How do I contact the shelter about Pima?

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 Pima on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Pima 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 Pima 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 Pima 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 Pima 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.

Adopt Pima

Mixed Breed · Female

Hello, my name is Pima. I am a young, large female dog in the German shepherd type. I came to the animal shelter on March 5, 2026. They say I was found near Park Pileckiego in Zabrze. I am a real energy bomb, but also a great source of joy. I love people and gladly make contact with them. I have a lot of enthusiasm and curiosity about the world. I can respond to commands, especially when I know a reward is waiting for me. However, I need a moment to focus on the person and build a relationship with them. Once I get to know someone and trust them, cooperation comes much easier for me. I'm looking for a caregiver who is ready to spend time with me, be patient, and guide me properly. I am young, full of energy, and have great potential – with the right person, I can become a wonderful companion. I have current vaccinations and deworming. Soon I will have a spaying procedure. Maybe I will find my home with you?

Cześć, mam na imię Pima. Jestem młodą, dużą suczką w typie owczarka niemieckiego. Do schroniska trafiłam 5 marca 2026 roku. Podobno zostałam znaleziona w okolicach Park Pileckiego w Zabrzu.Jestem prawdziwą bombą energii, ale też ogromnej radości. Bardzo lubię ludzi i chętnie nawiązuję z nimi kontakt. Mam w sobie dużo entuzjazmu i ciekawości świata.Potrafię reagować na komendy, szczególnie wtedy, gdy wiem, że czeka na mnie nagroda. Potrzebuję jednak chwili, żeby skupić się na człowieku i zbudować z nim relację. Kiedy już kogoś poznam i zaufam, współpraca przychodzi mi dużo łatwiej.Szukam opiekuna, który będzie gotowy poświęcić mi czas, cierpliwość i odpowiednio mnie poprowadzić. Jestem młoda, pełna energii i mam ogromny potencjał – z właściwym człowiekiem mogę stać się wspaniałą towarzyszką. Posiadam aktualne szczepienia, odrobaczenia. Niebawem czeka mnie zabieg sterylizacji. Może właśnie u Ciebie znajdę swój dom?

About Pima

What life with Pima looks like

Pima 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.
