How do I contact the shelter about Lisia?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Józefowie handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Lisia on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Lisia if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Józefowie 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 Lisia 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 Lisia 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 dla Zwierząt w Józefowie early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lisia 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.

Lisia

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 10 years

Today, Lisia, who is in her teens, has spent most of her life in an animal shelter for homeless animals. Unfortunately, a serious illness has made it impossible for her to continue caring for Lisia. Currently, the dog lives in a home-based boarding facility. She is a sweet, sensitive, and well-mannered female dog with strong social skills. She knows how to get along with almost any dog. At the same time, she can be assertive and diplomatically set boundaries—both with other dogs and with people. At home, she’s trouble-free, quiet, and doesn’t destroy anything. She walks beautifully on a leash. During forest walks, she stays close to the person she trusts. However, gaining Lisia’s trust takes effort, as she doesn’t immediately trust every person she meets. Towards unfamiliar people, she tends to remain somewhat distant and cautious—but she can usually overcome this quickly. She just needs time, patience, space, and the right to make her own choices. This principle also applies to children; therefore, building positive relationships with kids will likewise require time and effort. For a calm and balanced person, Lisia can become a fantastic companion both at home and during shorter or longer hikes. She particularly loves hiking in the forest. She would definitely be happy to live with another dog—or even several dogs—provided that all the dogs know how to maintain proper canine etiquette in their interactions with each other. She accepts cats. We invite you to meet this special female dog near Warsaw (in the Kampinos area). Gender: femaleBorn around 2010–2011Size: mediumSpayed: yesShe is vaccinated and microchipped.Contact for adoption: Volunteer Kasia: 691 537 446Volunteer Renata: 694 698 017We want to find the best possible home for her, so we’ll ask interested adopters to fill out an adoption questionnaire. By adopting a dog, you take responsibility for the life of a living being for the next several years. An animal is not a thing. We do not give dogs away on chains! A condition of adoption is signing an adoption agreement, covering the costs of preventive care, and agreeing to possible pre- and post-adoption visits.

Kilkunastoletnia dziś Lisia większość swojego życia spędziła w schronisku dla bezdomnych zwierząt. Niestety ciężka choroba odebrała mu możliwość dalszej opieki nad Lisią. Aktualnie sunia mieszka w domowym hoteliku. Jest miłą, wrażliwą i kulturalną suczką o sporych kompetencjach społecznych. Wie, jak dogadać się niemal z każdym psem. Jednocześnie potrafi być asertywna i dyplomatycznie postawić granice zarówno psom jak i ludziom. W domu jest bezproblemowa, cicha, nie niszczy. Pięknie chodzi na smyczy. Podczas spacerów po lesie pilnuje się człowieka, któremu ufa. Jednak na zaufanie Lisi trzeba zapracować, bo nie od razu i nie każdego napotkanego człowieka obdarza ufnością. Wobec nieznanych osób jest raczej zdystansowana i ostrożna ale dość szybko potrafi to przełamać. Potrzebuje tylko czasu, cierpliwości, przestrzeni i prawa wyboru. Ta zasada również dotyczy dzieci, dlatego pozytywne jej relacje z dziećmi też wymagać będą czasu i pracy. Dla spokojnej i zrównoważonej osoby Lisia może stać się fantastyczną towarzyszką zarówno w domu jak i podczas krótszych i dłuższych wędrówek. Najbardziej lubi wędrówki po lesie. Zdecydowanie może zamieszkać z drugim psem a nawet większą ilością psów pod warunkiem, że będą umiały zachować zasady psiego savoir-vivre we wzajemnych relacjach. Akceptuje koty. Zapraszamy do poznania tej wyjątkowej suczki pod Warszawą (okolice Kampinosu). płeć: suczkaur. ok. 2010-2011wielkość: średniasterylizacja: takJest zaszczepiona i zaczipowana. Kontakt w sprawie adopcji: Wolontariuszka Kasia: 691 537 446 wolontariuszka Renata 694 698 017 Chcemy znaleźć dom najlepszy z możliwych, dlatego zainteresowanych będziemy prosili o wypełnienie ankiety adopcyjnej. Adoptując psa, bierzemy na siebie odpowiedzialność za los żywego stworzenia na następne kilkanaście lat. Zwierzę nie jest rzeczą. Nie wydajemy psów na łańcuch! Warunkiem adopcji jest podpisanie umowy adopcyjnej, zwrot kosztów profilaktyki oraz zgoda na ewentualne wizyty przed i poadopcyjne.

About Lisia

What life with Lisia looks like

Lisia is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Józefowie in Józefów.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇵🇱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.
