Adopt Shrek

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 5 months

🐾 Shrek – a calm observer with a proud look 🐾 Shrek is a somewhat larger dog with a careful, proud look. He is an observer type - first he watches, analyzes the situation and surroundings, and then makes a decision. In the animal shelter, he may seem a bit withdrawn, but that's his natural caution and need to learn the world on his own terms. In relation to humans, Shrek is balanced and calm. He is happy to see the caregiver, but shows it in a subtle way - without excessive excitement and jumping. The human is his companion, someone important, with whom one can simply be. He likes petting and closeness, although he is not always the first to seek attention. On walks, he nicely walks on a leash, is composed and attentive. He is an emotionally stable dog who will best find himself with a calm, patient caretaker. Shrek should go to a home without other dogs and cats, where he can be the only pup and build a relationship at his own pace. We are looking for a quiet and predictable home for him - one where his character will be understood and appreciated. In return, Shrek will give loyalty, stability, and faithful companionship.

🐾 Shrek – spokojny obserwator z dumnym spojrzeniem 🐾 Shrek to nieco większy pies o uważnym, dumnym spojrzeniu. To typ obserwatora – najpierw patrzy, analizuje sytuację i otoczenie, a dopiero potem podejmuje decyzję. W schronisku może wydawać się nieco wycofany, ale to jego naturalna ostrożność i potrzeba poznania świata na własnych zasadach. W relacji z człowiekiem Shrek jest zrównoważony i spokojny. Cieszy się na widok opiekuna, lecz okazuje to w subtelny sposób – bez nadmiernej ekscytacji i skakania. Człowiek jest dla niego towarzyszem, kimś ważnym, przy kim można po prostu być. Lubi głaskanie i bliskość, choć nie zawsze będzie pierwszy do zabiegania o uwagę. Na spacerach ładnie chodzi na smyczy, jest opanowany i uważny. To pies stabilny emocjonalnie, który najlepiej odnajdzie się przy spokojnym, cierpliwym opiekunie. Shrek powinien trafić do domu bez innych psów i kotów, gdzie będzie mógł być jedynym pupilem i budować relację w swoim tempie. Szukamy dla niego domu spokojnego i przewidywalnego – takiego, w którym jego charakter zostanie zrozumiany i doceniony. W zamian Shrek da lojalność, stabilność i wierne towarzystwo. 📩 Jeśli czujesz, że to pies dla Ciebie – skontaktuj się z nami i poznaj Shreka bliżej. 📞Biuro adopcyjne: 781 555 441

About Shrek

What life with Shrek looks like

Shrek is a large puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Fundacja Puszatek in Warszawa.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇵🇱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 Shrek, answered.

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