Adopt Griffin

Mixed Breed · Male

Hello, my name is Griffin — a little guy in a Yorkie type. I arrived at our shelter on May 22, 2026, after an intervention near Roosevelt Street. Although life dealt me a bit of a blow, I still believe somewhere out there is my person and a real home waiting for me. I am very friendly and cheerful — I absolutely love interacting with people and would happily give kisses and wag my tail from side to side. I have a lot of joy and energy, which is why I'm always full of life. I am also a bit barking — after all, I need to let the world know I'm here and I really want to be noticed. I walk nicely on a leash, so shared walks could become our daily delight. I am vaccinated and dewormed, and soon I will also undergo neutering. I am looking for a home full of warmth, patience, and love. A place where someone will love me not just for my cute ears and tiny paws, but for my big doggy heart. Maybe you are the one who will make sure I never have to wait behind a shelter cage again?

Cześć, jestem Griffin — mały chłopak w typie yorka. Do schroniska trafiłem 22 maja 2026 roku po interwencji z okolic ul. Roosevelta. Choć los trochę mnie doświadczył, ja nadal wierzę, że gdzieś czeka na mnie mój człowiek i prawdziwy dom.Jestem bardzo przyjazny i pogodny — uwielbiam kontakt z ludźmi i chętnie rozdawałbym całusy oraz merdanie ogonkiem na prawo i lewo. Mam w sobie mnóstwo radości i energii, dlatego wszędzie mnie pełno. Bywam też szczekliwy — muszę przecież powiedzieć światu, że tu jestem i bardzo chciałbym być zauważony. Ładnie chodzę na smyczy, więc wspólne spacery mogą stać się naszą codzienną przyjemnością. Jestem zaszczepiony, odrobaczony, a już niedługo przejdę także zabieg kastracji.Szukam domu pełnego ciepła, cierpliwości i miłości. Takiego, w którym ktoś pokocha mnie nie tylko za moje śmieszne uszka i małe łapki, ale też za moje wielkie psie serduszko. Może właśnie Ty sprawisz, że już nigdy nie będę musiał czekać za schroniskowym boksem?

About Griffin

What life with Griffin looks like

Griffin is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko Zabrze in Zabrze.

An 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 Griffin, answered.

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