(nz)Altea

Female · Young · 2 years

Altea is a friendly and easy-going Galgo female who was taken in by Altea from an overcrowded shelter to give the dogs a chance at a good home. Altea is still underweight and is being fed to gain some weight and be spayed. Her body has scars, but these will heal over time. Altea is a great companion for other dogs. We will update once Toni has taken her on a walk and can give his assessment. For now, Altea needs some time to rest. Born on 30.07.2024, size approximately 62 cm, friendly, easy-going, gets along with other dogs, at the shelter since August 2026. Altea is microchipped, vaccinated, spayed, tested for all Mediterranean diseases, and a blood test of organ values will be done before departure. Altea will be placed with a safety harness, a GPS tracker is mandatory.

Altea hat Minerva mit weiteren Galgos aus einem überfüllten Shelta übernommen, um den Hunden eine Chance auf ein gutes Zuhause zu geben. Altea ist, wie die anderen Galgas auch, noch sehr untergewichtig, sie wird gerade etwas gepäppelt, damit sie ein bisschen an Gewicht zunehmen und kastriert werden kann. Ihr Körper ist gezeichnet, aber das ist äußerlich und wird sich mit der Zeit geben. Charakterlich ist Altea eine ganz freundliche und unkomplizierte Hündin und verträglich mit allen Artgenossen. Wir werden erneut berichten, sobald sich Toni ihrer angenommen hat, sie mit ihm spazieren war und er seine Einschätzung abgeben kann. Vorerst aber soll Altea erstmal ein bisschen zur Ruhe kommen. Geboren 30.07.2024, Größe ca. 62 cm, Charakter: freundlich, unkompliziert, Verträglich mit Artgenossen, im Tierheim seit August 2026 Altea reist gechipt, geimpft, kastriert, auf alle Mittelmeerkrankheiten getestet, ebenfalls wird vor Ausreise ein Blutbild der Organwerte erstellt. Altea wird mit Sicherheitsgeschirr vermittelt, ein GPS-Tracker ist obligatorisch.

About (nz)Altea

What life with (nz)Altea looks like

(nz)Altea is a young adult dog waiting at TS Fellwechsel e.V. in Varel /nur Vereinssitz, kein Tierheim vor Ort.

A young 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting (nz)Altea, answered.

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