Werka

Unknown · Senior · 10 years

Werka – a wonderful, smart, but aging female dog of the Bavarian shepherd breed. Around 10 years old, weighing 25 kg and 55 cm tall. Well! After so many years of affection, she has been treated like unnecessary garbage in her old age. No interest from the owner... just an old dog that isn't worth looking for. The female dog has a friendly, social, and affectionate temperament. Every approach to her kennel is a joy expressed by her entire being. She likes people and enjoys spending time with them. Decisive and confident. Despite her age, she has great positive energy which she loves to use on walks. She does well on a leash, but it's easy to notice that freedom of movement would be a wonderful way for her to spend her time. She gets along well with other dogs, but is indifferent towards cats. Will Verce find a new home for the rest of her life? Come visit the animal shelter.

Werka – wspaniała, mądra, ale w sile wieku suczka w typie rasy posokowiec bawarski. W wieku około 10 lat, wagowo 25 kg i 55 cm. No cóż! Na tyle lat przywiązania na starość została potraktowana jak zbędny śmieć. Zero zainteresowania ze strony właściciela…po prostu stary pies, którego nie opłaca się szukać. Usposobienie suczki przyjazne, kontaktowe i towarzyskie. Każde zbliżenie się do jej kojca to radość okazywana całą sobą. Lubi ludzi i lubi spędzać z nimi czas. Zdecydowana i pewna siebie. Mimo wieku z ogromem pozytywnej energii, którą uwielbia pożytkować na spacerze. A dobrze radzi sobie na smyczy, lecz łatwo zaobserwować, iż swoboda w działaniu byłaby dla niej wspaniałą formą spędzania czasu. Zgodna z innymi psami, a koło kotów przechodzi obojętnie. Czy Werce uda się znaleźć nowy dom na resztę lat swojego życia? Zapraszamy do schroniska.

About Werka

What life with Werka looks like

Werka is a senior dog waiting at Wesoly Kundelek 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 Werka, answered.

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