Adopt Hugo

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

Hugo – this small short-legged pup, when he runs, his ears stand up like airplane wings. Exactly like that he races in a person's hand! He appeared at the animal shelter relatively recently, so we are just getting to know him. He is gentle with people, patiently waits for the leash to be attached and going for a walk. Depending on his mood, he prefers rather shorter or medium-length walks. Sometimes you have to negotiate a bit with him about which direction to go or whether it's time to return to the kennel, as he has his own opinion on this. He bravely handles the leash, independently untangles his paws from it. Currently, he is learning polite behavior towards other dogs, 🔵 Are you interested in adoption?

Hugo – ten krótkołapy maluch, gdy tylko biegnie, stawia swoje uszka jak skrzydła samolotu. Dokładnie tak pędzi w ręce człowieka! Pojawił się w schronisku stosunkowo niedawno, więc dopiero się zapoznajemy. Jest łagodny wobec ludzi, cierpliwie czeka na podpięcie smyczki i wyjście na spacer. Zależnie od nastroju woli raczej krótszy lub średniej długości spacer. Czasami trzeba troszkę ponegocjować z nim na temat tego w jakim kierunku pójść lub czy już wracać do boksu, bo miewa własne zdanie na ten temat. Dzielnie radzi sobie ze smyczą, samodzielnie odplątuje z niej łapki. Obecnie uczy się kulturalnego zachowania wobec innych piesków, 🔵 Jesteś zainteresowany adopcją?

Możesz zostać domem tymczasowym* lub adoptować wirtualnie: przypadku domu tymczasowego schronisko zapewnia karmę oraz pokrywa koszty weterynaryjne

About Hugo

What life with Hugo looks like

Hugo is a small young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Fundacja Viva Korabiewice in Korabiewice.

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 Hugo, answered.

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