Ferb

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 12 years

Ferb is looking for a calm and patient home! 🐾 Ferb is a dog about 10-12 years old, weighing around 26 kg. He was brought to us interventionally from bad conditions, and the shelter environment very overwhelms him. 🥺 He is a sensitive and withdrawn dog who does not trust people immediately. He is only learning what safe contact is and that the presence of a person can mean something good. He does not show aggression - his reaction to new situations is mainly fear and withdrawal. Ferb needs a calm home, patience and time to slowly build trust. He will also require the support of a behaviorist who will help him work through his fears. He needs training and support in walking on a leash. For this reason, Ferb will not be a suitable candidate for living in a city center or a very busy place. He will best adapt to a home located in a quiet, peaceful area, where he can function in his own rhythm and without an excess of stimuli. We are looking for an experienced caregiver and a calm home without children, where he can get to know the world at his own pace and eventually feel safe. Ferb very much needs someone who will show him that life can be different. 🥹 The description is based on observations of the dog in the animal shelter. Ferb is under the care of OTOZ Animals animal shelter in Tczew. Shelter registration number: 284/25 Male is vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed and neutered.

Ferb szuka spokojnego i cierpliwego domu! 🐾 Ferb to pies w wieku około 10-12 lat, ważący około 26 kg. Trafił do nas interwencyjnie ze złych warunków, a środowisko schroniskowe bardzo go przytłacza. 🥺 To wrażliwy i wycofany pies, który nie ufa od razu człowiekowi. Dopiero uczy się, czym jest bezpieczny kontakt i że obecność człowieka może oznaczać coś dobrego. Nie wykazuje agresji - jego reakcją na nowe sytuacje jest przede wszystkim lęk i wycofanie. Ferb potrzebuje spokojnego domu, cierpliwości i czasu, aby móc powoli budować zaufanie. Będzie również wymagał wsparcia behawiorysty, który pomoże mu przepracować lęki. Potrzebuje nauki i wsparcia przy chodzeniu na smyczy. Z tego względu Ferb nie będzie odpowiednim kandydatem do życia w centrum miasta czy w bardzo ruchliwym miejscu. Najlepiej odnajdzie się w domu położonym w cichej, spokojnej okolicy, gdzie będzie mógł funkcjonować we własnym rytmie i bez nadmiaru bodźców. Szukamy dla niego doświadczonego opiekuna oraz spokojnego domu bez dzieci, gdzie będzie mógł w swoim tempie poznawać świat i w końcu poczuć się bezpiecznie. Ferb bardzo potrzebuje kogoś, kto pokaże mu, że życie może wyglądać inaczej. 🥹 Opis jest napisany względem obserwacji psa w schronisku. Ferb przebywa pod opieką OTOZ Animals Schroniska w Tczewie. Numer ewidencyjny w schronisku: 284/25 Samiec jest zaszczepiony, zachipowany, odrobaczony i wykastrowany. Kontakt w sprawie adopcji: 📞 58 531 96 56 💌

About Ferb

What life with Ferb looks like

Ferb is a large senior mixed breed dog waiting at Fundacja Puszatek 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Ferb, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Ferb?
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 Ferb on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Ferb 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 Ferb 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 Ferb 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 Ferb 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.
