12. Mikkel

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 7 years

Mikkel is a ca. 7 year old male dog that we took in from an elderly lady because she could no longer take care of him. He is a totally friendly guy, cuddly, even still playful, clingy, and well-socialized with fellow animals and cats. On the leash, he can walk pretty well. Mikkel is dewormed, microchipped, vaccinated, neutered, has a height of ca. 52 cm, and weighs ca. 28 kg (of which he should lose 3-5 kg 🙈)

Mikkel ist ein ca. 7 Jahre alter Rüde, den wir von einer alten Dame übernommen haben, weil sie sich nicht mehr um ihn kümmern konnte. Er ist ein total freundlicher Kerl, verschmust, sogar noch verspielt, anhänglich, mit Artgenossen und Katzen gut sozialisiert. An der Leine kann er einigermaßen gut laufen. Mikkel ist entwurmt, gechipt, geimpft, kastriert, hat eine SH von ca. 52 cm und wiegt ca. 28 Kg (wovon er 3-5 Kg loswerden sollte 🙈)

About 12. Mikkel

What life with 12. Mikkel looks like

12. Mikkel is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Salvate Canes e.V. in Alfeld.

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 Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.

Frequently asked

Adopting 12. Mikkel, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about 12. Mikkel?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Salvate Canes e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw 12. Mikkel on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt 12. Mikkel if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Salvate Canes e.V. 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 12. Mikkel 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 12. Mikkel 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 Salvate Canes e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know 12. Mikkel 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 (DE). 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.
