Żarko

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

Following an unsuccessful adoption, we’re once again looking for a forever home for Żarko—this time, one that will last his entire life, through thick and thin! Żarko is about 3–4 years old and is a medium-sized dog. He loves people and is gentle around humans. Above all else, Żarko adores walks. At the shelter, he learned to walk on a leash and happily dashes off into the woods. However, he doesn’t enjoy returning to his kennel. The dog gets along with some dogs but doesn’t like others and often provokes conflicts with them himself. If he were to live with another dog, it would be essential to introduce them first. We don’t know how he’d fare with cats. Contact: 691 537 446 / 799 472 233 Gender: female Estimated birth year: c. 2021 Size: medium Status: coming soon We want to find the very best possible home for him, so we’ll ask interested adopters to fill out an adoption questionnaire: kundellos.pl/ankieta-adopcyjna/ By adopting a dog, you’re taking responsibility for the life of a living being for the next dozen or so years. An animal is not a possession. We do not give dogs away on chains! A condition of adoption is signing an adoption agreement, covering the costs of preventive care, and agreeing to potential pre- and post-adoption visits. It’s also a requirement that the dog undergo sterilization or castration at a specified time, provided this procedure hasn’t already been performed.

🏠 Przebywa w schronisku na sektorze DPo nieudanej adopcji, ponownie szukamy domu dla Żarko – tym razem takiego do końca życia, na dobre i na złe! Żarko ma około 3-4 lata i jest psem średniej wielkości. Lubi ludzi i jest łagodny wobec człowieka. Najbardziej na świecie Żarko kocha spacery. Nauczył się w schronisku chodzenia na smyczy i radośnie gna do lasu. Nie lubi za to wracać do swojego boksu. Psiak dogaduje się z niektórymi psami, a innych nie lubi i sam prowokuje z nimi awantury. Gdyby miał zamieszkać z innym psem, konieczne jest zapoznanie. Nie znamy jego stosunku do kotów.

Zwierzę nie jest rzeczą. Nie wydajemy psów na łańcuch! Warunkiem adopcji jest podpisanie umowy adopcyjnej, zwrot kosztów profilaktyki oraz zgoda na ewentualne wizyty przed i poadopcyjne. Warunkiem adopcji jest też wykonanie zabiegu sterylizacji/kastracji w ustalonym terminie, o ile zabieg ten nie był wykonany wcześniej.

About Żarko

What life with Żarko looks like

Żarko is an adult mixed breed dog waiting at Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Józefowie in Józefów.

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

Frequently asked

Adopting Żarko, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Żarko?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Józefowie handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Żarko on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Żarko if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Schronisko dla Zwierząt w Józefowie 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Żarko 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 Żarko 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 dla Zwierząt w Józefowie early rather than rehoming privately; they know Żarko 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.
