Nela

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

She’s been with us since July 4th. She’s still getting into shape and needs to gain some weight. We’re getting to know each other better and we’re already certain that she’ll become a wonderful, devoted dog :) Nela still shows signs of anxiety; loud noises from the neighborhood—such as passing trucks or gunshots—stress her out. When that happens, she listens nervously with her tail tucked between her legs :( She releases her tension by playing with a ball or seeking comfort close to her human companion. She’s happy to bring toys over and hand them to her caregiver :) For now, we’ve put off grooming and bathing her ;) She’s absolutely adorable, friendly, and stays close to us during walks. She’ll be ready for adoption in the second half of August, but we’re already looking for her new family. Nela is 4 years old and will be given up for adoption after spaying. For inquiries, please contact TOZ Krotoszyn at 660662171 or 660662191—we don’t respond to text messages, so please call us from Monday to Friday between [times not specified].

Nela na początku wykazywała lęk, stresowały ją głośne dźwięki z okolicy, np. przejeżdżająca ciężarówka, wystrzały, itp. Nasłuchiwała wtedy nerwowo z podkulonym ogonem. Obecnie stała się odważniejsza a w sytuacjach stresujących potrafi głośno zaznaczyć swoją obecność. Napięcie rozładowuje na zabawie piłką lub szuka wsparcia przy człowieku. Zabawki chętnie przynosi i oddaje opiekunowi :) Jest przekochana, przyjazna, na spacerze trzyma się blisko nas. Potrafi jednak wykazywać zachowanie obronne przy obcych osobach, w sytuacji kiedy poczuje się zagrożona. Nela ma 4 lata, szukamy odpowiedzialnego domu.

About Nela

What life with Nela looks like

Nela is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko Krotoszyn in Krotoszyn.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Nela, answered.

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