adoption requirements adoption process Adopt this animal now! adoption requirements adoption process Athena has found her people! Her story: Friendly energy bundle seeks her family. Athena is a charming, approximately 1-year-old female, who gets along well with her fellow animals and is also very friendly with people. Originally, she was housed in a Romanian foster home, which she had to leave unfortunately. Her open gaze, the brown head with sweet floppy ears, and the beautiful brown-and-white fur give her a fascinating appearance and put a smile on everyone's face. With her current shoulder height of approximately 61 cm, Athena is one of the larger dogs. She is still puppy-like playful and is already practicing fetching. We appreciate that Athena is a facetted German Short-Haired Pointer mix with the corresponding traits of a hunting dog. This breed typically shows itself under straight-line training and regular engagement through hunting tasks as an attached and playful family dog. We hope to find a sporty and active family for Athena that does justice to the specific engagement like physical fitness and the prey drive. Especially because she already showed in her Romanian foster home what a great female dog she is and what potential she has to become a lifelong partner. However, our feathered friends should be cautious of Athena, but cats do not need to worry about her in her presence. In her Romanian foster home, Athena already got to know life in a family. However, she still has a lot to learn. Age-appropriately, there are probably pubertal whims in the young female dog's head, and she will initially question some rules. A phase in which it is particularly important to consistently but lovingly train and forgive the occasional mishap. Positive working dog training classes that provide species-appropriate activities like agility training, tracking work, and fetching games, as well as obedience training, are recommended after an appropriate adjustment period. Mental stimulation can also be enhanced with intelligence toys and search games. We would also be happy to have a foster home outside of Romania for the sweet fur-nose. Please contact us if you would like to experience many new adventures with Athena. Athena will be rehomed for an adoption fee of 500 Euros and will step forward after a positive. We thank Cristina! You have given Athena her own identity and the chance to find her own family. As of: 12.02. This animal is vaccinated. This animal is microchipped.

Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Jetzt dieses Tier anfragen! Vermittlungsvoraussetzungen Vermittlungsablauf Athena hat ihre Menschen gefunden! Ihre Geschichte: Freundliches Energiebündel sucht ihre Familie. Athena ist ein bezauberndes ca. 1 Jahr altes Mädchen, das sich mit ihren Artgenossen gut versteht und auch zu den Menschen sehr freundlich ist. Ursprünglich war sie in einer rumänischen Pflegestelle untergebracht, diese musste sie nun leider verlassen. Ihr offener Blick, das braune Köpfchen mit den süßen Schlappohren und das wunderschöne braun-weiße Fell verleihen ihr ein faszinierendes Aussehen und zaubert jedem ein Lächeln ins Gesicht. Mit ihren aktuell ca. 61 cm Schulterhöhe gehört Athena zu den großen Hunden. Sie ist noch welpentypisch verspielt und übt sich schon fleißig im Apportieren. Wir schätzen, dass Athena ein facettenreicher Deutsch Kurzhaar Mix mit ggf. den entsprechenden Eigenschaften eines Jagdhundes. Diese Rasse zeigt sich in der Regel unter einer gradlinigen Erziehung und regelmäßiger Auslastung durch Jagdaufgaben als anhänglicher und verspielter Familienhund. Wir hoffen eine sportliche und bewegungsfreundliche Familie für Athena zu finden, die der spezifischen Auslastung wie körperliche Fitness und dem Jagdtrieb gerecht wird. Vor allem weil sie in ihrer Pflegestelle in Rumänien bereits zeigt, was sie für eine großartige Hündin ist und welches Potential in ihr steckt, eine Partnerin fürs Leben zu werden. Unsere gefiederten Freunde jedoch sollten sich vor Athena in Acht nehmen, dahingegen Katzen in ihrer Anwesenheit momentan keine Sorgen haben müssen. In ihrer rumänischen Pflegestelle durfte Athena das Leben in einer Familie schon kennenlernen. Allerdings wird sie noch viel lernen müssen. Altersgemäß stecken wahrscheinlich pubertäre Flausen im Kopf der jungen Hündin und sie wird anfänglich die ein oder andere Regel hinterfragen. Eine Phase, in der es besonders wichtig ist, konsequent, aber liebevoll zu erziehen, und das eine oder andere Missgeschick zu verzeihen. Eine positiv arbeitende Hundeschule, die artgerecht Beschäftigungsmöglichkeiten wie Agility-Training, Fährtenarbeit und Apportierspiele, aber auch Gehorsamkeitstraining unterstützt, sind nach einer angemessenen Eingewöhnungszeit zu empfehlen. Auch mit Intelligenzspielzeugen und Suchspielen lässt sich die mentale Auslastung wunderbar ergänzen. Über eine Pflegestelle außerhalb Rumäniens für die süße Fellnase würden wir uns genauso freuen. Meldet euch gerne bei uns, wenn ihr mit Athena viele neue Abenteuer erleben möchtet. Athena wird gegen eine Schutzgebühr von 500 Euro vermittelt und tritt nach einer positiven Vorkontrolle ihre Reise kastriert, gechipt, geimpft, entwurmt und entfloht mit ihrem EU-Heimtierausweis im Gepäck zu ihrer Familie an. Wir danken Cristina! Du hast Athena eine eigene Identität und die Chance geschenkt ihre eigene Familie zu finden. Stand: 12.02.2025

About Athena

What life with Athena looks like

Athena is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Ein Herz für Streuner e.V. in München.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Athena, answered.

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