Arizona

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Puppy · 4 months

Saved from the heart: That tender little soul! Sometimes, a single second can determine an entire life. The life of our sweet-as-sugar Podenco-mix puppies almost began with a tragedy: Their heavily pregnant mother was on the verge of losing her babies because their previous owner had planned to terminate the pregnancy just before delivery. Thanks to a courageous veterinarian who refused to comply and our shelter team, which sprang into action immediately and found them homes, these little miracles were able to see the light of day. The lively bunch is now fully vaccinated (including their third vaccination) and officially welcomed into our shelter. Here, they finally have plenty of space to dash around, play, and grow a bit braver every single day. In the coming days, we’ll share new videos here showing how they’re gradually thawing out and rediscovering their joyful, puppy-like spirit! Breed: Podenco (mixed breed)—loyal, sensitive, and intelligent companions. Age: Typical, playful puppies at the perfect age to explore the world. Health: Fully vaccinated (three-dose series), microchipped, and ready for their new life. Temperament: Currently still gentle and cautious, but growing more curious and mobile with each passing day. We’re looking for loving, patient people for these precious souls—folks who’ll give them the time they need to settle in. Since they’ve hardly experienced any external stimuli so far, their new families should enjoy patiently teaching them the basics of doggy life step by step, using positive reinforcement (housebreaking, leash manners, everyday sounds). An experienced first dog to serve as a role model would be a dream—but it’s absolutely not a must.

Von Herzen gerettet: Das zarte Seelchen! Manchmal entscheidet eine einzige Sekunde über ein ganzes Leben. Das Leben unserer zuckersüßen Podenco-Mischlingswelpen begann fast mit einer Tragödie: Ihre hochschwangere Mama stand kurz davor, ihre Babys zu verlieren, weil ihr damaliger Besitzer die Trächtigkeit so kurz vor der Geburt abbrechen wollte. Dank eines mutigen Tierarztes, der sich weigerte, und unserem Tierheim-Team, das sofort einschritt und vermittelte, durften die kleinen Wunder das Licht der Welt erblicken. Die Rasselbande ist nun vollständig geimpft (inklusive der 3. Impfung) und offiziell bei uns im Tierheim eingezogen. Hier haben sie endlich Platz, um zu flitzen, zu spielen und jeden Tag ein Stückchen mutiger zu werden. In den nächsten Tagen werden wir euch hier mit neuen Videos zeigen, wie sie Schritt für Schritt auftauen und ihr fröhliches Welpen-Althergebrachte entdecken! Rasse: Podenco-(Mischlinge) – treue, sensible und kluge Begleiter.Alter: Typische, verspielte Welpen im besten Alter, um die Welt zu lernen.Gesundheit: Komplett durchgeimpft (3-fache Impfung), gechipt und bereit fürs neue Leben.Charakter: Aktuell noch sanft und vorsichtig, aber von Tag zu Tag neugieriger und beweglicher. Für diese Seelchen suchen wir liebevolle, geduldige Menschen, die ihnen die Zeit geben, die sie brauchen, um anzukommen. Da sie bisher kaum Außenreize kennen, sollten ihre neuen Familien Freude daran haben, ihnen kleinschrittig und mit positiver Verstärkung das Hundeeinmaleins (Stubenreinheit, Leinenführigkeit, Alltagsgeräusche) beizubringen. Ein souveräner Ersthund, an dem sie sich orientieren können, wäre ein Traum, ist aber absolut kein Muss.

About Arizona

What life with Arizona looks like

Arizona is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Europa in München.

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 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 Arizona, answered.

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