Hubert

Male · Adult · 4 years

Hubert means 'bright heart' which perfectly describes our ward. This young dog has good proportions and beautiful tortoiseshell fur, but his inner beauty is most striking. He behaves very politely around people, clearly having spent much time with humans. Hubert loves walks and knows how to enjoy every moment in nature. He's a classic sniffer who studies grass patches with scientific dedication. He's learned to calmly pass strangers, cars, and cyclists. After proper introduction, he can spend time with calm, balanced dogs. Some dogs still trigger emotions in him, but he increasingly chooses to avoid them by walking quickly past. He's gradually learning leash control but would master this faster in a calm home environment. Having gone from couch to shelter kennel, Hubert needs a house with large fenced yard, predictable environment, long walks, good diet, and quiet resting place. He needs company of nice, stable dogs but introducing him to a multi-dog home would require very aware caretakers. He previously lived with a cat but will chase unfamiliar cats.

Imię Hubert oznacza „jasne serce” i coś w tym jest. To wielki pies o słusznych kształtach, który przy swoich ludziach potrafi być miękki, czuły i radosny. Kocha przestrzeń, dalekie wędrówki, wiatr we włosach i kąpiele w każdym napotkanym zbiorniku. Hubi nie trafił do schroniska dlatego, że był złym psem. Jego dom po prostu przestał istnieć. Przeszłość Huberta znamy: wiemy, że z człowiekiem spędzał dużo czasu, zna domowe życie i cierpi za każdym razem, gdy musi wracać ze spaceru do chłodnego, betonowego boksu. W schronisku nadrobił pewne zaległości z okresu dorastania. Dziś umie już wiele rzeczy odpuścić, spokojnie minąć albo po prostu odejść, o ile ma do tego przestrzeń. Z psami chce i potrafi mieć dobre relacje. Lubi towarzystwo stabilnych, spokojnych czworonogów, a regularne kontakty z nimi są dla niego ważne. Niektóre obce psy jeszcze budzą w nim trochę emocji, ale coraz częściej wybiera strategię omijania szybkim krokiem. Sama miłość nie wystarczy, by zapewnić dobrą opiekę dużemu psu z jeszcze większym apetytem na życie. Hubert potrzebuje domu z ogrodem, z łatwym dostępem do terenów spacerowych. W przeszłości miał fantazję poznawania świata na własną łapę. Dlatego przyszła rodzina Huberta powinna zapewnić mu nie tylko solidne ogrodzenie, ale przede wszystkim mieć czas dla psa: na regularne, dalekie spacery, na jakościowe kontakty z innymi psami i nie skazywać go na wielogodzinne przebywanie w samotności. Hubert potrzebuje ludzi, którzy nie zakochają się wyłącznie w jego wyglądzie, tylko zobaczą całego psa: jego charakter, zalety i potrzeby. - Usposobienie: czuły, dość ufny, zna życie domowe, czasem jeszcze ciągnie na smyczy - Stosunek do psów: pozytywny i asertywny, potrzebuje kontaktów z miłymi, stabilnymi psami - Do kotów: mieszkał z kotem, ale na posesji koty goni - Do dzieci: niedelikatny, min. wiek: nastolatki - Zamieszkanie: wyłącznie dom z ogrodem w spokojnej okolicy Katarzyna 608 616 990 Agnieszka 693-141-535 Aleksandra 697 697 724

About Hubert

What life with Hubert looks like

Hubert is a extra-large adult dog waiting at Schronisko Na Paluchu in Warsaw.

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.

Note from the shelter: Requires house with large fenced yard, needs gradual introduction to other dogs, tends to chase cats

🇵🇱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 Hubert, answered.

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