Roksana

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

Meet Roksana. This is an older female dog who is initially distrustful of new people. Her story has taught her caution, but with a little patience and warmth, Roksana opens her heart. Once she trusts, she shows what she really is - gentle, calm and longing for human contact. She just needs someone who will give her time and a chance to feel safe. Maybe it's you who will give Roksana a home full of love?

Poznajcie Roksanę To starsza sunia, która na początku jest nieufna wobec nowych osób. Jej historia nauczyła ją ostrożności, ale wystarczy odrobina cierpliwości i ciepła, a Roksana otwiera swoje serce. Kiedy już zaufa, pokazuje, jaka naprawdę jest – delikatna, spokojna i spragniona bliskości człowieka. Potrzebuje tylko kogoś, kto da jej czas i szansę, aby mogła poczuć się bezpieczna. Może to właśnie Ty podarujesz Roksanie dom pełen miłości?

About Roksana

What life with Roksana looks like

Roksana is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at OTOZ Animals — Schronisko w Starogardzie Gdańskim in Poland.

An 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Roksana, answered.

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