How do I contact the shelter about Brutus?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Schronisko Zabrze handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Brutus on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Brutus if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Schronisko Zabrze 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 Brutus 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 Brutus 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 Zabrze early rather than rehoming privately; they know Brutus 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.

Adopt Brutus

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Good day, my name is Brutus. I am a medium-sized dog, born around 2011. I previously lived with another dog on a plot near ul. Zmudy and ul. Okrzei. On January 8, 2023, the animal shelter staff noticed a dog tied to one of the leashes on the shelter fence. I was the second one, but I managed to free myself. After several hours, the staff noticed me circling around the place where I was tied. For the first few days I slept, we were on the feeding list at the animal shelter. I don't hide the fact that the sight of an approaching portion of food gave me great joy. I am a great companion for quiet walks. I like to go with anyone who just puts a leash on me :). Previously I lived alone in my own box, but for a long time now I have been living with my buddy. I can't say that we have great affection for each other, but we tolerate each other and there are no arguments between us. In my box I can keep it clean, I don't destroy anything. I love playing with sticks. I gladly take my medicines that I get for my heart. I have current vaccination, deworming. I was also spayed, I had the neutering procedure. I have a sick heart, so I need to take Cardisure and Polfiline, the monthly cost of treatment is 100 zł.

Dzień dobry, nazywam się Brutus. Jestem średniej wielkości psem, urodziłem się w okolicach 2011 roku. Dotychczas mieszkałem z drugim psem na działce nieopodal ul. Żmudy a ul. Okrzei. 8 stycznia 2023 roku pracownicy schroniska zauważyli psa uwiązanego na jednej ze smyczy do płotu schroniskowego. Do drugiej byłem ja, ale udało mi się uwolnić. Personel po kilku godzinach dostrzegł mnie, krążącego wokół miejsca przywiązania. Pierwsze dni przespałem, w schronisku znaleźliśmy się na liście dokarmiania. Nie ukrywam, że ogromną radość sprawiał mi widok nadchodzącej porcji jedzenia. Jestem świetnym kompanem do spokojnych spacerów. Chętnie chodzę z każdym kto tylko mnie zapnie na smycz :). Wcześniej mieszkałem sam w swoim boksie, jednak już od dłuższego czasu mieszkam wraz ze swoim kolegą. Nie mogę powiedzieć, że darzymy się wielką sympatią jednak tolerujemy się i nie mam miedzy nami kłótni. W swoim boksie potrafię zachować czystość, niczego nie niszczę. Uwielbiam bawić się patykami. Chętnie przyjmuję swoje leki, które otrzymuję na serce. Posiadam aktualne szczepienie, odrobaczenie. Zostałem również zaczipowany, jestem po zabiegu kastracji.Ma chore serce, dlatego musi dostawać Cardisure i Polfiline, miesięczny koszt leczenia 100 zł.

About Brutus

What life with Brutus looks like

Brutus is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko Zabrze in Zabrze.

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.
