SONIA

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 6 months

Sonia is a 6-year-old, 7 kg small dog with a big need for closeness. She used to have a home, her beloved owner, and a life with a human presence. Unfortunately, her owner's illness ended their life together. This is a huge change and a very difficult experience for Sonia. She is a dog that really needs a human. She is not happy being locked in a kennel. She suffers from loneliness, withdraws, loses joy, and even refuses to eat. It's clear that her heart is still waiting for someone with whom she can feel safe again. Sonia is calm, well-behaved, and extremely gentle. She is the type of dog that would rather lie down next to her human and just be with them. She doesn't need constant play or big adventures. Her happiness is a quiet walk, returning home, a soft couch, and a human she can keep an eye on. On walks, she is very nice - she walks nicely on a leash, doesn't pull, and can walk calmly. Besides, Sonia has a lot of charm. She is a little shy, a little endearing, and very "her own". When she looks at a person with those big, brown eyes, it's hard not to think that she's trying to ask: "Can I go home now?" At home, she behaves very well. She knows the house rules and keeps it clean. She doesn't need luxuries. Sonia just needs a place where she can sleep peacefully with the conviction that tomorrow she will still have her human. Her appearance fits her character perfectly - a small, delicate, white-and-black dog with a charming, slightly disheveled face and a gaze that says more than a thousand words. Sonia is already 6 years old, but that doesn't mean she's had the best of it. On the contrary. Maybe now she deserves someone to tell her: "Come on, Sonia. From today, you're home." We are looking for a quiet, loving home where she can be close to a human and enjoy her dream life as a lap dog. Sonia doesn't need much. She just needs someone who will love her for good and forever.

PL·Show original

Ma 6 lat, waży tylko 7 kg i jest naprawdę malutką sunią, ale w jej niewielkim ciałku mieści się ogromna potrzeba bliskości. Sonia miała kiedyś swoje miejsce, swój dom i przede wszystkim swoją ukochaną panią. Zna życie domowe, zna ciepło kanapy, codzienną obecność człowieka i poczucie bezpieczeństwa. Niestety choroba opiekunki sprawiła, że ich wspólne życie musiało się skończyć. Dla Soni to ogromna zmiana i bardzo trudne doświadczenie. To sunia, która naprawdę potrzebuje człowieka. Nie jest szczęśliwa zamknięta w kojcu. Bardzo przeżywa samotność, wycofuje się, traci radość, a nawet odmawia jedzenia. Widać, że jej serce nadal czeka na kogoś, przy kim znowu będzie mogła poczuć się bezpieczna. Sonia jest spokojna, grzeczna i niezwykle łagodna. To typ psa, który najchętniej położy się obok swojego człowieka i będzie po prostu z nim. Nie potrzebuje ciągłej zabawy ani wielkich przygód. Jej szczęście to spokojny spacer, powrót do domu, miękka kanapa i człowiek, którego może mieć na oku. Na spacerach jest bardzo fajna – ładnie chodzi na smyczy, nie ciągnie i potrafi spokojnie spacerować. Poza tym Sonia ma w sobie dużo uroku. Jest trochę nieśmiała, trochę rozczulająca i bardzo „swoja”. Kiedy patrzy na człowieka tymi wielkimi, brązowymi oczami, trudno nie pomyśleć, że właśnie próbuje zapytać: „Czy mogę już wrócić do domu?” W domu zachowuje się bardzo dobrze. Zna domowe zasady i ładnie utrzymuje czystość. Nie potrzebuje luksusów. Sonia potrzebuje po prostu miejsca, w którym będzie mogła spokojnie zasnąć z przekonaniem, że jutro nadal będzie miała swojego człowieka. Jej wygląd idealnie pasuje do charakteru – niewielka, delikatna, biało-czarna sunia z uroczym, lekko potarganym pyszczkiem i spojrzeniem, które mówi więcej niż tysiąc słów. Sonia ma już 6 lat, ale to wcale nie oznacza, że najlepsze ma za sobą. Wręcz przeciwnie. Być może właśnie teraz najbardziej zasługuje na to, żeby ktoś powiedział jej: „Chodź, Soniu. Od dzisiaj jesteś u siebie.” Szukamy dla niej spokojnego, kochającego domu, w którym będzie mogła być blisko człowieka i cieszyć się swoim wymarzonym życiem kanapowca. Sonia nie potrzebuje wiele. Potrzebuje tylko kogoś, kto pokocha ją na dobre i na zawsze.

About SONIA

What life with SONIA looks like

SONIA is a small 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 SONIA, answered.

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