Amber

Mixed Breed · Female

Amber 07/2021 | female Amber has a pronounced fear issue. Trust is gained very slowly and must be earned again and again. She is not a dog "for the side" and not suitable for beginners. People with experience, patience and the ability to act calmly, clearly and reliably are sought. Anyone who is willing to invest time and tolerate setbacks can build a close bond in the long term. Those expecting quick closeness should think twice about adoption. I am Amber, a reserved, friendly mixed breed dog. I am actually a very cheerful mouse, I love to play or dig holes. Initially, I am very cautious and reserved, so I may not stand out immediately. Just give me some time and eventually curiosity will win over and I want to get to know you. Because I am definitely curious about everyone. After a few visits to me, the ice is certainly broken and we can go on an adventure together. Who is ready to give me a new life?

Amber 07/2021 | weiblich Amber bringt eine ausgeprägte Angstproblematik mit. Vertrauen entsteht bei ihr nur langsam und muss sich immer wieder neu verdient werden. Sie ist kein Hund „für nebenbei“ und nicht für Anfänger geeignet.Gesucht werden Menschen mit Erfahrung, Geduld und der Fähigkeit, ruhig, klar und verlässlich zu handeln. Wer bereit ist, Zeit zu investieren und Rückschritte auszuhalten, kann langfristig eine enge Bindung aufbauen. Wer schnelle Nähe erwartet, sollte von einer Adoption absehen. Ich bin Amber, eine zurückhaltende, freundliche Mischlingshündin. Ich bin eigentlich ein ganz fröhliche Maus, tobe gerne oder beschäftige mich damit, Löcher zu graben. Anfangs bin ich sehr vorsichtig & zurückhaltend, weshalb ich vielleicht nicht gleich ins Auge steche. Gebt mir einfach etwas Zeit und dann siegt irgendwann die Neugierde & ich möchte Euch kennen lernen. Denn neugierig bin ich auf jeden Fall. Nach ein paar Besuchen bei mir, ist das Eis bestimmt irgendwann gebrochen und wir können gemeinsam auf Abenteuersuche gehen. Wer ist bereit, mir ein neues Leben zu schenken?

About Amber

What life with Amber looks like

Amber is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Menschen für Tiere in Oberndorf a.N..

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 Amber, answered.

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