Velvet

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 2 years

This beautiful dog named Velvet arrived with us from Ukraine. He is around 1.5-2 years old (turning 2 by the end of 2024) and weighs about 20/22 kg. He tolerates other dogs, is gentle, and not aggressive. He walks nicely on a leash. He is afraid of flying airplanes, which remind him of the war.

About Velvet

What life with Velvet looks like

Velvet is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Dog Rescue Poland in Warsaw.

An young 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 Velvet, answered.

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