Kazio

Male · Adult · 8 years

Kazio has been through a lot but still looks at people with hope. His body bears traces of a difficult life. He came to the shelter with an old broken front paw. Unfortunately, the paw couldn't be saved and he underwent amputation on November 21st. Kazio is very brave and gets better each day as a three-legged dog. Despite his difficult life, he hasn't lost faith in humans. He approaches gently, seeks closeness and cuddles. However, he can be frightened by sudden movements. He needs a stable, calm home with someone who will reward him for everything he's been through. Someone who will show him that life can be peaceful, full of tenderness and safety.

Kazio wiele przeszedł, ale nadal patrzy na człowieka z ogromną radością i nadzieją. ❤️ Do schroniska trafił ze starym złamaniem przedniej łapy. Niestety nie udało się jej uratować i kilka miesięcy temu Kazio przeszedł amputację. Nasz dzielny bohater błyskawicznie nauczył się żyć na trzech łapach. Świetnie sobie radzi, spaceruje, bawi się, a kiedy sytuacja tego wymaga — potrafi nawet nieźle pobiec! Łap może ma mniej, ale energii, pogody ducha i chęci do życia zdecydowanie mu nie brakuje. 🐾 Kazio chętnie podchodzi do ludzi, szuka bliskości, wtula się i z wielkim zaangażowaniem zbiera głaski. Najlepiej wszystkie. I najlepiej od razu. 😉 To niezwykle radosny, otwarty i przyjazny pies. Każdy człowiek jest dla niego potencjalnym najlepszym przyjacielem. Kazio dogaduje się także z większością psów. Podczas akcji Adoptuj Warszawiak w mieście świetnie czuł się wśród wielu ludzi i w zupełnie nowym otoczeniu. Bez problemu odnalazł się w całym zamieszaniu, rozdawał uśmiechy i udowadniał, że brak jednej łapki wcale nie przeszkadza mu korzystać z życia. Szukamy dla Kazia stabilnego, spokojnego i kochającego domu. Człowieka, który wynagrodzi mu wszystko, co do tej pory przeszedł. Kogoś, kto pokaże mu, że życie może być pełne bezpieczeństwa, czułości i wspólnych przygód. Kazio nie potrzebuje litości. Potrzebuje domu, swojego człowieka i miejsca, w którym będzie mógł dalej być sobą — pogodnym, kochającym i pełnym energii psiakiem. Czujesz, że możesz podarować temu wyjątkowemu trójłapkowi nowe życie? Odezwij się do nas w wiadomości prywatnej. Kazio czeka. 🏠🐶

About Kazio

What life with Kazio looks like

Kazio is a medium-sized 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. 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.

Note from the shelter: Three-legged dog after front leg amputation due to old fracture

🇵🇱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 Kazio, answered.

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