How do I contact the shelter about Tuptuś?

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

Can I adopt Tuptuś 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 Tuptuś 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 Tuptuś 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 Tuptuś 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.

Tuptuś

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 2 months

Tuptuś is our shy one, who is making great progress every day. Before him there is a long and difficult path to be fully ready for adoption, and even more so for life in a family, in a home. However, we believe that with daily work and proper care, Tuptuś is able to overcome his fears and learn to love his human. 🥰 This is a dog that requires a lot of patience from the owner, and as everyone knows, in a home, whether permanent or temporary, he will quickly learn what love is. He is a medium-sized dog and weighs about 16 kg. He is a dachshund with short legs, but a heavier build. Unfortunately, something bad must have happened in Tuptusia's life, he ended up in the animal shelter very withdrawn. Overwhelmed by the sight of a human, he lived in a state of total freezing. Fortunately, his nightmare is over, and thanks to the wonderful volunteers and the shelter owners, care and patience, Tuptuś is slowly coming out of the darkness. 🥰 Today our magnificent Tuptuś is overcoming himself and beginning to trust the volunteers. He has already gone through systematic socialization with other dachshunds and people, and even taken several walks outside the animal shelter. This is a wonderful, but very hurt dog, who needs a safe, patient and warm home that will support him and give him time to come out of his shell. 🏡 Tuptuś like any dog with anxiety issues needs proper care and a responsible home. If you are able to provide all of this and add a lot of love, please call and adopt Tuptusia. 🤳🏼 📍 Tuptuś is currently at the animal shelter for homeless animals Canis in Kruszewo – about 100 km from Warsaw and Białystok. 🦴 You can visit him every weekend during hours!

Tuptuś to nasz lękusek, który z każdym dniem robi coraz większe postępy. Przed nim jeszcze długa i nie łatwa droga, by być w pełni gotowy do adopcji, a tym bardziej do życia w rodzinie, w domu. Jednak wierzymy, że przy codziennej pracy oraz odpowiedniej opiece Tuptuś jest w stanie przełamać swoje lęki i pokochać swojego człowieka. 🥰 To psiak, który wymaga dużej cierpliwości ze strony właściciela, a jak wiadomo w domu tym stałym czy tymczasowym dużo szybciej nauczy się czym jest miłość. Jest średnim pieskiem i waży ok. 16 kg. Jest psiakiem o krótkich łapkach, ale cięższej postury. W życiu Tuptusia musiało wydarzyć się niestety dużo złego, trafił do schroniska bardzo wycofany. Ogromnie przerażony widokiem człowieka, żył w trybie całkowitego zamrożenia. Na szczęście jego koszmar już się skończył, a dzięki wspaniałym wolontariuszom i właścicielom schorniska, trosce i cierpliwości Tuptuś powoli wychodzi z mroku. 🥰 Dziś nasz wspaniały Tuptuś, przełamuje się i zaczyna ufać wolontariuszom. Ma za sobą już systematyczną socjalizację z innymi psiakami i ludźmi, a nawet kilka spacerków poza teren schroniska. To wspaniały, ale bardzo skrzywdzony psiak, potrzebuje bezpiecznego, cierpliwego i ciepłego domu, który będzie go wspierał i da mu czas na wyjście ze skorupki. 🏡 Tuptuś jak każdy psiak z problemem lękowym potrzebuje odpowiedniej opieki i odpowiedzialnego domu. Jeśli jesteś w stanie zapewnić mu to wszystko i dodać do tego ogrom miłości to koniecznie zadzwoń i adoptuj Tuptusia. 🤳🏼 📍 Tuptuś przebywa w Schronisku dla Bezdomnych Zwierząt Canis w Kruszewie – ok. 100 km od Warszawy i Białegostoku. 🦴 Można go odwiedzić w każdy weekend w godzinach ! 📞 Kontakt w sprawie adopcji lub więcej informacji: 502 750 530 Nie możesz adoptować? Pomóż w inny sposób – dorzuć się do karmy! 🐾 💚 Przelew tradycyjny: PKO BP S.A. O/Ostrołęka 80 1020 3802 5419 SWIFT: BPKOPLPW

About Tuptuś

What life with Tuptuś looks like

Tuptuś 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.
