How do I contact the shelter about Punia?

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

Can I adopt Punia 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 Punia 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 Punia 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 Punia 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.

Punia

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 4 months

🐾 PUNIA LOOKS FOR A HOME 🏡❤️ Punia is approximately 3-4 years old and is a small, long-haired female. She came to us as an extremely withdrawn and very scared dog. Initially, she avoided contact with people, and the stress was so strong that for the first few days she did not even relieve her physiological needs. Today she has made huge progress. She willingly approaches people she knows, likes to cuddle and is becoming more and more confident in everyday life. She is still a sensitive dog and needs time to trust new people. Punia still can't walk on a leash, so she will find herself best in a quiet home with a safely fenced yard, where she can gradually learn new things. Adoption to an apartment is also possible for people with experience with fearful dogs and willing to work with her patiently, without exerting pressure. We are looking for a quiet home that understands that building trust takes time. In return, Punia will repay with great affection and will be a faithful companion for many years. ❤️ 📩 If you want to meet Punia and give her a safe home, contact us.

🐾 PUNIA SZUKA DOMU 🏡❤️ Punia ma około 3–4 lat i jest drobną, długowłosą sunią. Do nas trafiła jako pies skrajnie wycofany i bardzo przestraszony. Początkowo unikała kontaktu z ludźmi, a stres był tak silny, że przez pierwsze dni nie załatwiała nawet swoich potrzeb fizjologicznych. Dziś zrobiła ogromne postępy. Chętnie podchodzi do znanych sobie osób, lubi się przytulać i coraz odważniej odnajduje się w codziennym życiu. Nadal jest jednak psem wrażliwym i potrzebuje czasu, aby zaufać nowym ludziom. Punia nie potrafi jeszcze chodzić na smyczy, dlatego najlepiej odnajdzie się w spokojnym domu z bezpiecznie ogrodzoną posesją, gdzie będzie mogła stopniowo uczyć się nowych rzeczy. Możliwa jest również adopcja do mieszkania przez osoby mające doświadczenie z psami lękowymi i gotowe pracować z nią cierpliwie, bez wywierania presji. Szukamy dla niej spokojnego domu, który zrozumie, że budowanie zaufania wymaga czasu. W zamian Punia odwdzięczy się ogromnym przywiązaniem i będzie wierną towarzyszką na długie lata. ❤️ 📩 Jeśli chcesz poznać Punię i podarować jej bezpieczny dom, skontaktuj się z nami.

About Punia

What life with Punia looks like

Punia 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.
