Wena

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 14 years

Name: WENA Registration number: 27/2020 At animal shelter since: 04.2014 Estimated date of birth: 2012 Year Size: medium Wena is very trusting of people and is very eager for contact - shut in the shelter box she is very lonely. Female dog is very affectionate, polite, walks very nicely on a leash, and is also an incorrigible cuddler. She is always wanting to snuggle, give kisses - desperately demanding attention and love. Wena however requires experienced hands, because some situations such as going to the vet cause great fear and panic, then she doesn't think about what she is doing. Therefore, she definitely isn't suitable as the first pet in the home and for people who don't have experience with dogs, as well as for a home with children. She is a bit afraid of men. She is a sensitive dog, who needs a lot of patience, much feeling and understanding of canine behavior and signals. Wena is waiting for a person, who will be a faithful and devoted companion.

Imię: WENA Nr rejestru: 27/2020 W schronisku od: 04.2014 Szacowana data urodzenia: 2012 rok Wielkość: średnia Wena ogromnie ufa ludziom i jest bardzo spragniona kontaktu z nimi - zamknięta w schroniskowym boksie bardzo tęskni. Sunia jest przesympatyczna, grzeczna, bardzo ładnie chodzi na smyczy, jest też niepoprawną pieszczochą. Cały czas chciałaby się przytulać, rozdawać buziaki - rozpaczliwie domaga się zainteresowania i miłości. Wena wymaga jednak doświadczonych rąk, bo niektóre sytuacje jak pójście do weterynarza wywołują duży lęk i panikę, wtedy nie myśli co robi. Nie nadaje się więc na pewno na pierwszego zwierzaka w domu i dla ludzi nie mających doświadczenia z psami, jak również do domu z dziećmi. Nieco obawia się mężczyzn. Jest sunią, która potrzebuje sporo cierpliwości, wiele uczucia i rozumienia psich zachowań i sygnałów. Wena czeka na człowieka, dla którego będzie wierną i oddaną towarzyszką.

About Wena

What life with Wena looks like

Wena is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Olsztynie in Poland.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇵🇱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 Wena, answered.

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