How do I contact the shelter about Krysia?

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 Krysia on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Krysia 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 Krysia 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 Krysia 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 Krysia 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.

Krysia

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 13 months

Looking at Krysia, it's hard to believe how much she has been through. A small, older female dog who doesn't ask for much. She doesn't need long walks, big adventures or a crowd around her. All she dreams of is a quiet corner and a person with whom she can just be. Krysia is extremely gentle and calm. She gets along with other dogs, and currently lives in the adoption office where she provides support to our senior dog, Chester, every day. As if she knows that sometimes the greatest help is simply someone's presence. Her life hasn't been kind to her. She was found wandering on Obwodnica, neglected and very confused. Krysia has heart disease, a non-operable liver tumor, and recently underwent tooth extraction surgery. That's why she can only eat soft, wet food now. Despite what happened to her, she still trusts humans. She still wags her tail at the sight of a familiar face. She is still waiting for her miracle. We are looking for a home full of peace, warmth and affection for her. Senior dogs like Krysia don't have much time, so we would really like Krysia to make it home. Come. Meet. Love. Give Krysia a home for the rest of her life. KRYSIA is in the "Ciapkowo" animal shelter in Gdynia run by OTOZ Animals. *Descriptions are based on behavior observed at the shelter and may not reflect the dog's behavior in a home environment.

Patrząc na Krysię, trudno uwierzyć, ile już przeszła. Mała, starsza sunia, która nie prosi o wiele. Nie potrzebuje długich spacerów, wielkich przygód ani tłumu wokół siebie. Marzy tylko o spokojnym kącie i człowieku, przy którym będzie mogła po prostu być. Krysia jest niezwykle łagodna i spokojna. Dogaduje się z innymi psami, a obecnie mieszka w biurze adopcyjnym, gdzie każdego dnia jest wsparciem dla naszego psiego seniora, Chestera. Jakby sama wiedziała, że czasem największą pomocą jest po prostu czyjaś obecność. Jej życie nie było dla niej łaskawe. Została znaleziona jak błąkała się po Obwodnicy, była zaniedbana i bardzo zdezorientowana. Krysia choruje na serce, ma nieoperacyjny rozsiany guz na wątrobie, a niedawno przeszła zabieg ekstrakcji zębów. Dlatego może jeść już tylko miękki, mokry pokarm. Mimo tego co ją spotkało, nadal ufa człowiekowi. Nadal merda ogonkiem na widok znajomej twarzy. Nadal czeka na swój cud. Szukamy dla niej domu pełnego spokoju, ciepła i czułości. Takie psie seniorki jak Krysia nie mają dużo czasu, bardzo chcielibyśmy aby Krysia zdążyła do domu. Przyjdź. Poznaj. Pokochaj. Daj Krysi dom na resztę życia. KRYSIA przebywa w schronisku dla bezdomnych zwierząt „Ciapkowo” w Gdyni prowadzonym przez OTOZ Animals. *opisy dotyczą zachowań obserwowanych w schronisku i mogą nie odzwierciedlać zachowania psa w warunkach domowych.

About Krysia

What life with Krysia looks like

Krysia 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.
