Roki

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 12 years

ROKI, HALF HIS LIFE BEHIND BARS – WILL HE FIND A HOME IN TIME? Roki is a shelter veteran – he has been waiting for a home since June 2018. He has spent half his life behind bars because no one gave him a chance. Now he is 12 years old – he has grown old and lost hope that he will ever leave the Shelter. He has stopped believing that he will still have his own people to love. He has only a few years left, and it depends on us whether he will spend them behind bars‼ Will someone adopt a senior of the shepherd type? And what is Roki like: shy with strangers will let you do a lot for treats loves calm little walks What kind of home is he looking for: a calm one, without small children without other animals – he must be an only pet he won't fit into a big family preferably a home with a garden, where he can spend his time WILL SOMEONE GIVE ROKI A CHANCE AT A DIGNIFIED OLD AGE BY A HUMAN'S SIDE? Roki is: vaccinated, microchipped, neutered. Will someone love this shelter veteran and hold his paw as he goes over the Rainbow Bridge? He is waiting at the Shelter in Zawiercie.

About Roki

What life with Roki looks like

Roki is a large senior mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Zawierciu 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. Adopters usually cover transport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Roki, answered.

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