How do I contact the shelter about Puszek?

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

Can I adopt Puszek 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 Puszek 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 Puszek 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 Puszek 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 Puszek

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Hello, my name is Puszek. I am a large, black and tan dog with an even bigger heart. I was born in June 2018 and I dream very much of finally finding my true forever home. On May 19, 2026, Zabrze highway police found me, disoriented, near the viaduct over the A4 highway on Chudowska Street. It was a very dangerous place, full of noise and speeding cars. My life wasn't easy. In a short time, I had several homes, but none of them turned out to be the true one—full of love and care. Unfortunately, it seems that someone helped me end up in this difficult situation. That's why my return to previous caretakers was delayed. The saddest part, however, is that no one even asks about me…After all, I still wait. I wait for someone to look at me with tenderness and give me a chance to start anew. I am a large, fluffy misfit with a gentle heart. Despite what I've gone through, I still trust humans and very much need closeness, peaceful walks, and a warm home. I dream of finally feeling that I am important to someone. Maybe you will give me a place that I will never have to leave?

Cześć, jestem Puszek. Duży, czarny, misiowaty psiak z jeszcze większym sercem. Urodziłem się w czerwcu 2018 roku i bardzo marzę o tym, by w końcu znaleźć swój prawdziwy dom — taki już na zawsze.19 maja 2026 roku zabrzańscy policjanci z drogówki znaleźli mnie, gdy błąkałem się zdezorientowany w rejonie wiaduktu nad autostradą A4 przy ulicy Chudowskiej. To było bardzo niebezpieczne miejsce, pełne hałasu i pędzących samochodów. Moje życie nie było łatwe. W krótkim czasie miałem już kilka domów, ale żaden nie okazał się tym prawdziwym — pełnym miłości i troski. Niestety wygląda na to, że ktoś pomógł mi znaleźć się w tej trudnej sytuacji. Dlatego mój powrót do dotychczasowych opiekunów został wstrzymany. Najsmutniejsze jest jednak to, że nikt nawet o mnie nie pyta…A przecież ja nadal czekam. Czekam na człowieka, który spojrzy na mnie z czułością i da mi szansę zacząć od nowa. Jestem dużym, puchatym misiem o łagodnym sercu. Mimo tego, co przeszedłem, wciąż ufam ludziom i bardzo potrzebuję bliskości, spokojnych spacerów i ciepłego domu.Marzę, żeby w końcu poczuć, że jestem dla kogoś ważny. Może właśnie Ty podarujesz mi miejsce, którego już nigdy nie będę musiał opuszczać?

About Puszek

What life with Puszek looks like

Puszek is a large 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. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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.
