Adopt Misiek

Mixed Breed · Male

Good day, my name is Misiek, I am a small, young dog. On January 12, 2023, I was found by a woman in the area of CH Platan, located near pl. Teatralnego. I was taken to the animal shelter. Inspectors from TOZ received information about my owners, visited them, and also started procedures regarding abandonment. At the animal shelter, the beginning was very difficult for both me and the staff, who had to take me for walks, perform cleaning tasks in my box, and feed me. Why was this so difficult? Because I had learned that human hands scold and cause pain. I was not treated well in my home. Therefore, any action performed by the staff must be carefully thought through and movements careful, so that I never feel threatened. It is hard to trust when those closest to me did such harm. There is a lot of work ahead, but fortunately I ended up in a place where the fate of animals is not indifferent. I hope that soon you will read the description in a more cheerful version. For now, I am learning again how to build a relationship between a person and a dog. Keep your fingers crossed. I have also been vaccinated, dewormed and microchipped. I have already had the neutering procedure.

Dzień dobry mam na imię Misiek, jestem małym, młodym psem.12 stycznia 2023 roku zostałem znaleziony rzekomo przez pewną kobietę w okolicach CH Platan, mieszczącego się w okolicach pl. Teatralnego. Zostałem przewieziony do schroniska. Inspektorzy TOZ otrzymali informacje dotyczące moich właścicieli, złożyli im wizytę, rozpoczęli również czynności w sprawie porzucenia. W schronisku początki były bardzo trudne zarówno dla mnie jak i pracowników, którzy musieli mnie wyprowadzać na spacery, prowadzić czynności porządkowe w moim boksie, karmić mnie. Dlaczego to takie trudne? Ponieważ zdążyłem nauczyć się, że ręce człowieka karcą, sprawiają ból. Nie byłem dobrze traktowany w swoim domu. Dlatego jakakolwiek czynność wykonywana przez pracowników musi być dobrze przemyślana a ruchy uważne, abym w żadnym wypadku nie poczuł się zagrożony. Ciężko jest zaufać gdy najbliższe mi osoby wyrządziły taką krzywdę. Czeka mnie dużo pracy na szczęście trafiłem do miejsca, w którym los zwierząt nie jest obojętny. Mam nadzieję, że niedługo przeczytają Państwo opis w nieco weselszym wydaniu. Póki co uczę się na nowo nawiązywania relacji człowiek-pies. Trzymajcie kciuki.Zostałem również zaszczepiony, odrobaczony oraz zaczipowany. Jestem już po zabiegu kastracji.

About Misiek

What life with Misiek looks like

Misiek is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko Zabrze in Zabrze.

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 Misiek, answered.

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