Kazio

Male · Adult · 8 years

Kazio has been through a lot, but still looks at humans with hope. His body bears the marks of a difficult life. He came to the animal shelter with an old fracture of the front paw. Unfortunately, the paw could not be saved and on November 21st he underwent an amputation. Kazio is very brave and with each day is getting better and better as a three-legged dog. Despite his difficult life, Kazio has not lost faith in people. He gently approaches, seeks closeness and snuggles. However, he can be scared by sudden movements. He needs a stable, calm home. A person who will reward him for everything he has gone through so far. Someone who will show him that life can be peaceful, full of kindness and safety. That a human can be good. If you feel you can give him a home and a new life, respond:

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.
