Yuna

Female · Adult · 4 years

At first glance, Yuna looks like a cute Caucasian Shepherd puppy: 100% sweetness. In reality, she is a young, but already mature female dog, whose gaze hides a baggage of experiences as well as... a mischievous spirit ready for antics. She is fragile, but extremely brave creature, who only knew life on the length of a chain. Still, she holds her pose. On a new path of life, she was given the name Yuna, which reflects her subtle nature, and we affectionately call her Jusia. Yuna likes to spend time close to humans, enjoying gentle petting, however she clearly sets boundaries. A stubborn girl, but willing to make concessions for the sake of the relationship. Free time she loves to spend on a comfortable nest - preferably at height, from where she looks at the world like a countess. In relationships with dogs, she sometimes resembles a teenager, who gladly goes wild with young ones, but accompanies adults in analyzing serious topics - like contemplating scents on a meadow. Yuna understands leash, knows muzzle, although no one would be surprised that it is not her favorite gadget. She will not find herself as a resident of a big city, a guard or a companion for children. Her future caregiver should be patient, well understand dog body language and be ready for gradual relationship building. When this is successful, you can steal hearts with Jusia! - Temperament: subtle, sensitive, but with a sense of humor, mistrustful towards strangers, builds relationships slowly - Relationship with dogs: positive, rather prefers larger ones - Relationship with cats: unknown - Relationship with children: minimum 13 years old - Residence:

Na pierwszy rzut oka Yuna wygląda jak szczenię owczarka kaukaskiego: 100% słodyczy. W rzeczywistości to młoda, ale już dorosła suczka, za której spojrzeniem kryje się krucha, ale niezwykle dzielna istotka. Pieszczotliwie nazywamy ją Jusią. Zanim trafiła do schroniska, życie znała tylko na długość łańcucha. Raczej nie zaznała czułej opieki, ale dziś sama szuka bliskości człowieka i krok po kroku wpuszcza nas do swojego świata. Jest uparciuszką, która wyraźnie stawia granice, ale jest gotowa na ustępstwa dla dobra relacji. Yuna ma swoje „łąkowe rytuały”: uwielbia spacery w spokojnym tempie, kontemplując każde źdźbło trawy. Chętnie przysiada na wspólną posiadówkę z człowiekiem, czesanie i zadumę. Czasem potrafi też pobrykać lub tarzać się, by zebrać pamiątki z lasu. Dobrze czuje się w towarzystwie innych psów i potrafi zgodnie dzielić krzaczek do wąchania. Preferuje dorosłe psy o podobnym do niej temperamencie. Od czasu do czasu zaszaleje z młodziakami, ale pod warunkiem, że nie wprowadzają niepotrzebnego chaosu. Nie odnajdzie się jako mieszkanka wielkiego miasta, stróż posesji czy towarzyszka dla dzieci. Najbardziej lubi nieśpieszne życie, bez specjalnych atrakcji. Dobre jedzenie, wygodne piernaty do spania, trochę natury, obecność swoich ludzi i dużo świętego spokoju to jej przepis na szczęście. Jej przyszły opiekun powinien być cierpliwy, uważny na potrzeby psa i gotowy na stopniowe budowanie relacji. - Usposobienie: subtelna, wrażliwa, ale z poczuciem humoru, relację buduje powoli - Stosunek do psów: pozytywny, raczej woli dorosłe - Stosunek do kotów: nieznany - Stosunek do dzieci: minimum nastolatki - Zamieszkanie: dom z ogrodem w spokojnej okolicy Katarzyna 605 258 020 Katarzyna 608 616 990

About Yuna

What life with Yuna looks like

Yuna is a large adult dog waiting at Schronisko Na Paluchu in Warsaw.

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.

Note from the shelter: Needs patient owner who understands dog body language, requires gradual trust building

🇵🇱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 Yuna, answered.

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