About Irish

What life with Irish looks like

Irish is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Fundacja Wzajemnie Pomocni in Poland.

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 Irish, answered.

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