puszatek in Warszawa.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇵🇱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 Puszatek 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 Puszatek 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 Puszatek 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.
