Maja

Female · Adult · 5 years

Maja arrived at the animal shelter in mid-August, along with her dog companion Gucio 0801/25. It is said they lived together in a house, but for reasons unknown to us, they ended up at the animal shelter. Maja is a tiny, several-year-old female dog, curious about everything happening around her. She is delicate and friendly towards people, and has no problem with new people. She badly suffers from living alone in the kennel - she whines and calls out, hoping someone will take an interest in her. She loves walks, which bring her relief and the opportunity to meet friends. For Mai, we are looking for a forever home with people who will take care of her and provide for her canine needs.

Maja trafiła do schroniska w połowie sierpnia, wraz ze swoim psim kolegą Guciem 0801/25. Podobno mieszkali razem w domu, z nieznanych nam przyczyn znaleźli się w schronisku. Maja to malutka, kilkuletnia sunia, ciekawa wszystkiego co się wokół dzieje. Delikatna i przyjazna dla ludzi, nie ma problemu z nowymi osobami. Bardzo źle znosi samotne życie w boksie - użala się i nawołuje, żeby ktoś się nią zainteresował. Spacery uwielbia, przynoszą jej ulgę i możliwość spotkań z kumplami. Dla Mai szukamy domu na zawsze, z ludźmi którzy o nią zadbają oraz zapewnią jej realizację psich potrzeb.

About Maja

What life with Maja looks like

Maja is a small adult dog waiting at Schronisko Na Paluchu in Warsaw.

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.

Note from the shelter: Does not handle being alone well, becomes distressed and vocal when isolated

🇵🇱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 Maja, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Maja?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Schronisko Na Paluchu 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 — Schronisko Na Paluchu 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 Schronisko Na Paluchu 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.
