Margaret

Female · Adult · 5 years

Margaret is looking for a calm and patient home! Margaret is over 5 years old and weighs about 25-30 kg. She came to us when she was wandering alone. She is a sensitive and energetic female dog who is friendly to humans, but needs time and a calm approach to feel more confident. Margaret can walk on a leash, but still needs support because she can get scared. Our observations also show that she is afraid of men. She needs a caregiver who can help her build confidence step by step and show her that she can feel safe. The dog is well-behaved during grooming and veterinary visits. Margaret could live with a gentle, calm dog that could be a support for her in a new home, after prior acquaintance. Due to her sensitivity, we are looking for a home without young children or with children over 12 years old. Margaret should not be left alone in the yard. If she gets bored, she may try to find her way out of the fence, so the area should be well secured. A home where she will live with a person and have regular walks and activities will also be a good solution. We are looking for a patient and calm caregiver for Margaret who will give her time, support and help her gain confidence. PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN COLLAR AND LEASH when adopting. Margaret is under the care of OTOZ Animals Shelter in Tczew. Registration number at the shelter: 105/26 The dog is vaccinated, chipped, dewormed and spayed. Contact for adoption: 58 531 96 56

Margaret szuka spokojnego i cierpliwego domu! Margaret ma powyżej 5 lat i waży około 25-30 kg. Trafiła do nas, gdy błąkała się samotnie. To wrażliwa i energiczna suczka, która w stosunku do człowieka jest sympatyczna, ale potrzebuje czasu i spokojnego podejścia, aby poczuć się pewniej. Margaret potrafi chodzić na smyczy, jednak nadal potrzebuje wsparcia, ponieważ potrafi się przestraszyć. Z naszych obserwacji wynika również, że boi się mężczyzn. Potrzebuje więc opiekuna, który pomoże jej krok po kroku budować pewność siebie i pokaże, że może czuć się bezpiecznie. Suczka jest grzeczna podczas zabiegów pielęgnacyjnych oraz wizyt u weterynarza. Margaret mogłaby zamieszkać z łagodnym, spokojnym psem, który mógłby być dla niej wsparciem w nowym domu, po wcześniejszym zapoznaniu. Ze względu na jej wrażliwość szukamy domu bez małych dzieci lub z dziećmi powyżej 12. roku życia. Margaret nie powinna również zostawać sama na podwórku. Jeśli zacznie się nudzić, może próbować znaleźć sobie drogę poza ogrodzeniem, dlatego teren powinien być dobrze zabezpieczony. Dobrym rozwiązaniem będzie również dom, w którym będzie mieszkała z człowiekiem i miała zapewnione regularne spacery oraz zajęcie. Szukamy dla Margaret cierpliwego i spokojnego opiekuna, który da jej czas, wsparcie i pomoże jej nabrać pewności siebie. PRZY ADOPCJI PROSIMY O POSIADANIE WŁASNYCH SZELEK ORAZ SMYCZY Margaret przebywa pod opieką OTOZ Animals Schroniska w Tczewie. Numer ewidencyjny w schronisku: 105/26 Suczka jest zaszczepiona, zachipowana, odrobaczona i wysterylizowana. Kontakt w sprawie adopcji: 58 531 96 56

About Margaret

What life with Margaret looks like

Margaret is a large adult dog waiting at OTOZ Animals — Schronisko w Tczewie in Poland.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Margaret, answered.

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