How do I contact the shelter about Pola?

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

Can I adopt Pola 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 Pola 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 Pola 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 Pola 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.

Pola

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

Pola and her sister shared the fate of thousands of dogs in Poland. As unwanted puppies, they were abandoned. They were only 6-7 months old and had no good relationship with humans. The puppy stage is very important in a dog's development and affects the entire life of the animal. These two female dogs were unlucky, probably had sporadic or no contact with people :( Since spring, when they arrived at our animal shelter and the stress slightly subsided, volunteers have been doing tremendous work to make up for all the deficiencies of Pola and Nina. Recently, they managed to develop walking on a leash, it's not yet perfect, but it's a huge step ;) Pola is cheerful, feels very well in the company of other dogs, encourages them to play. She loves running on the yard among members of her breed. She is not yet convinced about the relationship with people, touch is still something unusual for her. She gladly takes treats. Due to her shy character and lack of socialization, we are looking for a home in a quiet area, without small children. Nina and Pola are in the weight range of 10-15kg.

Pola z siostrą podzieliły los tysięcy psów w Polsce. Jako niechciane szczenięta, zostały porzucone. Miały wtedy zaledwie 6-7 miesięcy i żadnej dobrej relacji z człowiekiem. Okres szczenięcy jest bardzo istotny w rozwoju psów i rzutuje na całe życie zwierzęcia. Te dwie suczki nie miały szczęścia, prawdopodobnie też kontakt z człowiekiem był sporadyczny, bądź żaden :( Od wiosny, kiedy znalazły się w naszym schronisku a stres trochę odpuścił, wolontariusze wykonują ogromną pracę, żeby nadrobić wszystkie zaległości Poli i Niny. W ostatnim czasie udało się wypracować chodzenie na smyczy, nie jest jeszcze idealnie, ale to ogromny krok ;) Pola jest wesoła, bardzo dobrze czuje się w towarzystwie innych psów, zachęca je do zabawy. Uwielbia biegać na wybiegu wśród przedstawicieli swojego gatunku. Nie jest jeszcze przekonana co do relacji z ludźmi, dotyk jeszcze jest dla niej czymś nietypowym. Chętnie za to zabiera przysmaki. Ze względu na lękowy charakter i braki socjalizacyjne, poszukujemy domu w spokojnej okolicy, bez małych dzieci. Nina i Pola są w przedziale wagowym 10-15kg.

About Pola

What life with Pola looks like

Pola is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko Krotoszyn in Krotoszyn.

An young 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.
