Sprite

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 2 years

We won't go into Sprite's story. Thrown out of a car like garbage, emaciated, obviously abused. Nothing special, just another sad story. We already wrote about Sprite being an amazing dog. However, for 2 years now, some kind of curse has been hanging over him and he hasn't been able to find his place :( He spends his time at Psia Cebulka - Hotel for Animals and Animal Behaviorist for Dogs and Cats, where he has made huge progress! He walks nicely, touch is no longer a problem for him, he doesn't eat trash outside, and he isn't afraid of passing vehicles. Great progress! Still, he's without a home... We keep reading that "black dogs are also beautiful," "you're writing nonsense," "I adopted a black one and it's loved," but let's not fool ourselves - light-colored dogs have it much easier. If you live on the other end of Poland, don't worry! Sprite handles the car perfectly and knows the kennel. Everything is safe and pleasant!

Nie będziemy rozwodzić się nad historią Sprita. Wywalony z auta jak śmieć, wychudzony, na 100% bity.. nic szczególnego, historia jakich wiele. O tym już pisaliśmy Sprite to wspaniały pies. Jednak od 2 lat ciąży nad nim jakąś klątwa i nie może znaleźć swojego miejsca :( Czas spędza w hoteliku u Psia Cebulka - Hotel dla zwierząt i Behawiorysta psów i kotów , w którym zrobił ogromny progres!Bardzo ładnie spaceruje, dotyk nie stanowi dla niego problemu, nie zjada śmieci na zewnątrz, nie boi się przejeżdżających pojazdów. Wielkie postępy! Mimo to.. ciągle bez domu...Czytamy w kółko, że "czarne psy też są piękne!", "piszecie głupoty", "ja wzięłam/wziąłem czarnego i jest kochany" ale nie oszukujemy się - jasne psy mają o wiele łatwiej Jeśli mieszkasz na drugim końcu Polski, nie przejmuj się! Spritek idealnie radzi sobie w samochodzie oraz zna kennel Wszystko bezpiecznie i przyjemnie!

About Sprite

What life with Sprite looks like

Sprite is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Fundacja Sterczące Uszy in Poland.

An young 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 Sprite, answered.

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