Roy

Mixed Breed · Male

A large dog - a big cuddle! In short, that's how Roy can be described. This incredibly open and friendly boy, of Belgian shepherd type, ended up at the animal shelter at the end of July after his owner's death. Roy undoubtedly misses a person, attention, and caresses very much. He wants to be as close as possible, drawing his strength from human presence. He leans into people, snuggling and rubbing against them, and even rests his head on their legs. Though we're just getting to know Roy, we can already say that his list of positive traits is long. The boy walks nicely on a leash, calmly passes by other dogs, showing interest in them, and politely greets them. He loves to play - chasing a toy, pulling on a tug rope, picking up and tossing a bottle found on a walk, Roy is creative, and everything can be a game. We dream of this joyful spark leaving the animal shelter as soon as possible, so it doesn't fade here. We very much hope for a forever good home for Roy.

Duży pies - wielki przytulak! Tak w skrócie można opisać Roya. Ten niezwykle otwarty i przyjazny chłopak w typie owczarka belgijskiego trafił do schroniska pod koniec lipca po śmierci właściciela. Roy bez wątpienia bardzo tęskni za człowiekiem, uwagą, pieszczotami. Chce być jak najbliżej, chce czerpać z ludzkiej obecności jak najwięcej. Opiera się całym ciałem o człowieka, wtula się i ociera, kładzie na nogach. Choć dopiero się z Royem poznajemy, już możemy powiedzieć, że lista jego zalet jest długa. Chłopak pięknie spaceruje na smyczy, spokojnie mija inne psy - jest nimi zainteresowany, kulturalnie się wita. Uwielbia się bawić - bieganie za patyczkiem, przeciąganie szarpakiem, podrzucanie i memłanie znalezionej na spacerze butelki, Roy jest kreatywny, wszystko może być zabawką Marzy nam się, aby ta radosna iskierka jak najszybciej opuściła schronisko, aby jej entuzjazm tu nie zgasł. Bardzo prosimy o dobry dom na zawsze dla Roya.

About Roy

What life with Roy looks like

Roy is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko dla Bezdomnych Zwierząt w Milanówku in Poland.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Roy, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Roy?
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 Roy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Roy 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 Roy 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 Roy 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 Roy 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.
