Rumi

Female · Puppy · 11 months

Meet our new, adorable foster! Her name from home is Rumi, although we call her Nenufar or Nenusia. Why? Well, the dog was found swimming alone in Lake Kamionowski and... suddenly started to sink! Witnesses and the invaluable Trop Warsaw Foundation rushed to help, rescued the girl and brought her to Paluch. Her previous caretaker was not interested in taking the dog back. And so the young one came to us - for now she has introduced herself as a very cheerful and loving doggy princess! We've already noticed that Rumi is a bit uncertain around new people, especially men. But there's no fear that a few good treats can't overcome! ;-) Nenusia with a little patience can open up to any calm person. Nenusia is waiting for a patient, loving home that will take into account the needs of the puppy she still is and allow her to settle down peacefully. We also invite you to the social media of our volunteer group, where you will find reports from the lives of our wards in the Shelter, information about adoptions, greetings from homes, educational posts and many others!

Poznajcie naszą nową, uroczą podopieczną! Jej imię z domu to Rumi, choć my nazywamy ją Nenufarem lub Nenusią. Dlaczego? Otóż sunia została odnaleziona, gdy pływała sama w Jeziorze Kamionowskim i… nagle zaczęła się w nim topić! Na pomoc ruszyli świadkowie zdarzenia i niezastąpiona Fundacja Trop Warszawa, która pomogła wyłowić dziewczynkę i przywiozła na Paluch. Jej dotychczasowa opiekunka nie była zainteresowana obiorem suni. I tak oto młoda trafiła do nas - póki co dała nam się poznać jako bardzo wesoła i kochająca całą sobą człowieka psia księżniczka! Zauważyliśmy już, że Rumi jest nieco niepewna w stosunku do nowopoznanych osób, zwłaszcza mężczyzn. Ale nie ma takiego strachu, którego nie pokona kilka dobrych smaczków! ;-) Nenusia przy odrobinie cierpliwości potrafi otworzyć się przed każdą spokojną osobą. Nenusia czeka na cierpliwy, kochający dom, który będzie miał na uwadze potrzeby szczeniaka, którym sunia nadal jest i pozwoli jej się spokojnie zaaklimatyzować. Zapraszamy też na media społecznościowe naszej grupy wolontariuszy, gdzie znajdziecie relacje z życia naszych podopiecznych w Schronisku, informacje o adopcjach, pozdrowienia z domów, posty edukacyjne i wiele innych!

About Rumi

What life with Rumi looks like

Rumi is a small puppy/kitten dog waiting at Schronisko Na Paluchu in Warsaw.

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 Rumi, answered.

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