American Staffordshire Terrier Lucy

Mixed Breed · Male · Adult · 5 years

American Staffordshire Terrier I am female, microchipped, vaccinated, and born in 2015. I have been waiting since November 2021 for a new home. I am approximately 35 cm tall. My caretakers say about me: Lucy was given to us for time-related reasons to find a home where she can be more justly treated. She was described as incompatible, so she does not need any other pets in her new home. A male dog with authority would be worth a try, but female dogs are not. She is apartment-friendly, house-trained, not a barker, and generally alert within normal limits. She also had some extra weight, which is currently being addressed. Despite this, she enjoys walks and also passes well by other dogs. She is an excellent and well-behaved passenger and loves outings that start in the car. She likes snuggling sessions and coziness with her people. The size is not relevant; she loves bipeds of any age. Children are no problem, of course, under appropriate guidance from parents and ideally with experience in handling dogs. Over a house with a garden, Lucy would have been absolutely happy, of course, she will also be rehomed as suitable for apartment living. To be noted are the requirements that apply when adopting a listed dog. We are happy to assist you with serious interest. Who would like to support our Pummelfee with her diet program and meet her on a walk?

American Staffordshire Terrier Ich bin weiblich, gechipt, geimpft und 2015 geboren. Ich warte seit November 2021 auf ein neues Zuhause. Ich bin circa 35 cm gross. Das sagen meine Betreuer über mich: Lucy ist aus Zeitgründen bei uns abgegeben worden, um ein Zuhause zu finden, was ihr besser gerecht werden kann. Sie wurde als unverträglich bezeichnet, benötigt also keine weiteren Tiere im neuen Zuhause. Maximal ein souveräner Rüde wäre einen Versuch wert, Hündinnen jedoch nicht. Sie kennt die Wohnungshaltung, ist stubenrein, kein Kläffer und im normalen Rahmen wachsam. Sie hatte auch einiges an Übergewicht im Gepäck, daran wird aktuell gearbeitet. Trotzdem läuft sie gern Gassi und auch prima an anderen Hunden vorbei. Sie ist eine hervorragende und brave Beifahrerin und liebt Ausflüge, die im Auto beginnen. Sie mag Kuscheleinheiten und Gemütlichkeit mit Ihren Menschen. Die Größe ist nicht relevant, sie liebt Zweibeiner jeden Alters. Kinder sind kein Problem, natürlich unter entsprechender Anleitung der Eltern und möglichst schon mit Erfahrung im Umgang mit Hunden. Über ein Haus mit Garten ware Lucy absolut happy, natürlich wird sie auch in reine Wohnungshaltung vermittelt. Zu beachten sind die Auflagen, die bei Adoption eines Listenhundes erforderlich sind. Wir unterstützen Sie gern dabei bei ernsthaftem Interesse. Wer möchte unsere Pummelfee bei ihrem Diätprogramm unterstützen und sie auf einem Spaziergang kennenlernen?

About American Staffordshire Terrier Lucy

What life with American Staffordshire Terrier Lucy looks like

American Staffordshire Terrier Lucy is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Schkortitz in Grimma.

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 American Staffordshire Terrier Lucy, answered.

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