ZąBek

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 8 years

Ząbek, an exceptional dog, not to be fooled! He got his name from a beautiful snout, which likes to dry when Ząbek has his mouth closed. It looks adorable! No neighbor on the estate will have such a dog, maybe not even anyone in the entire West Pomeranian region! Ząbek is a dog who calmly and joyfully goes through life. He walks nicely on a leash, has no problems with other dogs (he even lives in a box with one of them). He copes very well in street traffic. As soon as I opened the car, he jumped in immediately. That surprised us very positively! He was found with a huge piece of chain around his neck. It often happens that dogs who hang on chains know nothing of life except for the trampled paths around the house and everything new is difficult for them. But not for Ząbek! He loves water and splashes in the shelter's stream. I love watching how he and his friend Salto do dives together. Ząbek would really like to go to a home. He doesn't like the animal shelter, and every return to the box is a hard experience for him - and for us volunteers as well. He is a small dog, weighing 14 kg and about 7 years old. He has been neutered. If you are looking for a calm, positively oriented dog, call volunteer Karolina and arrange a meeting. If you want to help this dog, but cannot adopt him, we invite you for walks! Every day at . CONTACT ABOUT THE DOG KarolinA 501 , OR OFFICE 513 135 375 Ząbek, an exceptional dog, not to be fooled!

About ZąBek

What life with ZąBek looks like

ZąBek is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko Choszczno in Poland.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇵🇱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 ZąBek, answered.

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