How do I contact the shelter about CZIKO?

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

Can I adopt CZIKO 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 CZIKO 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 CZIKO 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 CZIKO 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.

CZIKO

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 6 years

CZIKO is a friendly and social dog whose past we unfortunately do not know. We do not know what he experienced before the animal shelter or how his life looked prior to it. What we do know is that his stay in the shelter conditions is very difficult for him, and he clearly struggles to cope. He tends to destroy blankets and other items in his box. It’s hard to say definitively whether this behavior is a result of stress and frustration from being in the shelter or whether it could also appear in home conditions. Therefore, we are looking for a responsible home that will be willing to give him time to adapt and peacefully find his place in a new reality. CZIKO is positively disposed towards other dogs, and there is a chance he could live with a canine resident after proper introduction. However, he will not find a home with cats due to his sensitivity and need for a calm environment. We are seeking a home with older children or a home without children. This animal is not suitable for homes with children.

PL·Show original

Cziko to przyjazny i kontaktowy psiak, którego przeszłości niestety nie znamy. Nie wiemy, co spotkało go wcześniej ani jak wyglądało jego życie przed schroniskiem. Wiemy jednak, że pobyt w schroniskowych warunkach jest dla niego bardzo trudny i wyraźnie sobie z nim nie radzi. W swoim boksie zdarza mu się niszczyć koce oraz inne przedmioty. Trudno jednoznacznie ocenić, czy jest to zachowanie wynikające ze stresu i frustracji związanej z pobytem w schronisku, czy też problem, który może pojawić się również w warunkach domowych. Dlatego szukamy dla niego odpowiedzialnego domu, który będzie gotowy dać mu czas na adaptację i spokojne odnalezienie się w nowej rzeczywistości. Cziko jest pozytywnie nastawiony do innych psów i istnieje szansa, że mógłby zamieszkać z psim rezydentem po wcześniejszym, odpowiednim zapoznaniu. Zdecydowanie nie odnajdzie się natomiast w domu z kotami. Ze względu na jego wrażliwość i potrzebę spokojnego otoczenia szukamy dla niego domu ze starszymi dziećmi lub domu bez dzieci.

About CZIKO

What life with CZIKO looks like

CZIKO is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko Świdnica in Poland.

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.
