Gaja

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 8 years

Name: Gaja Breed: Mixed Breed Date of Birth: 2018 Gender: Female Size: Large Weight: 35.5 kg Gaja is an approximately 8-year-old female dog who came to us from the commune of Ostrów Mazowiecka. She is a calm, well-behaved, and gentle dog who has adapted to her new surroundings with remarkable composure. Gaja shows no aggression toward either people or other animals. She is friendly and enjoys human company. She walks beautifully on a leash, which suggests that she probably had a home at some point and knows what it’s like to live alongside humans. Unfortunately, Gaja arrived with a lump on her abdomen, making her even more deserving of care and attention. Despite her past experiences, she has not lost her trust in people. Gaja is looking for a calm, loving home where she can feel safe and spend her mature years surrounded by love. DON’T BUY—ADOPT! A DOG THAT ENTERS OUR SHELTER IS SUBJECT TO A 14-DAY QUARANTINE PERIOD. If the owner does not pick up the dog within this time, it will be vaccinated, microchipped, spayed/neutered, and we will begin searching for a new guardian for it. The adoption process requires completing a questionnaire available on our website, agreeing to a pre- or post-adoption home visit, and signing an adoption agreement. Contact details for guardians: 795 845 242 Shelter in Nowy Dwór Mazowiecki, Friends of Lesser Brothers Foundation www.fundacjapsom.pl

To spokojna, ułożona i łagodna psinka, która z dużym spokojem odnajduje się w nowym dla niej miejscu. Sunia nie wykazuje agresji ani wobec ludzi, ani wobec innych zwierząt. Jest przyjazna i lubi kontakt z człowiekiem. Pięknie chodzi na smyczy, co pokazuje, że najprawdopodobniej miała kiedyś swój dom i zna życie u boku człowieka. Niestety Gaja przyjechała do nas z guzem na brzuchu, dlatego tym bardziej zasługuje na troskę i opiekę. Mimo swoich doświadczeń nie straciła zaufania do ludzi. Gaja szuka spokojnego i kochającego domu, w którym będzie mogła poczuć się bezpiecznie i spędzić swoje dojrzałe lata otoczona miłością. NIE KUPUJ – ADOPTUJ !

About Gaja

What life with Gaja looks like

Gaja is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Fundacja Puszatek in Warszawa.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Gaja, answered.

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