How do I contact the shelter about Mela?

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

Can I adopt Mela if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Fundacja Puszatek 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 Mela 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 Mela 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 Fundacja Puszatek early rather than rehoming privately; they know Mela 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.

Mela

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 13 months

She looks at you as if she knew all the answers to questions you haven't asked yet. This gaze says, "I need you, but you need me too." Mela is a gentle senior with dark fur and silver highlights on her face, waiting for someone to become her whole world. Although her eyes show the wisdom of years, a spark of joy still glows in her heart. Who is this dog for? She's the perfect companion for those who can appreciate peace and the magic of small moments. For someone who likes to take leisurely walks, stopping to smell the forest or watch the leaves dance in the wind. Mela is so gentle that she'll fit in well with a family with children; the little ones love taking her for walks, and she responds to their presence with gentleness and patience. Who are we looking for? We dream of a home where Mela will have her own warm spot, a few short walks a day, and plenty of cuddles. She doesn't need a big garden; what's more important to her is the human. She'd be happy to live with another dog, as she's open and friendly towards her four-legged friends. What's worth knowing about her? This lady loves walks, they don't have to be far, as long as they're together. She walks calmly and gracefully on a leash. At the vet, she behaves perfectly, allowing herself to be examined, petted, and brushed. She has hypothyroidism, but with the right medication, she leads a normal, happy life. Thanks to regular care at the shelter, she feels great and enjoys every day. Weight: 15 kg Leash: yes Attitude towards dogs: positive She has been spayed, dewormed, de-fleaed, vaccinated, chipped, and registered in the Safe Animal database. The dog is located at: Funny Pets Shelter in Czartki Czartki 49b, 98-200 Sieradz powiat sieradzki, łódzkie voivodeship 43 828 36 46 - general

About Mela

What life with Mela looks like

Mela is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Fundacja Puszatek in Warszawa.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇵🇱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.
