Balu & Mia

French Bulldog · Female · Adult · 8 years

sehr freundlich und lieb, Mia anfangs etwas zurückhalten, Balou sehr anhänglich und menschenbezogen Über Balu & Mia Balou und Mia hatten bisher noch kein normales Hundeleben, aber sie hatten immer sich. Mia kümmert sich beeindruckend um ihren Balou und sie sind ein Herz und eine Seele. Daher wird auf jeden Fall ein gemeinsames Zuhause für die beiden gesucht, denn eine Trennung wäre für sie sehr schlimm. Beide sind sehr menschenbezogen und verschmust und lieben ihre kleine Spaziergänge. Autofahren ist kein Problem und sie können auch stundenweise alleine bleiben.

About Balu & Mia

What life with Balu & Mia looks like

Balu & Mia is a small adult french bulldog dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Russelsheim in Rüsselsheim.

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 Balu & Mia, answered.

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