Monte

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 5 months

Monte💔 Adopted as a puppy, returned to the animal shelter almost 5 years later. A huge dog tragedy😞 Monte doesn't cope well in the shelter. He returned to us almost a month ago, and he's still as stressed and lost as ever. He doesn't understand why his people haven't come back for him, why he's not in his home, but in this noisy animal shelter, in a concrete box… Is it his fault that he came back here? How it always is with returns-NIE😔 The owners' life situation changed, along with it the place where they no longer had permission for the dog. And so, we agree with you that all situations can be resolved if one wants—but it wasn't us who made the decision, but the owners. ❗️Now let's focus on finding this poor dog a home❗️ Monte is a very pleasant dog, gentle as a lamb, loving everyone, though in the current situation, he's absolutely lost and stressed. He generally walks nicely on a leash and responds to his name. He has no problem with other animals. The only issue is that he hasn't been taught to be alone at home—he was left on the yard (besides, he was a couch potato) his whole life while his owners were away. Of course, like every dog, he can learn to be alone, but it will require at least some work, which is now lacking… He's about 4-5 years old, a large dog reaching over the knee—currently weighing 31.5 kg, but he needs to lose some weight… He loves company of other dogs, and supposedly accepts cats. Kids shouldn't be a problem for him. Monte is staying at the animal shelter in Choszczno. He is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.

Monte💔 Adoptowany jako szczeniak, zwrócony do schroniska po prawie 5 latach. Ogromna psia tragedia😞 Monte nie radzi sobie w bidulu. Wrócił do nas prawie miesiąc temu, i cały ten czas jest tak samo zestresowany i zagubiony. Nie rozumie dlaczego jego ludzie dalej nie wrócili, dlaczego nie jest w swoim domu, tylko w tym głośnym schronisku, w betonowym boksie… Czy to jego wina, że tu wrócił? Jak to zawsze przy zwrotach-NIE😔 Sytuacja życiowa właścicieli się zmieniła, a razem z nią miejsce zamieszkania gdzie nie było zgody na psa. I tak, zgadzamy się z wami że wszystkie sytuacje można rozwiązywać, jeśli się chce-ale to nie my byliśmy decyzyjni, tylko byli właściciele. ❗️Teraz wszyscy skupmy się na szukaniu biedakowi domu❗️ Monte to bardzo przyjemny psiak, łagodny jak baranek, kocha wszystkich, choć w obecnej sytuacji jest absolutnie zagubiony i zestresowany. Ogólnie grzecznie chodzi na smyczy i reaguje na swoje imię. Nie ma problemu z innymi zwierzętami. Jedyny jego problem to to, że nie jest nauczony zostawania samemu w domu-całe życie na czas nieobecności właścicieli zostawał na podwórku (poza tym był domowym kanapowcem). Oczywiście jak każdy pies może się jeszcze nauczyć bycia w samotności, ale to będzie wymagało choć minimum pracy, której teraz zabrakło… Ma około 4-5 lat, jest dużym psem sięgającym za kolano-aktualnie waży 31,5 kg, ale musi sporo zrzucić… Lubi towarzystwo psiaków, koty podobno także akceptuje. Dzieci nie powinny być dla chłopaka problemem. Monte przebywa w schronisku w Choszcznie. Jest wykastrowany, zaszczepiony, i zaczipowany. Jeśli ktoś chce mu pomóc inaczej niż adopcją-przyda się karma Light😉 📞W sprawie adopcji prosimy o kontakt z wolontariuszką: 733 Zuza

About Monte

What life with Monte looks like

Monte is a large 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Monte, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Monte?
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 Monte on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Monte 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 Monte 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 Monte 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 Monte 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.
