Lusia

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 3 years

Sisters Lusia and Dusia came to us in April 2025 from Piotrków Kujawski. They were born around October 2022. They are sensitive, shy female dogs who are just learning to trust people. At first, they prefer to observe from a safe distance, and a new situation is a challenge for them. They can walk on a leash, but the first step towards a stranger requires courage from them. Sometimes they try to scare away by barking or hiding in the shed, but this is just a way of dealing with stress. However, when they feel more confident - then they reveal their affectionate side to people. In the right home, full of patience, calm and love, they will blossom day by day. The greatest happiness would be if they could live together - then they would give each other a sense of security and support. Both female dogs are spayed.

Siostry Lusia i Dusia trafiły do nas w kwietniu 2025 roku z Piotrkowa Kujawskiego. Urodziły się około października 2022 r. To wrażliwe, nieśmiałe suczki, które dopiero uczą się ufać człowiekowi. Na początku wolą obserwować z bezpiecznej odległości, a nowa sytuacja jest dla nich wyzwaniem. Potrafią chodzić na smyczy, jednak pierwszy krok w stronę obcej osoby wymaga od nich odwagi. Czasem próbują odstraszyć szczekaniem lub schować się w budzie, ale to tylko sposób na radzenie sobie ze stresem. Gdy jednak poczują się pewniej – wtedy odkrywają przed człowiekiem swoją przytulaśną stronę . W odpowiednim domu, pełnym cierpliwości, spokoju i miłości, będą z dnia na dzień rozkwitać. Największym szczęściem byłoby, gdyby mogły zamieszkać razem – wtedy dawałyby sobie nawzajem poczucie bezpieczeństwa i wsparcie. Obie suczki są wykastrowane.

About Lusia

What life with Lusia looks like

Lusia is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko Konin in Poland.

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.

🇵🇱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 Lusia, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Lusia?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Schronisko Konin handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Lusia on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Lusia if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Schronisko Konin 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 Lusia 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 Lusia 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 Konin early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lusia 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.
