How do I contact the shelter about Frodo?

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

Can I adopt Frodo if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Poznaniu 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 Frodo 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 Frodo 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 Poznaniu early rather than rehoming privately; they know Frodo 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.

Frodo

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 9 years

Estimated birth date: 2014 In the animal shelter since: 08.2024 Gender: male [neutered] Weight: 11 kg Vaccinations/flea treatment/chipping: YES, chip 6160096700097983 Food: Brit Premium (wet) Health: takes medication for thyroid issues, eye drop on the right eye, eye problems - regular eye drops Activity: low Relationship with dogs: ignores from a distance, unknown up close Relationship with other animals: unknown Relationship with children: unknown, not recommended Temperament: Frodo is a cute ball of fur who is initially distrustful, but once he gets used to a person, he won't leave his side. He loves food, so it's easy to win him over with treats and contact is established rather quickly. Due to his age, walks with him are not long, but as a senior he can move quite quickly. However, he definitely prefers spending time with his person on the couch. He loves being petted and cuddled, but he doesn't like grooming procedures, which he can show by warning growling. He also guards his bowl - do not disturb him during meals. He is a small, low-to-the-ground dog, so he is looking for a home with a small number of stairs. The relationship with children is unknown to us, but due to resource guarding and clearly showing when something doesn't suit him, we do not recommend him as a companion for young children.

Szacowana data urodzenia: 2014 W schronisku od: 08.2024 Płeć: samiec Waga: 11 kg Szczepienia/ odpchlenie/ chipowanie: TAK, chip 6160096700097983 Karma: Brit Premium (mokra) Zdrowie: przyjmuje leki na tarczyce, bielmo na prawym oku, problemy z oczami – systematyczne zakraplanie ich Aktywność: mała Stosunek do psów: z daleka ignoruje, z bliska nieznany Stosunek do innych zwierząt: nieznany Stosunek do dzieci: nieznany, niezalecany Usposobienie: Frodo to uroczy kłębek futerka, który na początku jest nieufny, ale jak już się do człowieka przyzwyczai, nie odstępuje go na krok. Psiak uwielbia jedzonko, dlatego łatwo go przekonać do siebie smaczkami i nawiązanie kontaktu przychodzi dość szybko. Ze względu na wiek spacerki z nim nie należą do długich, ale jak na seniora potrafi poruszać się dość szybko. Zdecydowanie jednak bardziej woli przebywanie ze swoim człowiekiem na kanapie. Uwielbia głaskanie i pieszczoty, ale nie przepada za zabiegami pielęgnacyjnymi, co potrafi okazać ostrzegawczym warczeniem. Broni także miski – przy jedzeniu nie należy mu przeszkadzać. Jest małym, niskopodłogowym psiakiem, więc szuka domu z niewielką ilością schodów. Stosunek do dzieci jest nam nieznany, ale ze względu na bronienie zasobów i zdecydowanie w okazywaniu, gdy mu się coś nie podoba, nie polecamy go na towarzysza małych dzieci.

About Frodo

What life with Frodo looks like

Frodo is a small senior mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Poznaniu in Poznan.

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.
