Zumi

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 11 months

Meet ZUMI – a golden senior with a big heart. Found alone in the city center... no one was looking for him, no one came back for him. ZUMI is about 11 years old and weighs 16-17 kg. Despite his age and joint problems, he still loves life. As soon as he feels a person nearby, he wags his tail and seems to say: "Hey, I'm here... notice me." On walks, he wants to greet everyone, people and dogs alike. He is gentle, calm, and longs for affection. He would be happiest by the side of someone who loves quiet moments together under a blanket. He is visually impaired and mainly knows the world through his nose and ears. He has arthritis, so he needs a home without stairs. This is a dog who once had his person... and misses him very much. ZUMI is waiting in the shelter in Skierniewice. He is an older dog. There's no time to lose. Give him a home. Give him love for the autumn of his life.

Poznajcie ZUMIEGO – karmelowego seniora o wielkim sercu. Znaleziony samotny w centrum miasta… nikt go nie szukał, nikt po niego nie wrócił ZUMI ma ok. 11 lat i 16–17 kg. Mimo wieku i problemów ze stawami wciąż kocha życie. Gdy tylko poczuje człowieka blisko, merda ogonkiem i jakby mówił: „Hej, jestem tu… zauważ mnie” Na spacerach chce przywitać się ze wszystkimi, z ludźmi i psiakami. Jest łagodny, spokojny, spragniony czułości. Najszczęśliwszy byłby u boku kogoś, kto pokocha wspólne, spokojne chwile pod kocem Jest niedowidzący i świat poznaje głównie nosem i uszami Ma zwyrodnienia stawów więc potrzebuje domu bez schodów To pies, który kiedyś miał swojego człowieka… i bardzo za nim tęskni ZUMI czeka w schronisku w Skierniewicach. To starszy pies . Nie ma czasu do stracenia Daj mu dom. Daj mu miłość na jesień życia

About Zumi

What life with Zumi looks like

Zumi 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 Zumi, answered.

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