How do I contact the shelter about Maja?

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

Can I adopt Maja 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 Maja 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 Maja 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 Maja 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.

Maja

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 11 years

Maja is looking for a home! 🐾 This tiny, approximately 11-month-old female dog arrived at our shelter on June 10th of this year. She weighs about 9 kg and immediately catches the eye with her unique, chocolate-colored coat. 😍 Maja came to us extremely underweight. Her past hasn’t been kind to her, which is why this young lady is still slowly regaining her strength and health. At first, she was very frightened. The world and new people utterly paralyzed her. However, time, patience, and the love of her caregivers have worked wonders! Maja has opened up, learned to trust, and today she absolutely loves our company, cuddling, and all kinds of affection. Although she’s still a teenage dog, Maja is remarkably well-balanced. She gets along peacefully with other dogs. She doesn’t seek out conflicts, but neither does she initiate wild play—instead, she prefers to spend her time calmly observing the world from the run. ❤ We don’t yet know how she’ll react to having a cat as a companion, since we haven’t had the chance to test that at the shelter. She absolutely loves going for walks! Getting out beyond the shelter grounds brings her immense joy. Maja needs a calm, safe, and empathetic home. We’re looking for someone who will complete her physical and emotional recovery, provide her with the very best care, and show her that human hands are meant only for loving and feeding. 🥰 She’s spayed, dewormed, vaccinated, and microchipped.

Maja szuka domku! 🐾 Ta młodziutka, około 11-miesięczna sunia trafiła do naszego schroniska 10 czerwca tego roku. Waży około 9 kg i przyciąga wzrok swoim wyjątkowym, czekoladowym umaszczeniem. 😍 Maja trafiła do nas skrajnie wychudzona. Przeszłość jej nie oszczędzała, dlatego ta młoda dama jest wciąż powoli wraca do pełni sił i zdrowieje. Początkowo była bardzo wystraszona. Świat i nowi ludzie bardzo ją paraliżowali. Jednak czas, cierpliwość i miłość opiekunów zdziałały cuda! Maja otworzyła się, zaufała i dziś nad życie kocha nasze towarzystwo, przytulanie i wszelkie czułości. Choć to jeszcze psi nastolatek, Maja jest niezwykle zrównoważona. W stosunkach z innymi psami jest bezkonfliktowa. Nie szuka zaczepek, ale też sama nie inicjuje szalonych zabaw - czas na wybiegu woli spędzać spokojnie, obserwując świat. ❤Nie znamy jeszcze jej reakcji na kocie towarzystwo, ponieważ nie mamy okazji tego sprawdzić w schronisku. Bardzo lubi spacery! Wyjścia poza teren schroniska sprawiają jej ogromną radość. Maja potrzebuje domu spokojnego, bezpiecznego i pełnego empatii. Szukamy dla niej człowieka, który dokończy proces jej fizycznej i psychicznej regeneracji, otoczy ją najlepszą opieką i pokaże, że ludzka ręka służy tylko do kochania i karmienia. 🥰 Jest wysterylizowana, odrobaczona, zaszczepiona i zaczipowana.

About Maja

What life with Maja looks like

Maja is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Fundacja Puszatek in Warszawa.

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.
