Maciuś

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 6 years

Maciuś arrived at our shelter on 29.05.2026 from ul. Zagórowska. When he arrived, his condition was heartbreaking - he was very matted and neglected. Today, he is slowly regaining comfort, peace, and faith that a human can mean something good. Maciuś is about 6 years old. He is a calm, gentle dog who is not a type of pushy cuddler and does not seek human attention. He needs time to trust and feel safe. However, once he opens up to someone and feels a bond - it is clear that he is starting to build a special relationship. On walks, Maciuś shows his calm nature - he walks nicely on a leash and enjoys exploring the world by the side of a human. He gets along with other dogs without any problems, he actually doesn't pay attention to them. Maciuś has degenerative hip problems, so he takes supplements to support his health and comfort. He has already had a castration surgery and now he needs what he may have been missing the most - a quiet home, patience, and someone who will show him that he is important.

Maciuś trafił do nas 29.05.2026 r. z ul. Zagórowskiej. Kiedy do nas przyjechał, jego stan chwytał za serce — był bardzo zakołtuniony i zaniedbany. Dziś powoli odzyskuje komfort, spokój i wiarę w to, że człowiek może oznaczać coś dobrego. Maciuś ma około 6 lat. To spokojny, delikatny psiak, który nie jest typem nachalnego przytulaka i nie zabiega o uwagę człowieka. Potrzebuje czasu, aby zaufać i poczuć się bezpiecznie. Kiedy jednak otworzy się przed kimś i poczuje więź — widać, że zaczyna budować wyjątkową relację. Na spacerach Maciuś pokazuje swoją spokojną naturę — bardzo ładnie chodzi na smyczy i czerpie przyjemność z odkrywania świata u boku człowieka. Z innymi psami dogaduje się bez problemu, właściwie zupełnie nie zwraca na nie uwagi. Maciuś ma problemy zwyrodnieniowe z biodrem, dlatego przyjmuje suplementy wspierające jego zdrowie i komfort. Jest już po zabiegu kastracji i teraz najbardziej potrzebuje tego, czego być może wcześniej brakowało mu najbardziej — spokojnego domu, cierpliwości i kogoś, kto pokaże mu, że jest ważny.

About Maciuś

What life with Maciuś looks like

Maciuś 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 Maciuś, answered.

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