Adopt Joseph

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 1 month

We have been asked to help find a new place for a dog. His owner works a lot and can't take care of the dog. The dog is often alone, becomes wild, and starts to fear people. This is still a puppy, it can be trained and raised in your own way. Joseph is less than a year old, may weigh around 18 kg, likes the presence of other dogs. Currently located near Łódź.

Poproszono nas o pomoc w szukaniu nowego miejsca dla psiaka. Jego pan dużo pracuje i nie radzi sobie z opieką nad psem. Psiak często jest sam, dziczeje, zaczyna bać się ludzi. To jeszcze psi dzieciak, można go ułożyć i wychować po swojemu. Joseph ma niespełna rok, może ważyć ok 18 kg, lubi obecność innych psów. Obecnie przebywa w okolicach Łodzi.

About Joseph

What life with Joseph looks like

Joseph is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Fundacja Puszatek in Warszawa.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇵🇱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 Joseph, answered.

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