Tofik

Mixed Breed · Male

Temperament: Tofik is a young dog full of energy and joy, as befits a terrier. He needs some time to approach and dare to touch a new person, but he is curious. He has a huge motivation to eat, so much that sometimes it's hard for him to focus on the person, but the animal shelter is difficult conditions to control emotions. Walks with him are very pleasant, on a loose lead. Tofik loves to sniff bushes, but at the same time makes sure that the person is following him. He can avoid dogs only at a large distance, at too small a distance he gets excited - barks and pulls towards the dog. This is certainly a demanding dog, above all it requires a lot of patience and calmness. He has a terrier's spirit, so he can quickly get into high emotions, which also quickly subside. He shakes them off and goes on. We are currently working on passing other dogs.

Usposobienie: Tofik to młody pies pełen energii i radości jak to na teriera przystało. Potrzebuje on trochę czasu, żeby pierwszy podejść i odważyć się na dotyk nowo poznanego człowieka, ale jest z niego ciekawski psiak. Ma ogromną motywacje na jedzenie, aż tak ogromną, że czasami trudno mu się skupić na człowieku, ale schronisko to trudne warunki do panowania nad emocjami. Spacery z nim są bardzo przyjemne, na luźnej lince. Tofik uwielbia węszyć krzaczki, ale zarazem upewnia się czy na pewno człowiek podąża za nim. Potrafi omijać psy tylko przy dużym dystansie, przy zbyt małej odległości pobudza się – szczeka i ciągnie w kierunku psa. Jest to z pewnością pies wymagający, przede wszystkim wymaga on dużo cierpliwości i spokoju. Ma on bowiem duszę teriera, więc bywa, że szybko wchodzi na wysokie emocje, które równie szybko opadają. Otrzepie się z nich i idzie dalej. Obecnie pracujemy nad mijaniem się z innymi psami.

About Tofik

What life with Tofik looks like

Tofik is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Poznaniu in Poznan.

An 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 Tofik, answered.

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