Medea

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Medea – a female dog born around 2012, has been at the animal shelter since 2017. For a long time, she was overlooked due to her shyness and lack of trust in people. With great patience and caution, we are working on building mutual trust. Despite the passage of time, she remains very shy. We are looking for a responsible and aware home that will give her peace, patience, and support – we believe that in a home environment, she will overcome her fears much faster.

MEDEA – suczka urodzona około 2012 roku, w schronisku przebywa od 2017 roku. Przez długi czas była pomijana ze względu na swoją lękliwość i brak zaufania do ludzi. Z dużą cierpliwością i ostrożnością, pracujemy nad budowaniem wzajemnego zaufania. Pomimo upływu czasu wciąż jest bardzo nieśmiała. Szukamy dla niej odpowiedzialnego i świadomego domu, który da jej spokój, cierpliwość i wsparcie – wierzymy, że w domowych warunkach znacznie szybciej pokona swoje lęki.

About Medea

What life with Medea looks like

Medea is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Oaza dla Zwierząt Mielec 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 Medea, answered.

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