Kora

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

Meet Kora! This adorable puppy is about 6 months old and came under our care in July of this year. Kora is still a doggy child who was completely terrified of the new place and the noise of the shelter at first. 🥺 Day by day, in small steps, Kora is starting to open her heart. Although she is still learning about human presence and accepting touch, she has already trusted her caregivers and is slowly discovering that human hands bring only good and safety. Kora is still getting used to the world. On walks, she learns to walk on a leash. She walks more confidently and willingly when another dog is walking beside her. Due to the still felt fear of the unknown, after a short walk she quickly wants to return to the shelter. She runs with many dogs on the playground and feels great in dog company! She is completely non-conflict and gentle. The presence of another, stable dog in a new home would be a great support for her in overcoming her fears. 🐕 We do not yet know her reaction to cat company, due to the lack of possibility to check this in the shelter. Kora urgently needs to leave the shelter walls so that her fears do not become fixed in the future. We are looking for a quiet, understanding and patient home for her, which will give her time to acclimate, continue learning to walk on a leash and build her confidence. Give this little crumb a safe haven 💛. 📌 Adoption procedure and castration obligation after reaching the appropriate age apply.

Poznajcie Korę! Ta przeurocza sunia ma około 6 miesięcy i trafiła pod naszą opiekę w lipcu tego roku. Kora to jeszcze psie dziecko, które na samym początku było całkowicie przerażone nowym miejscem i hałasem schroniska. 🥺 Dzień po dniu, małymi krokami, Kora zaczyna otwierać swoje serduszko. Choć nadal uczy się obecności człowieka i akceptacji dotyku, zaufała już swoim opiekunom i powoli odkrywa, że ludzkie dłonie niosą ze sobą wyłącznie dobro i bezpieczeństwo. Kora wciąż oswaja się ze światem. Na spacerach uczy się chodzenia na smyczy. Zdecydowanie pewniej i chętniej idzie wtedy, gdy obok niej drepcze inny psiak. Ze względu na wciąż odczuwany lęk przed nieznanym, po krótkim spacerku szybko chce wracać do schroniska. Na wybiegu biega z wieloma psiakami i w psim towarzystwie czuje się znakomicie! Jest całkowicie bezkonfliktowa i łagodna. Obecność innego, stabilnego psa w nowym domu byłaby dla niej ogromnym wsparciem w przełamywaniu lęków. 🐕 Nie znamy jeszcze jej reakcji na kocie towarzystwo, ze względu na brak możliwości sprawdzenia tego w schronisku. Kora pilnie potrzebuje opuścić schroniskowe mury, aby jej lęki nie utrwaliły się na przyszłość. Szukamy dla niej spokojnego, wyrozumiałego i cierpliwego domu, który da jej czas na zaklimatyzowanie się, kontynuowanie nauki chodzenia na smyczy oraz budowanie pewności siebie. Podaruj tej małej kruszynie bezpieczną przystań 💛. 📌 Obowiązuje procedura adopcyjna oraz obowiązek kastracji po osiągnięciu odpowiedniego wieku.

About Kora

What life with Kora looks like

Kora is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Fundacja Puszatek in Warszawa.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Kora, answered.

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