NOVELKA

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 8 months

Novelcia is approximately 8 years old and unfortunately has a difficult past - she had to fend for herself for a long time. When she was caught, she was terrified of absolutely everything. People, leashes, new places... Everything was completely new and very difficult for her. However, over time, thanks to the patience, work and heart of our volunteers, Novelka began to open up more and more. And today, you can really see how much she has changed! Now she takes nice walks, goes potty outside, sniffs and explores the world with great interest. She is increasingly initiating contact with humans, she lets herself be touched without any problem and she wants to be close to humans more and more. This is a huge reason for our joy, because not long ago she was so afraid of human touch. Novelka also gets along well with other dogs and lives with another female dog. The first weeks in a new home may be difficult for her - she will have to find her way in a completely new situation. However, we strongly believe that she will open up just as beautifully as she did with us, and even more so. She needs above all time, patience, peace and a bit of work. We know that once she feels safe, she will be a wonderful companion for life. Maybe you will show Novelka that a human can be safe and that a home can mean love, peace and security?

Novelcia ma około 8 lat i niestety ma za sobą trudną przeszłość- przez długi czas musiała radzić sobie sama. Kiedy została złapana, była przerażona absolutnie wszystkim. Ludźmi, smyczą, nowym miejscem… Wszystko było dla niej zupełnie nowe i bardzo trudne. Jednak z czasem, dzięki ogromowi cierpliwości, pracy i serca naszych wolontariuszy, Novelka zaczęła coraz bardziej się otwierać. I dziś naprawdę widać, jak wielką przemianę przeszła! Teraz już pięknie wychodzi na spacery , załatwia się na zewnątrz, z ogromnym zainteresowaniem węszy i poznaje świat. Coraz częściej sama inicjuje kontakt z człowiekiem, bez problemu daje się dotknąć i coraz chętniej chce, żeby człowiek był blisko niej. To dla nas ogromny powód do radości, bo jeszcze niedawno tak bardzo bała się ludzkiego dotyku. Novelka bezproblemowo dogaduje się również z innymi psami, na co dzień mieszka z inną sunią. Pierwsze tygodnie w nowym domu mogą być dla niej trudne- będzie musiała odnaleźć się w zupełnie nowej sytuacji. Mocno jednak wierzymy, że otworzy się tak samo pięknie, jak zrobiła to u nas, a potem jeszcze bardziej. Potrzebuje przede wszystkim czasu, cierpliwości, spokoju i odrobiny pracy. Wiemy, że kiedy już poczuje się bezpiecznie, będzie wspaniałą towarzyszką życia. Może to właśnie Ty pokażesz Novelce, że człowiek może być bezpieczny, a dom może oznaczać miłość, spokój i bezpieczeństwo?

About NOVELKA

What life with NOVELKA looks like

NOVELKA is a small 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 NOVELKA, answered.

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