How do I contact the shelter about Tolek?

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

Can I adopt Tolek 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 Tolek 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 Tolek 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 Tolek 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.

Tolek

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 6 months

Tolek is about 6 years old and is a small dog who is still learning the world and relationships with people. He's like a "little wild one," but with great potential - you can see that he wants to, he just needs peace and time to fully open up. He approaches people, is interested in them and takes small steps forward. With the right approach, his social predispositions, which are definitely present in him, can be beautifully used. He loves treats - that's the best way to his heart and a great tool for further work. He gets along well with other animals, so the presence of a calm dog companion can be a big support for him. We are looking for a home with a garden, without children, that will approach him consciously and patiently. One that will show him that the world and people are not scary. This is a dog who needs time - but in the right hands, he has a chance to spread his wings and trust truly.

PL·Show original

Tolek ma około 6 lat i jest niewielkim psiakiem, który wciąż uczy się świata i relacji z człowiekiem. To taki „mały dzikusek”, ale z ogromnym potencjałem – widać, że chce, tylko potrzebuje spokoju i czasu, żeby się w pełni otworzyć. Podchodzi do człowieka, interesuje się nim i robi małe kroki do przodu. Przy odpowiednim podejściu można pięknie wykorzystać jego predyspozycje do socjalności, które zdecydowanie w nim są. Uwielbia smaczki – to najlepsza droga do jego serca i świetne narzędzie do dalszej pracy. Dobrze dogaduje się z innymi zwierzętami, dlatego obecność spokojnego psiego towarzysza może być dla niego dużym wsparciem. Szukamy dla Tolka domu z ogrodem, bez dzieci, który podejdzie do niego świadomie i cierpliwie. Takiego, który pokaże mu, że świat i ludzie nie są straszni. To pies, który potrzebuje czasu – ale w odpowiednich rękach ma szansę rozwinąć skrzydła i zaufać naprawdę.

About Tolek

What life with Tolek looks like

Tolek 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.
