Werona

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 4 months

Verona is looking for a home! Today is a special day - we are finally officially introducing you to Verona and announcing her for adoption! This beautiful, large female dog weighs about 30 kg, is about 4 years old, and came under our care on June 22nd of this year. We waited with this announcement until now, because Verona needed time to see that the world outside the shelter box is not so scary. From the first days in the shelter, Verona showed that she is an extremely loving and gentle dog. However, she had one huge problem - she was terrified of collars and leashes. She reacted to the attempt to put on accessories with escape and loud whining. We gave her time, patience, and with small steps, we taught her touch and acceptance of the leash. Today, we can proudly say: Verona goes for walks! She still doesn't like the moment of putting on the leash, but as soon as she starts the journey, she begins to fully understand how wonderful it is to go outside the shelter. Verona loves human presence without limits! She loves petting, hugging, and seeks closeness with caregivers at every possible opportunity. She has done a great job on her emotions and is becoming more and more courageous every day. In contact with other quadrupeds, it is different - her attitude towards dogs is selective. If she were to live in a house where there is already another dog, a preliminary acquaintance walk would be necessary. We do not know her reaction to cat company, because we did not have the opportunity to check it. We are looking for understanding, patient, and experienced caregivers for Verona, who will continue the work on her self-confidence. Give this brave girl the home she so richly deserves. She is spayed, dewormed, vaccinated, and chipped.

Werona szuka domu! Dziś wyjątkowy dzień - wreszcie oficjalnie przedstawiamy Wam Weronę i ogłaszamy ją do adopcji! Ta piękna, duża sunia waży około 30 kg, ma około 4 lata i trafiła pod naszą opiekę 22 czerwca tego roku. Czekaliśmy z tym ogłoszeniem aż do teraz, bo Werona potrzebowała czasu, by zobaczyć, że świat poza schroniskowym boksem nie jest taki straszny. Od pierwszych dni w schronisku Werona pokazała, że jest niezwykle przekochaną i łagodną sunią. Miała jednak jeden ogromny problem - panicznie bała się obroży i smyczy. Na próbę założenia akcesoriów reagowała ucieczką i głośnym piskiem. Daliśmy jej czas, cierpliwość i metodą małych kroków uczyliśmy ją dotyku oraz akceptacji smyczy. Dziś z dumą możemy powiedzieć: Werona wychodzi na spacery! Nadal nie przepada za samym momentem podpinania smyczy, ale gdy tylko rusza w drogę, zaczyna w pełni rozumieć, jak wspaniałe są wyjścia poza schronisko. Werona bezgranicznie kocha obecność człowieka! Uwielbia głaskanie, przytulanie i szuka bliskości z opiekunami przy każdej możliwej okazji. Wykonała wielką pracę nad swoimi emocjami i z dnia na dzień staje się coraz odważniejsza. W kontaktach z innymi czworonogami bywa różnie - jej stosunek do psów jest selektywny. Jeśli miałaby zamieszkać w domu, w którym jest już inny pies, konieczny będzie wcześniejszy spacer zapoznawczy. Nie znamy jej reakcji na kocie towarzystwo, ponieważ nie mieliśmy możliwości tego sprawdzić. Szukamy dla Werony wyrozumiałych, cierpliwych i doświadczonych opiekunów, którzy będą kontynuować pracę nad jej pewnością siebie. Podaruj tej dzielnej dziewczynie dom, na jaki tak bardzo zasługuje. Jest wysterylizowana, odrobaczona, zaszczepiona i zaczipowana.

About Werona

What life with Werona looks like

Werona is a large 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Werona, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Werona?
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 Werona on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Werona 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 Werona 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 Werona 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 Werona 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.
