How do I contact the shelter about STICZ?

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 STICZ on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt STICZ 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 STICZ 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 STICZ 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 STICZ 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.

STICZ

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 14 months

Stitch is a senior dog whose gaze captures the heart more than anything else. This dog is Stitch - an absolutely unique senior born around 2014, which means he is now about 12 years old. Stitch's appearance, posture and incredible warmth resemble a beloved Labrador. In his eyes, there is an extraordinary life wisdom, composure and boundless faith that he will spend his autumn in warmth, not on cold concrete behind bars. He weighs about 21 kg, proudly representing the ideal, medium-sized format - steady, mature and created for a quiet home hearth. Stitch is walking gentleness, kindness and calmness. He is an extremely sociable, friendly and balanced dog - he loves human presence, values every gentle gesture and receives every moment of attention with great gratitude. Age is his great asset: Stitch knows the rules of the house perfectly, there is no trace of youthful pranks, and he treats every day by the side of the caregiver as the greatest gift. The shelter box is an extremely unfair place for a 12-year-old, graying senior - Stitch urgently needs a warm corner, a soft bed and a heart that will surround him with the care he deserves for his whole life! Why is the unique and dignified Stitch a perfect friend for you? Brilliant attitude towards other dogs: Stitch accepts other dogs wonderfully! His gentle, harmonious and conflict-free nature makes him fit in easily in a house where a four-legged resident already lives. Labrador wisdom and composure: Quiet, balanced, gazing at a person - the ideal companion for peaceful, leisurely walks and lazy afternoons on the couch. The senior's ocean of gratitude: The love of a mature dog is the most beautiful feeling in the world - Stitch will repay you for a warm corner with boundless, silent devotion. We are looking for a peaceful, safe and loving home for Stitch - people with big hearts who will appreciate the charm of the dog senior and give him a dignified, affectionate retirement. Give him a safe haven, and this wonderful old man will fill your home with the most beautiful, lifelong love!

Są w schronisku psy, których spojrzenie chwyta za serce mocniej niż cokolwiek innego. Takim psem jest Sticz – absolutnie wyjątkowy senior urodzony około 2014 roku, co oznacza, że ma obecnie około 12 lat. Sticz swoim wyglądem, posturą i niesamowitym ciepłem przypomina kochanego labradora. W jego oczach maluje się niezwykła życiowa mądrość, opanowanie oraz bezgraniczna wiara w to, że jesień życia spędzi w cieple, a nie na zimnym betonie za kratami. Waży około 21 kg, dumnie reprezentując idealny, średniej wielkości format – stateczny, dojrzały i stworzony do spokojnego domowego ogniska. Sticz to chodząca łagodność, serdeczność i spokój. Jest psem niezwykle towarzyskim, przyjaznym i zrównoważonym – kocha obecność człowieka, ceni sobie każdy czuły gest i z ogromną wdzięcznością przyjmuje każdą chwilę uwagi. Wiek jest jego wielkim atutem: Sticz doskonale zna zasady panujące w domu, nie ma w nim cienia młodzieńczych psot, a każdy dzień u boku opiekuna traktuje jak największy dar. Schroniskowy boks to dla 12-letniego, siwiejącego seniora miejsce skrajnie niesprawiedliwe – Sticz pilnie potrzebuje ciepłego kąta, miękkiego legowiska i serca, które otoczy go troską, na jaką zasłużył przez całe swoje życie! Dlaczego wyjątkowy i dostojny Sticz to przyjaciel doskonały dla Ciebie? Genialny stosunek do innych psów: Sticz wspaniale akceptuje inne czworonogi! Jego łagodna, zgodna i bezkonfliktowa natura sprawia, że bez problemu odnajdzie się w domu, w którym mieszka już czworonożny rezydent. Mądrość i opanowanie labradora: Cichy, zrównoważony, wpatrzony w człowieka – idealny towarzysz spokojnych, niespiesznych spacerów i leniwych popołudni na kanapie. Ocean wdzięczności seniora: Miłość dojrzałego psa to najpiękniejsze uczucie na świecie – Sticz odwdzięczy się za ciepły kąt bezgranicznym, cichym oddaniem. Szukamy dla Sticza domu spokojnego, bezpiecznego i pełnego miłości – ludzi o wielkich sercach, którzy docenią urok psiego seniora i podarują mu godną, otuloną czułością emeryturę. Podaruj mu bezpieczną przystań, a ten wspaniały staruszek wypełni Twój dom najpiękniejszą, dozgonną miłością!

About STICZ

What life with STICZ looks like

STICZ 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.
