DONATELLO

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 9 years

DONATELLO is an extremely polite, calm and gentle senior dog. Although he is an old dog and has been through a lot in his life, he can still surprise with joy and energy. A real cuddler - loves to be petted, the company of people and affection. When allowed to lie in bed (of course with a little help to get in), he was so happy that it was hard not to capture the moment on a photo. Gets along very well with other dogs. With Amber, he functions without problems - even when she sometimes barks, DONATELLO calmly lets it go. It's a dog that doesn't look for conflicts and brings peace and balance to the home. Currently staying in a foster home. We are looking for a permanent home for him, full of patience, understanding and love. Maybe it's just waiting for you!

PL·Show original

Donatello to niezwykle grzeczny, spokojny i łagodny psi senior. Choć jest starszym pieskiem i przeszedł w swoim życiu wiele, potrafi zaskoczyć radością i energią. Prawdziwy pieszczoch – uwielbia głaskanie, bliskość człowieka i czułość. Kiedy pozwolono mu poleżeć razem w łóżku (oczywiście z małą pomocą przy wejściu), był tak bardzo szczęśliwy, że aż trudno było nie uwiecznić tej chwili na zdjęciu. Z innymi psami dogaduje się bardzo dobrze. Z Amber funkcjonuje bez problemu – nawet gdy ona czasem zawarczy, Donatello spokojnie odpuszcza. To pies, który nie szuka konfliktów i wnosi do domu spokój oraz równowagę. Obecnie przebywa w domu tymczasowym. Szukamy dla niego domu stałego, pełnego cierpliwości, zrozumienia i miłości. Być może czeka właśnie na Ciebie! Kontakt 📞 601

About DONATELLO

What life with DONATELLO looks like

DONATELLO is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Gnieźnie in Gniezno.

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.

🇵🇱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 DONATELLO, answered.

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