Savina

Mixed Breed · Male

Savina arrived at our shelter in the middle of January 2024. So far, she has been recognized as a subtle and gentle female dog. Before fate threw her into our care, it was said that she had wandered for a long time. But her past will likely never be known to us. What we can do together is take care of the future of this lovely canine girl, finding her a responsible and loving home. What do we know about her so far? That she has never really walked on a leash, so a typical walk by a human's side and on a leash was a challenge for her. However, the presence of another dog significantly encouraged her and she finally bravely completed her first, rather long walk with the volunteers and shelter companion Czesia. The second walk in the company of the same companion was already much braver. Therefore, for the next walks, we will be picking her up in the company of another dog who will help her understand how fun it is to walk. Overall, it is clear that Savina needs the support of another, balanced dog, because then she mimics and learns to behave like a dog. Other dogs definitely arouse her curiosity. She is a bit confused in her reactions, but when she watches what and how another dog does, she willingly follows in their footsteps. Cars still scare Savina - on her first walk, she fell to the ground at the sight of them. But thanks to appropriate, balanced support and encouragement from a human, Savina herself decided that they could continue walking. We are at the beginning of getting to know this cool sun, and we hope that as she gets more accustomed to us, she will allow us to get to know her better, and then we will be able to write more about her.

Savina trafiła do schroniska w połowie stycznia 2024 roku. Na razie dała się poznać jako subtelna i łagodna sunia. Zanim los rzucił ją do nas, podobno długo się błąkała. Ale jej przeszłości zapewne nigdy nie poznamy. Za to możemy wspólnie zadbać o przyszłość tej uroczej psiej dziewczynki, znajdując jej odpowiedzialny i kochający dom. Co o niej wiemy na ten moment? Że raczej nigdy nie chodziła na smyczy, więc typowy spacer u boku człowieka i na smyczy był dla niej wyzwaniem. Jednakże obecność drugiego psa znacznie ją ośmieliła i ostatecznie dzielnie zaliczyła swój pierwszy, całkiem długi spacer z wolontariuszami oraz schroniskową koleżanką Czesią. Drugi spacer w obecności tej samej koleżanki przebiegł już zdecydowanie śmielej. Zatem na kolejne spacerki póki co będziemy ją zbierać w towarzystwie drugiego psiaka właśnie, który pomoże jej zrozumieć, jaka to fajna aktywność. Ogólnie widać, że Savina potrzebuje wsparcia drugiego, zrównoważonego psa, bo wtedy naśladuje i uczy się postępować po psiemu. Inne psy zdecydowanie wzbudzają jej ciekawość. Sama jest w reakcjach trochę zagubiona., ale gdy podpatrzy, co i jak robi inny pies, z chęcią idzie w jego ślady. Samochody na razie napawają Savinkę lękiem - na ich widok na pierwszym, spacerze przypadła do ziemi. Ale dzięki odpowiedniemu, wyważonemu wsparciu i zachęcie od człowieka, Savina sama postanowiła, że można iść dalej. Jesteśmy na początku znajomości z tą fajną sunią, liczymy, że gdy bardziej się z nami oswoi, pozwoli nam się lepiej poznać, a wtedy będziemy mogli napisać o niej więcej.

About Savina

What life with Savina looks like

Savina is a 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. 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 Savina, answered.

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