Franki

Male · Young · 1 year

Franki is a dog with a decidedly unusual beauty! His body is long like that of a dachshund, his head resembles an shepherd’s, and we’d probably find many other breeds mixed in with him too 😉 But above all, Franki is a wonderful, people-oriented dog who wins hearts in an instant. He’s incredibly open and quickly forms bonds with people. However, he’s still learning how to communicate with other dogs. For now, he’s not entirely sure how to behave around them, so we’re starting intensive socialization right from the beginning. We don’t know Franki’s history, but considering how young he is, he probably has never had a real home. Therefore, during the adoption process, we recommend a pre-adoption visit to see how he adjusts to the apartment and the urban environment. We’re also unaware of his attitude toward children. We hope this amazing little dog will quickly win someone’s heart!

Franki to psiak o zdecydowanie niebanalnej urodzie! Długi niczym jamnik, głowa jak z owczarka i pewnie znaleźlibyśmy w nim jeszcze wiele domieszek innych ras 😉 Jednak przede wszystkim, Franki to cudowny, proludzki pies, który rozkochuje w sobie w sekundę. Jest niesamowicie otwarty i szybko nawiązuje relacje z ludźmi. Za to wciąż uczy się komunikacji z innymi psiakami. Na razie nie do końca wie, jak ma się zachować, dlatego już na starcie zaczynamy intensywną socjalizację. Nie znamy historii Frankiego, ale biorąc pod uwagę to, że jest młodziutki, prawdopodobnie nigdy nie miał prawdziwego domu. W związku z tym w procesie adopcyjnym zalecany wizytę przedadopcyjną celem sprawdzenia jak odnajdzie się w mieszkaniu i miejskiej okolicy. Nie znamy jego stosunku do dzieci. Mamy nadzieję, że tak wspaniały piesek błyskawicznie podbije czyjeś serce.

About Franki

What life with Franki looks like

Franki is a medium-sized young adult dog waiting at Schronisko Na Paluchu in Warsaw.

An young 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Franki, answered.

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