Dziunia

Female

Dziunia is a lovely but very sensitive little dog who has been at the shelter for many months. She arrived as an extremely fearful dog, and despite our intense work on her trust, she still fears the world to the point that in stressful situations she can run away in panic. In close contact with humans, she often reacts panicked, trying to defend herself with her teeth if she feels threatened. Unfortunately, Dziunia lives most of the time with a sense of danger. However, despite these difficulties, Dziunia has her moments of joy. Her great achievement is running with other dogs in the exercise yards - then you can see the sparkle in her eyes and her face takes on a different, radiant expression. She really likes to lie down and bask in the sun on warm days. In such moments, it's clear that she can enjoy life, even for a moment. Dziunia needs a family that is willing to undertake long-term and patient work on her trust. We realize that she may never fully trust humans, but every being deserves a real home - especially those who have been hurt and wounded by humans. If you are someone who understands how important patience and love are in the socialization process, Dziunia is waiting for you. Help her find a place where she can feel safe and loved.

Dziunia to urocza, ale bardzo wrażliwa suczka, która od wielu miesięcy przebywa w schronisku. Przybyła do nas jako piesek niezwykle lękowy, a mimo naszej intensywnej pracy nad jej zaufaniem, wciąż boi się świata do tego stopnia, że w sytuacjach stresowych potrafi uciekać w popłochu. W bliskim kontakcie z człowiekiem często reaguje panicznie, próbując bronić się zębami, jeśli tylko poczuje się zagrożona. Niestety, Dziunia przez większość czasu żyje z poczuciem zagrożenia.Jednakże, pomimo tych trudności, Dziunia ma swoje momenty radości. Jej wielkim osiągnięciem jest bieganie z innymi psami na wybiegach – wtedy można zauważyć, jak w jej oczach pojawia się blask, a pyszczek nabiera innego, promiennego wyrazu. Bardzo lubi kłaść i wygrzewać się na słońcu w ciepłe dni. W takich chwilach widać, że potrafi cieszyć się życiem, choćby na moment.Dziunia potrzebuje rodziny, która będzie gotowa podjąć się długotrwałej i cierpliwej pracy nad jej zaufaniem. Zdajemy sobie sprawę, że może nigdy całkowicie nie zaufa człowiekowi, ale każda istota zasługuje na prawdziwy dom – szczególnie te, które zostały skrzywdzone i zranione przez ludzi. Jeśli jesteś osobą, która rozumie, jak ważna jest cierpliwość i miłość w procesie socjalizacji, Dziunia czeka na Ciebie. Pomóż jej znaleźć miejsce, w którym będzie mogła poczuć się bezpiecznie i kochana.

About Dziunia

What life with Dziunia looks like

Dziunia is an adult dog waiting at Schronisko Czekadełko 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. Adopters usually cover transport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Dziunia, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Dziunia?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Schronisko Czekadełko handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Dziunia on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Dziunia if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Schronisko Czekadełko 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Dziunia 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 Dziunia 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 Czekadełko early rather than rehoming privately; they know Dziunia 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.
