Kaj

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 11 months

Kaj is a mixed breed dog who arrived at our shelter from the Jaktorów municipality. He is a mature dog who doesn't immediately trust humans. He needs time, a calm approach, and a sense of security to open his heart. Kaj has impaired vision and hearing, so the world isn't always easy for him to understand. Sometimes he may need a moment to figure out what's happening. That's why a person who doesn't demand anything from him - just patiently shows him that he doesn't have to be afraid - will be important to him. We're not looking for a perfect home for Kaj. We're looking for a good and understanding person who sees in him not age or limitations, but a dog who still has a great need for closeness, peace, and being someone's beloved companion. Kaj may not run to greet you right away. He may need many days, weeks, or even longer to really trust. But when he feels that you are his person, this bond can become something special. Give Kaj a chance to live his life with a person who will be his safe haven. He doesn't need much... just a little time, a lot of warmth, and someone who says: "You're safe now. You can rest now." DON'T BUY - ADOPT! A DOG WHO COMES TO OUR SHELTER IS COVERED BY A 14-DAY QUARANTINE. If he is not picked up by the owner during this time, the dog will be: vaccinated, chipped, neutered, and we will look for a new caregiver for him. The condition for adoption is to fill out a questionnaire available on our website, agree to a pre/post-adoption visit, and sign an adoption contract.

Imię: Kaj Rasa: Mix Ur.: 2015 Płeć: Samiec Wielkość: mały Waga: 11 kg Kaj przyjechał do naszego schroniska z terenu Gminy Jaktorów. To dojrzały pies, który nie od razu obdarza człowieka zaufaniem. Potrzebuje czasu, spokojnego podejścia i poczucia bezpieczeństwa, żeby otworzyć swoje serce. Kaj słabiej widzi i słyszy, dlatego świat nie zawsze jest dla niego łatwy do zrozumienia. Czasem może potrzebować chwili, by zorientować się, co się dzieje. Właśnie dlatego tak ważny będzie dla niego człowiek, który niczego nie będzie wymagał na siłę — tylko cierpliwie pokaże mu, że już nie musi się bać. Nie szukamy dla Kaja domu idealnego. Szukamy człowieka dobrego i wyrozumiałego, który zobaczy w nim nie wiek czy ograniczenia, ale psa, który nadal ma ogromną potrzebę bliskości, spokoju i bycia czyimś ukochanym towarzyszem. Może Kaj nie będzie od razu biegł na powitanie. Może będzie potrzebował wielu dni, tygodni, a nawet dłużej, by naprawdę zaufać. Ale kiedy już poczuje, że jesteś jego człowiekiem, ta więź może stać się czymś wyjątkowym. Daj Kajowi szansę przeżyć jesień życia u boku człowieka, który będzie jego bezpieczną przystanią. On nie potrzebuje wiele… tylko trochę czasu, dużo ciepła i kogoś, kto powie: „Już jesteś bezpieczny. Teraz możesz odpocząć.” NIE KUPUJ – ADOPTUJ ! PIES, KTÓRY TRAFIA DO NASZEGO SCHRONISKA, OBJĘTY JEST 14-DNIOWĄ KWARANTANNĄ. Jeśli w tym czasie nie odbierze go właściciel, pies zostanie: zaszczepiony, zachipowany, wykastrowany i będziemy szukać dla niego nowego opiekuna. Warunkiem adopcji jest wypełnienie ankiety dostępnej na naszej stronie, zgoda na wizytę przed/po- adopcyjną, podpisanie umowy adopcyjnej.

About Kaj

What life with Kaj looks like

Kaj is a small 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 Kaj, answered.

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