Maya

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 7 years

Maya is 7 years old and an incredibly charming female dog. She walks beautifully on a leash, loves people and gets along great with other dogs. She came to us extremely emaciated, but today she enjoys life again and is full of energy. All that's missing for her happiness is a loving home and her human.

PL·Show original

Maya ma 7 lat i jest niezwykle uroczą sunią. Pięknie chodzi na smyczy, kocha ludzi i świetnie dogaduje się z innymi psami. Trafiła do nas skrajnie wychudzona, ale dziś znów cieszy się życiem i jest pełna sił. Do pełni szczęścia brakuje jej już tylko kochającego domu i swojego człowieka.

About Maya

What life with Maya looks like

Maya is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko Pod Wiatrakami (Ostrów Wlkp.) 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 Maya, answered.

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