Turbo

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 4 years

Name: Turbo Date of birth: 01.05.2022 Size: large Turbo is a young, strong, and highly energetic dog with enormous potential. He’s intelligent, knows basic commands, and eagerly cooperates with humans. He’s aware of his own strength, so he needs a responsible, experienced guardian who understands the needs of large, powerful dogs. On walks, he’s usually well-behaved and doesn’t cause any trouble. When he spots a strange dog, he focuses intensely on it and may pull strongly toward it—such situations call for calm, confident handling. In general, he gets along well with other dogs, but in a new home, he’d thrive best as an only pet. Turbo absolutely loves people and happily seeks affection. He hasn’t yet been taught how to play appropriately with humans—when he gets overly excited, he might jump up and leap onto the person next to him. This isn’t out of malice; rather, it’s a sign that he still needs to learn how to properly release his energy. Once he has sufficient exercise, activities, and attention, he becomes a calm, easygoing companion. Due to his strength and temperament, we don’t recommend him for households with children. In the hands of an experienced owner, Turbo has the potential to become a wonderful, devoted friend for many years to come.

Imię: Turbo Data urodzenia: 01.05.2022 Wielkość: duża Turbo to młody, silny i bardzo energiczny pies o ogromnym potencjale. Jest inteligentny, zna podstawowe komendy i chętnie współpracuje z człowiekiem. Ma świadomość swojej siły, dlatego potrzebuje odpowiedzialnego, doświadczonego opiekuna, który zna potrzeby dużych i mocnych psów. Na spacerach zazwyczaj jest grzeczny i nie sprawia problemów. Gdy zauważy obcego psa, bardzo skupia na nim uwagę i może mocno ciągnąć w jego stronę — w takich sytuacjach wymaga spokojnego, pewnego prowadzenia. Z innymi psami generalnie dogaduje się dobrze, jednak w nowym domu najlepiej odnajdzie się jako jedynak. Turbo bardzo lubi ludzi i chętnie prosi o pieszczoty. Nie jest jeszcze nauczony odpowiedniej zabawy z człowiekiem — gdy zbyt mocno się nakręci, potrafi podskoczyć i doskoczyć do osoby obok. Nie wynika to ze złych intencji, lecz z potrzeby dalszej nauki właściwego rozładowywania emocji. Gdy ma zapewniony ruch, zajęcie i uwagę, staje się spokojnym, bezproblemowym towarzyszem. Ze względu na siłę i temperament nie polecamy go do domu z dziećmi. W rękach doświadczonej osoby Turbo ma szansę stać się wspaniałym, oddanym przyjacielem na długie lata.

About Turbo

What life with Turbo looks like

Turbo is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Fundacja SOS dla Zwierząt in Poland.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Turbo, answered.

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