Pręcik

Mixed Breed · Male · Senior · 10 years

There are just a few days left for us, and already he has stolen many volunteer hearts. In his small body lives a puppy who with all his might loves humans. And although he is not trusting in the first contact, it only takes a few moments for him to start snuggling up to a human and giving out juicy licks. Pręcik is most likely blind, though we get the impression that perhaps he can see changes in the intensity of light. He can accurately locate a human. Pręcik has been with us for a very short time, we haven't yet taken him to the vet – ophthalmologist, but we will catch up soon. Despite his disability, Pręcik manages wonderfully. He effortlessly finds his food bowls, knows where his bed is, and can enter the kennel. The kennel and the shelter box do not suit this delicate puppy… On walks, he is sprightly and confident. He marches bravely ahead, does not climb trees, and with a gentle lead, he immediately returns to the right path. His canine acquaintances are met with calmness. He curiously sniffs his fellow dogs, and then his little tail curls into a spiral. In interactions with other dogs, he is gentle and friendly. Pręcik was found in a heartbreaking state. His fur was a tangled mess weighing 4 kg, and the puppy himself weighed 5 kg, making it hard to imagine how he carried such a burden. The little one has already experienced neglect and homelessness in his life. From the bottom of our hearts, we ask for a home for him, so that from now on, he can experience only warmth and love from humans.

W maleńkim ciałku Pręcika mieszka piesek, który z całych sił kocha człowieka. I choć w pierwszym kontakcie bywa nieufny, to wystarczy kilka chwil, aby zaczął tulić się do człowieka, rozdawać soczyste buziaki czy wskakiwać łapkami na nogi domagając się głaskania. Pręcik jest niewidomy, ma całkowity zanik siatkówek. Wzrok tracił latami, a w tym czasie bezbłędnie nauczył się poruszać po pomieszczeniach. Ludzi lokalizuje głównie słuchem, nawet wówczas, gdy wydaje im się, że poruszają się bezszelestnie. W boksie bezbłędnie lokalizuje swoją budkę, posłanka. Miseczki również Autem, można rzec, podróżuje poprawnie. Jest strasznym wiercipiętą i kiedy tylko zaczyna się nudzić drepce po siedzeniu. Na spacerach jest dziarski, pewny siebie. Dzielnie maszeruje przed siebie, nie wchodzi na drzewa, wystarczy delikatnie pokierować go smyczką, a od razu wraca na właściwy tor. Psie znajomości zawiera ze spokojem. Ciekawsko obwąchuje psich kumpli, a wtedy jego mały ogonek zwija się w obwarzanek. W relacjach z napotkanymi psami jest delikatny i przyjacielski. Pręcik został znaleziony w opłakanym stanie. Jego futro było wielkim kołtunem, który ważył 4 kg. Sam pręcik waży 6 kg i aż trudno wyobrazić sobie, że dźwigał na sobie taki ciężar. Maluch doświadczył już w swoim życiu zaniedbania i bezdomności. Z całego serca prosimy o dom dla niego, aby od teraz doświadczał od ludzi tylko ciepła i miłości. Buda i schroniskowy boks tak bardzo nie pasują do tego delikatnego psa. W schronisku Pęcik został oceniony na 10 lat. Jednak obraz echa serca pokazuje, że jest on dużo młodszym psem i ma maksymalnie 5 lat.

About Pręcik

What life with Pręcik looks like

Pręcik is a small senior mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko dla Bezdomnych Zwierząt w Milanówku in Poland.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇵🇱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 Pręcik, answered.

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