How do I contact the shelter about Cygi?

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 Cygi on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Cygi 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 Cygi 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 Cygi 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 Cygi 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.

Cygi

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 7 months

At the yard, accompanied by someone he trusts, Cygi is a happy dog, but at first meeting he is very shy and scared. Until he trusts, he becomes paralyzed and doesn't want to make contact with new people, he needs time. He showed us that he is a dog who really wants to open up to new friendships, but he just doesn't know how yet. Every day we try to take small steps so that Cygi can open up to new experiences and face life with more courage. Right now we are not starting training on a leash because he is very afraid of it, so for his comfort, we give him space in our fenced Czartkowiak area. He allows people he trusts to pick him up, but he is afraid of touching new people. He doesn't react to any treats or toys. Right now he is indifferent to other dogs, similarly to cats. We are looking for a home for him where they understand the specifics of working with scared animals. Cygi in Czartki did not have any aggression incidents; he reacts to new situations by hiding in a corner. It will surely be difficult for him to find his way in a house with children right now, so we recommend him for a home with adults who will have time and will have a lot of patience in showing him the world and understanding that from the human side he can encounter much good. Weight: 9 kg Leash: no Relationship with dogs: indifferent. He was neutered, dewormed, treated for fleas, vaccinated, microchipped, registered in Safe Animal database. The dog is staying in: animal shelter Funny Pets in Czartki Czartki 49b, 98-200 Sieradz, sieradzki County, woj.

PL·Show original

Na placu w towarzystwie osoby, której ufa, jest uśmiechniętym psiakiem, ale przy pierwszym spotkaniu Cygi to bardzo wycofany i zlękniony psiak, dopóki nie zaufa, ogarnia go paraliż i nie chce nawiązywać kontaktu z nowo spotkanym człowiekiem, potrzebuje czasu. Nam dał się poznać jako psiak, który bardzo chciałby otworzyć się na nowe znajomości, ale jeszcze nie wie jak, więc każdego dnia staramy się robić mikro krok, by Cygi otworzył się na nowe i z większą odwagą podchodził do życia. Na ten moment nie podejmujemy jeszcze nauki chodzenia na smyczy, bo bardzo się jej boi, dlatego dla jego większego komfortu dajemy mu przestrzeń na naszej ogrodzonej Strefie Czartkowiaka. Osobom, którym ufa pozwala się wziąć na ręce, ale dotyku nowych osób się boi. Nie reaguje na żadne smaczki czy zabawki. Na ten moment na inne psy jest obojętny, na koty podobnie. Szukamy dla niego domu, w którym zna się specyfikę pracy ze zlęknionymi zwierzakami. Cygi w Czartkach nie miał żadnych epizodów agresji, na nowe sytuacje reaguje chowając się w kąt, na pewno na ten moment trudno będzie mu odnaleźć się w domu z dziećmi, więc polecamy go do domu z osobami dorosłymi, które znajdą czas i będą miały dużo cierpliwości do pokazywania mu świata i zrozumienia, że ze strony człowieka może spotkać go wiele dobra. Waga: 9 kg Smycz: nie Stosunek do psów: obojętny Został wykastrowany, odpchlony, odrobaczony, zaszczepiony, zachipowany, zarejestrowany w bazie Safe Animal. Psiak przebywa w: Schronisko Funny Pets w Czartkach Czartki 49b, 98-200 Sieradz powiat sieradzki, woj. łódzkie 43 828 36 46 - ogólny

About Cygi

What life with Cygi looks like

Cygi is a small 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.
