Rudzik

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

Rudzik is a very young puppy, about 1.5 to 2 years old. He is small, about 35 cm tall, weighs around 6 kg. Good people took him on a trip to us, thereby saving his life. Rudzik was abandoned somewhere in southeastern Poland. He was hit by a car, the dog was seriously injured and could not move, and spent three days in bushes waiting for help. Unfortunately, in the local municipal office they decided on euthanasia - probably diagnosing a spinal injury. Rudzik had broken pelvis. He is already healed, walks well. He is a cute, very gentle and quiet dog, who starts wagging his tail as soon as we address him. He is friendly towards dogs, but rather does not like cats.

Rudzik to młodziutki piesek, ma ok półtora roku-2 lata.Jest niewielki,ma ok 35 cm wzrostu,waży ok 6 kg.Wyprawili go w podróż do nas dobrzy ludzie, którzy uratowali mu w ten sposob życie. Rudzik był porzucony gdzieś na południowym wschodzie Polski. Potrącił go samochód, psiak poturbowany nie mógł się ruszyć i 3 dni spędził w krzakach czekając na pomoc.Niestety w miejscowym urzędzie gminy podjęto decyzję o eutanazji-zaocznie chyba diagnozując uraz kręgosłupa. Rudzik tymczasem miał złamania miednicy.Jest już wyleczony, sprawnie chodzi. Jest to uroczy, bardzo łagodny i cichutki psiak, który zaczyna machać ogonkiem jak tylko się do niego odezwiemy. Wobec psów przyjazny, kotów raczej nie lubi.

About Rudzik

What life with Rudzik looks like

Rudzik is a small young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Fundacja Wzajemnie Pomocni in Poland.

An young 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 Rudzik, answered.

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