How do I contact the shelter about Runa?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Fundacja Puszatek handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Runa on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Runa if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Fundacja Puszatek 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 Runa 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 Runa 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 Puszatek early rather than rehoming privately; they know Runa 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.

Runa

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 9 years

RUNKA 👑 Do we have any fans of energetic dog volcanoes with terrier genes here? 💥 If so, welcome to get to know this 9-month-old girl! You could say that there are actually two personalities in this dog: the well-exercised and the not well-exercised. The one that has been on several kilometers of running can be really cute, walk elegantly on a leash, respond to her name, ride a car beautifully, and even not bother other dogs! 🤭 However, if this companion hasn't been on a proper adventure in the forest or on a meadow that day, she can pull on the leash like a little tank and other dogs are an object of obsession for her 🙃 Runka is still very young and has an inner stubbornness that makes her misbehave. She has destroyed slippers, shoes, and carpets. She is untamable when it comes to coming up with stupid ideas! She will need a smart, very patient caregiver who will focus on setting her boundaries🧐 That's why she is not suitable for a home with children and other animals (cats, rodents, birds, etc. she has strong hunting instincts) except for strong-minded, adult dogs. A older, calm dog will definitely annoy her 🙅🏼‍♀️ her future companion must simply be more stubborn than her 😂 Runa would also be perfect as an only child who just goes on group walks with other dogs that she has mastered perfectly 💖 Great qualities of Runka are her hellish (literally!) intelligence and independence 🧠 She is a brave and curious dog who must look into every hole and check the area. As a terrier, she is moderately barky, not excessively. She can be left alone in her room or with another dog 🥰 With people Runa is indifferent, unless she sets her sights on someone and likes them. Then she comes for pats and affection, of course, on her own terms! Runa is a crazy lover, a one-in-a-million specimen 💝 Such dogs are loved or completely ignored. We are looking for a family that appreciates her temperament and shows her the way. Currently weighs 12.5kg but will gain a little more. She is before her first heat, not spayed. Has vaccinations and deworming. Lives in a dog hotel in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship where she is learning to live again under the supervision of a behaviorist. Adoption procedure applies along with a meet and greet walk!🌳🌲 ✅ Please read the entire announcement carefully, read to the end☝️‼️ ✅ Link to the questionnaire ⬇️ (👉‼️ if you have trouble editing/downloading the questionnaire, write the answers in the email body‼️ 👈) ✅ We consider only detailed questionnaires ☝️ ✅ We contact only selected people ☝️ ✅ Want to learn more about the adoption process?

RUNKA 👑 Czy mamy tu jakichś fanów psich wulkanów energii z genami teriera? 💥 Jeśli tak, to zapraszamy do zapoznania się z ogłoszeniem tej 9 miesięcznej dziewczyny! Można powiedzieć, że w tym psie siedzą tak naprawdę dwie osobowości: wylatana i niewylatana. Ta, która ma za sobą kilka kilometrów przebieżki potrafi być przeurocza, chodzić elegancko na smyczy, reagować na swoje imię, pięknie jeździć autem a nawet nie dokuczać innym psom! 🤭 Jeśli jednak ta koleżanka nie była danego dnia na porządnej eskapadzie w lesie czy na łące, potrafi ciągnąć na smyczy jak mały czołg a inne pieski są dla niej obiektem zaczepek 🙃 Runka jest jeszcze bardzo młoda i ma w sobie wewnętrznego uparciucha, który każe jej rozrabiać. Ma za sobą wymiętolone kapcie, buty czy dywany. We wpadaniu na głupie pomysły jest nieposkromiona! Będzie potrzebować mądrego, bardzo cierpliwego opiekuna który skupi się na stawianiu jej granic🧐 Dlatego nie nadaje się do domu z dziećmi oraz innymi zwierzętami (kotami, gryzoniami, ptakami etc. ma silne popędy łowieckie) z wyjątkiem silnych psychicznie, dorosłych psów. Starszego, spokojnego psa na pewno zamęczy 🙅🏼‍♀️ jej przyszły towarzysz musi być po prostu bardziej uparty od niej 😂Runa nada się też idealnie na jedynaczkę, która po prostu chodzi na spacery grupowe z innymi psami, które doskonale opanowała💖 Ogromne zalety Runy, to jej piekielna (dosłownie!) inteligencja oraz samodzielność 🧠 Jest psem odważnym i ciekawskim, który musi zajrzeć do każdej dziury i skontrolować okolicę. Jak na teriera jest umiarkowanie szczekliwa, nie robi tego nadmiernie. Umie już zostawać sama w swoim pokoju lub z innym psem 🥰 Do ludzi Runa jest obojętna, chyba że kogoś sobie upatrzy i polubi. Wtedy przychodzi na głaski i czułość, oczywiście na jej zasadach! Runa to jest przekochana wariatka, taki egzemplarz jeden na milion 💝Takie psy się kocha albo się ich zupełnie nie czuje. Szukamy dla niej rodziny, która doceni jej temperament i wskaże jej drogę. Obecnie waży 12,5kg ale jeszcze troszeczkę przytyje. Jest przed pierwszą cieczką, niewykastrowana. Posiada szczepienia i odrobaczenie. Przebywa w hoteliku dla psów w województwie zachodniopomorskim gdzie uczy się życia na nowo pod okiem behawiorystki. Obowiązuje procedura adopcyjna wraz ze spacerem zapoznawczym!🌳🌲 ✅Prosimy o DOKŁADNE zapoznanie się z CAŁYM ogłoszeniem czyli doczytaj do końca☝️‼️ ✅Link do ankiety ⬇️ (👉‼️ jeśli masz problem z edytowaniem/pobraniem ankiety wpisz odpowiedzi w treść maila‼️ 👈) ✅Pod uwagę bierzemy tylko ankiety wypełnione szczegółowo ☝️ ✅Kontaktujemy się TYLKO z wybranymi osobami ☝️ ✅Chcesz dowiedzieć się więcej o procesie adopcyjnym?

About Runa

What life with Runa looks like

Runa is a small senior mixed breed dog waiting at Fundacja Puszatek in Warszawa.

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. Adoption fees are typically lower than in Western Europe (often €50–€150) but adopters cover transport.
