Adopt Sordo

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 13 years

Born in 2013, Sordo is a medium-sized dog. Sordo really wants to have a home! Life as a blind puppy in the shelter is not easy. Sordo has not seen for a long time, but recently new problems have appeared with one eye, which became swollen and inflamed. The treatment applied did not bring results, so after a specialist consultation, a decision was made to amputate the eye, which could no longer be saved and was causing the puppy suffering. The operation took place in December 2025. The most important thing is that he no longer hurts, but... he still needs a loving caregiver. Sordo very willingly spends time with volunteers on walks, but he needs careful care and guidance, because he is not able to see obstacles or uneven terrain by himself. He is a charming, good-natured old man who needs a loving home and warmth, like any other puppy.

Urodzony w 2013 roku Sordo to średniej wielkości psiak. Sordo bardzo chce mieć dom! Życie niewidomego psiska w schronisku nie jest łatwe. Sordo nie widzi już dłuższy czas, ale ostatnio pojawiły się nowe problemy z jednym oczkiem, które puchło i było nabrzmiałe. Wdrożone leczenie nie przyniosło skutku, więc po specjalistycznej konsultacji zapadła decyzja o amputacji oczka, które nie dało się już uratować, a w dodatku przysparzało psiakowi cierpienia. Operacja odbyła się w grudniu 2025. Najważniejsze że już nie boli, ale… wciąż brakuje kochającego opiekuna przy boku Sordo bardzo chętnie spędza czas z wolontariuszami na spacerach, potrzebuje jednak troskliwej opieki i nakierowania, bo sam nie jest w stanie dostrzec przeszkód czy nierówności terenu. Jest on uroczym dobrodusznym staruszkiem, który potrzebuje kochającego domu i ciepła, jak każdy inny piesek.

About Sordo

What life with Sordo looks like

Sordo is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Słupsku in Poland.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Sordo, answered.

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