Zoja

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 8 years

Zoja ❤️❤️❤️ Wandering near a local store, she later lay down on the grass nearby and didn't have the strength to go any further 😞😞😞 This tired wanderer was weak, hungry, and thirsty. She only made it to us thanks to the sensitivity of two young people. She didn't have a chip or an address. Around her neck was an old, patched collar, and her fur underneath was energetic. She is very gentle, in her mid-age, possibly 8 years old, with a build similar to a golden retriever. Unfortunately, nobody is looking for her. We gave her this name ourselves.

ZOJA ❤️❤️❤️ Błąkala się w okolicach lokalnego sklepu, później położyła się na trawie nieopodal i nie miała siły iść dalej 😞😞😞 Zmęczona tułaczka, wychudzona, spragniona i głodna. Trafiła do nas tylko dzięki wrażliwości dwójki młodych ludzi. Nie posiadała chipa ani adresatki. Na szyi miała starą, parcianą obrożę a pod nią wytartą sierść. Jest bardzo łagodna,w średnim wieku, może mieć 8 lat , o gabarytach goldena . Niestety, nikt jej nie szuka. Imię daliśmy sami.

About Zoja

What life with Zoja looks like

Zoja is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Fundacja Puszatek in Warszawa.

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.

🇵🇱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 Zoja, answered.

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