How do I contact the shelter about Falko?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Fundacja Zwierzęca Polana handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Falko on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Falko if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Fundacja Zwierzęca Polana 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 Falko 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 Falko 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 Zwierzęca Polana early rather than rehoming privately; they know Falko 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.

Falko

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 10 years

The story of Falko is that of an extraordinary handsome dog: always dressed in a stylish coat in an impressive color, with a muzzle with a defiantly receded lower jaw, a bit like a shark... And that languid look - alert, wise, revealing that his brain is working at full speed. Falko spent six years of his life in a small kennel run and the guard dog has already had enough. He's looking for a new position - preferably in a home where he will have his place, his piece of garden, his shelter. And above all, his people, who respect his need for personal space. Falko hasn't had many positive experiences with people before, so he needs time to gain trust in someone and be sure that his dog's heart won't be broken again. Falko doesn't like chaos and mess, intense social life and parties. For this reason, he won't be a good companion for young children. What does Falko like? Delicious food, walks in the forest, peace. And people who are good to him. He can also live in a temporary home that will support him on the way to adoption. Falko is staying in a hotel in Kołbiel.

PL·Show original

Historia Falko jest wyjątkowym przystojniakiem: zawsze ubrany w stylowe futro w zjawiskowym kolorze, z pyszczkiem z zawadiacko cofniętą dolną żuchwą trochę jak u rekina… No i to powłóczyste spojrzenie – czujne, mądre, zdradzające, że mózg pracuje na pełnych obrotach. Falko sześć lat życia spędził w małym kojcu i fuchy dozorcy kojcowego ma już zdecydowanie dość. Szuka nowego etatu – najlepiej w domu, gdzie będzie miał swoje miejsce, swój kawałek ogrodu, swój azyl. I, przede wszystkim, swoich ludzi, szanujących jego potrzebę własnej przestrzeni. Falko nie miał wcześniej zbyt wielu pozytywnych doświadczeń z ludźmi, więc potrzebuje czasu, żeby nabrać do kogoś zaufania i pewności, że jego psie serce nie zostanie kolejny raz złamane. Falko nie lubi zamieszania i rozgardiaszu, intensywnego życia towarzyskiego i imprez. Z tego też powodu nie sprawdzi się jako towarzysz małych dzieci. A co Falko lubi? Pyszne jedzonko, spacery po lesie, spokój. I ludzi, którzy są dla niego dobrzy. Może też zamieszkać w domu tymczasowym, który będzie go wspierał na drodze do adopcji. Falko przebywa w hoteliku w Kołbieli.

About Falko

What life with Falko looks like

Falko is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Fundacja Zwierzęca Polana in Warszawa.

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.
