Burbon

Male · Senior · 13 years

We present to you Burbonka, "a man with a past"... the previous owner did not care what happened to the dog and let him roam freely. Burbon did not know for 10 years what care and human love were... he learned it only in the animal shelter... Burbonek is a lovely senior who enjoys a walk together, and also loves playing with a ball, which he easily brings back on his own. He is a funny and friendly senior dog who finally got his chance. The court deprived the owner of the right to care, and after 2 years "in detention" Burbonek is finally looking for a real home! A home where he will feel like a family member who will take care of him, provide him with a sense of security and a warm corner for his old age. Burbonek has a problem with his paw, an untreated fracture that did not heal properly, but he handles this situation very well, but the future owner must be prepared for the possibility of eventual treatment. Burbon also participated in a few Adopt a Warsaw Dog events. It turned out that he did very well and was very polite. He walked nicely, greeted other dogs, did not defend his toys and fully enjoyed the new experiences. The idea to take Burbona to such an event proved excellent, we already know for sure that he is the perfect dog and the only thing he lacks is a real home and the love of his human.

Przedstawiamy Wam Burbonka, “mężczyznę z przeszłością”… były właściciel nie interesował się tym, co się dzieje z psem i puszczał go bez kontroli. Burbon przez 10 lat nie wiedział, co to opieka i miłość człowieka.. nauczył się tego dopiero w schronisku… Burbonek to uroczy senior, który cieszy się wspólnym spacerem, a także uwielbia zabawę piłeczką, która bez problemu sam przynosi. To zabawny i przyjazny psi senior, który w końcu dostał swoją szansę. Sąd pozbawił właściciela prawa do opieki i po 2 latach “odsiadki” Burbonek szuka w końcu prawdziwego domu! Domu, w którym poczuje, że jest członkiem rodziny, który o niego zadba, zapewni mu poczucie bezpieczeństwa i ciepły kąt na stare lata. Burbonek ma problem z łapką, nieleczone złamanie źle się zrosło, radzi sobie bardzo dobrze w tej sytuacji, ale przyszły właściciel musi się liczyć z koniecznością ewentualnego leczenia. Burbon wziął też udział w paru akcjach Adoptuj Warszawiaka. Okazało się, że świetnie sobie poradził i był bardzo grzeczny. Ładnie spacerował, witał się z innymi pieskami, nie bronił zabawek i w pełni korzystał z nowych doświadczeń. Pomysł, żeby zabrać Burbona na taką akcję okazał się znakomity, wiemy już teraz na pewno, że to pies idealny i jedyne czego mu brakuje to prawdziwy dom i miłość swojego człowieka.

About Burbon

What life with Burbon looks like

Burbon is a large senior dog waiting at Schronisko Na Paluchu in Warsaw.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

Note from the shelter: Leg injury from untreated fracture that healed improperly, may require future medical treatment

🇵🇱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 Burbon, answered.

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