How do I contact the shelter about MARKO?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Schronisko Promyk Gdańsk handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw MARKO on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt MARKO if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Schronisko Promyk Gdańsk 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 MARKO 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 MARKO 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 Promyk Gdańsk early rather than rehoming privately; they know MARKO 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.

PIESEK MARKO OK. 3 YEARS 616093200580369 (68/25) SIZE: SMALL VACCINATIONS: YES CAGE: 7 Hello! I'm Marko and I perfectly embody the saying "in a small body, a big spirit"! For me, my size is relative – when I go for a walk with my person, I can hide behind them from every other dog. But I'll do it in the way that befits a little brave dog, after all, "one must stand up to the forces and personal dignities in life." And you'll have plenty of dignity with me: I'm not a fan of photo sessions, because who would put a proper dog in a photo album... I've been neutered, and it shows – I've got a good color. Besides, I'm dog-perfect – I walk well on a leash, as long as you find a clip size that suits my build. I behave well indoors, because I don't see the point of making a mess there. I love walks and usually pass by other canine beings in a peaceful manner, as long as they do the same. I love being petted and can even push myself into a doggy sit to get my fair share of treats. If I'm done, I'll just leave. To avoid being too cutesy – I'm a great test subject for how much I can do. So if you can't clearly and consistently set boundaries, I will set them for you 😉 A little dog is still a dog, so if you treat me with respect, I'll return the respect. I'm definitely not going to be a "purse dog," I need walks and I enjoy longer ones, not just a lap around the fireplace. I love learning and I love cookies, so if you can connect the dots, we'll definitely get along well. Shall we get to know each other better? I'm inviting you, after all, small is beautiful!

PIESEK MARKO OK. 3 LATA 616093200580369 (68/25) WIELKOŚĆ: MAŁY SZCZEPIENIA: TAK BOKS: 7 Cześć! Jestem Marko i idealnie obrazuję powiedzenie „w małym ciele wielki duch”! Bo dla mnie mój gabaryt jest względny – jeśli idę ze swoim człowiekiem na spacer, to zasłonię go przed każdym psem. Ale zrobię to tak, jak na małego dzielnego pieska przystało, wszak „chamstwu w życiu należy się przeciwstawiać siłom i godnościom osobistom”. A godności ci u mnie dostatek: nie zostałem fanem sesji foto, bo kto to widział, żeby porządnemu psu kartotekę zakładać… Oburczałem wolo-ciotkę, jak mi obrożę zmieniała, widać dobrała mało pieski kolor. Poza tym jestem psieidealny – świetnie chodzę na smyczy, o ile dobierzesz rozmiar karabińczyka do mej postury. Kulturalnie zachowuję się w pomieszczeniach, bo nie widzę sensu, żeby w nich bałaganić. Kocham spacery i raczej spokojnie mijam inne psowate istoty, o ile one też zachowają spokój. Lubię głaski i sam się potrafię pchać na kolana, żeby dostać należną porcję miziania. Jeśli będę miał dość, to po prostu odejdę. Żeby nie było tak zbyt sielankowo – świetnie testuję, na ile sobie mogę pozwolić. Więc jeśli nie umiesz jasno i konsekwentnie stawiać granic, to ja je postawię 😉 Wiesz, mały pies to wciąż pies, więc jeśli będziesz mnie traktować z szacunkiem, to ja ten szacunek odwzajemnię. Na pewno nie zrobisz ze mnie „torebkowego breloczka”, potrzebuję spacerów i lubię takie nawet dłuższe, nie dla mnie rundki wokół komina. Lubię się uczyć, lubię ciastki, więc jak dobrze połączysz te kropki, to na pewno będzie nam razem dobrze. To co, poznamy się bliżej? Zapraszam, wszak małe jest piękne!

About MARKO

What life with MARKO looks like

MARKO is a small adult dog waiting at Schronisko Promyk Gdańsk in Gdansk.

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.
