LUIS

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 3 months

Luis arrived at the shelter on February 11th with her friend Thelma as a result of an intervention. She is about 3 years old and weighs 17kg. She looks a bit like a miniature German shepherd with ears down. Louis knows how to walk on a leash, she is nice to humans, unfortunately the shelter is a big stress for her - she does not feel good in the shelter's kennel. She gets along with other dogs, but selectively - she needs to get acquainted and feel safer with another dog - so far she has only had relationships with Thelma. The female dog needs a caregiver who will give her some time - at first she may be a little afraid of what will be new for her.

Luis przyjechała do schroniska 11 lutego z koleżanką Thelmą na skutek interwencji. Ma około 3 lat, waży 17kg. Wygląda trochę jak miniaturowy owczarek niemiecki z uszami w dół. Louis umie spacerować na smyczy, jest miła w stosunku do człowieka, niestety schronisko to dla niej duży stres - nie czuje się dobrze w schroniskowym kojcu. Dogaduje się z innymi psami, ale wybiórczo - potrzebuje się zapoznać i poczuć przy drugim psie bezpieczniej - dotychczas miała relacje tylko z Thelmą. Sunia potrzebuje opiekuna, który da jej trochę czasu - na początku może trochę obawiać się tego, co będzie dla niej nowe.

About LUIS

What life with LUIS looks like

LUIS is a medium-sized 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting LUIS, answered.

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