Żabcia

Mixed Breed · Female · Puppy · 5 months

Żabcia has been in our shelter for a short time. She spent her entire life confined in a small cage, additionally tethered to a chain that prevented her from even freely entering the building. She was also shocked with a stun device by her owner. Despite everything she has gone through, Żabcia still loves humans. She is a calm, sensitive female dog who enjoys closeness and spending time together. She likes to snuggle, seeks human contact, and does well during walks – she can walk on a leash. She is afraid of sudden movements and needs a gentle, calm approach, but she does not show aggression. This is a dog who, despite enormous harm, still trusts. Żabcia will find a home in an apartment or a house with a yard. We do not yet know her relationship with children and other dogs. We are looking for a home that will show her that life can look different. A home full of peace, safety, and love, which Żabcia very much deserves.

Żabcia jest w naszym azylu od niedawna. Całe swoje życie spędziła zamknięta w małym boksie, dodatkowo przypięta do łańcucha, który uniemożliwiał jej nawet swobodne wejście do budy. Była również rażona paralizatorem przez swojego właściciela. Mimo tego, co przeszła, Żabcia nadal kocha człowieka. Jest spokojną, czułą suczką, która uwielbia bliskość i wspólne spędzanie czasu. Lubi się przytulać, szuka kontaktu z człowiekiem i dobrze odnajduje się podczas spacerów – potrafi chodzić na smyczy. Boi się gwałtownych ruchów i potrzebuje delikatnego, spokojnego podejścia, ale nie wykazuje agresji. To pies, który mimo ogromnej krzywdy nadal potrafi ufać. Żabcia odnajdzie się zarówno w mieszkaniu, jak i w domu z ogrodem. Nie znamy jeszcze jej stosunku do dzieci oraz innych psów. Szukamy dla niej domu, który pokaże jej, że życie może wyglądać inaczej. Domu pełnego spokoju, bezpieczeństwa i miłości, na które Żabcia bardzo zasługuje.

About Żabcia

What life with Żabcia looks like

Żabcia is a medium-sized 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 Żabcia, answered.

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