Adopt Bambi

Chihuahua · Female · Puppy · 4 months

Since us: 28.5.2026 Features: Compatible with fellow animals, cats, and children Character: clingy, cuddly, outgoing, playful Bambi is as soft and gentle as a little deer, as its name suggests. But she can also be feisty behind her small ears. This approximately 30 cm tall and 3 kg heavy puppy-dog will not grow much larger when fully grown. The little one is likely a Chihuahua mix but will be a bit larger than a typical Chihuahua. Bambi is puppy-like in her playfulness, activity, and clinginess to her people. She is generally people-oriented but needs about 2-3 minutes to warm up. While she may not be comfortable to be picked up right away, she will happily hop up and down and get excited. The little puppy-dog is an active puppy-dog and is looking for an active family or person who wants to take her and explore the world with her. She likes to run on her own four paws and does not want to be carried around despite her delicate weight. Of course, this is sometimes okay. Bambi knows cats, has no problem with fellow animals, and has no issue with large dogs, but one must be careful due to her small size. She also has no problem with children, but they should be old enough to understand that Bambi is not a toy or a cuddly pet. The little mouse would have fun learning tricks and how to move like a big dog outside, sniffing around, and getting tasks. She needs to learn to be house-trained, be left alone, and walk on a leash. Anyone who enjoys exploring the world with a puppy-dog that stays small and wants to give the little lady security, safety, and trust, is exactly right for Bambi. Gets along with other dogs.

Bei uns seit: 28.5.2026 Merkmale: Verträglich mit Artgenossen, Katzen und Kindern Charakter: Anhänglich, verschmust, zutraulich, verspielt Bambi ist wie ihr Name es schon sagt zart und sanft wie ein kleines Reh. Sie kann es aber auch faustdick hinter ihren kleinen Öhrchen haben. Das ca 30 cm hohe und 3 kg schwere Hundemädchen, wird auch ausgewachsen nicht groß sein. Die kleine ist vermutlich ein Chihuahua Mix, wird aber etwas größer als diese werden. Bambi ist welpentypisch verspielt, aktiv und anhänglich an ihre Menschen. Sie ist Menschen allgemein zugewandt, benötigt aber 2-3 Minuten um aufzutauen. Anfassen ist nicht gleich bei jedem drin, dafür aber freudiges auf und abhüpfen und aufgeregtes springen. Das kleine Welpenmädchen ist ein aktives Hundemädchen und sucht auch eine aktive Familie oder Person, die Lust hat Bambi mit zu nehmen und die Welt mit ihr zu erkunden. Sie läuft gerne auf ihren eigenen vier Pfötchen und möchte trotz ihres zarten Gewichts nicht dauerhaft getragen werden. Gelegentlich ist dies natürlich okay. Bambi kennt Katzen, hat kein Problem mit Artgenossen, bei großen Hunden muss man natürlich etwas aufpassen, wegen ihrer geringen Größe und hat mit Kindern kein Problem. Die aber alt genug sein sollten um zu verstehen, dass Bambi kein Spielzeug oder Kuscheltier ist. Die kleine Maus hätte Spaß daran Tricks zu lernen und wie ein großer Hund sich draußen zu bewegen, zu schnüffeln und Aufgaben zu bekommen. Stubenrein sein, alleine bleiben, Grundkommandos und an der Leine mitlaufen muss die kleine Maus noch lernen. Wer Spaß daran hat mit einem klein bleibenden Hundemädchen die Welt zu entdecken und der kleinen Hundedame dabei Sicherheit, Geborgenheit und Vertrauen zu schenken, ist bei Bambi genau richtig.

About Bambi

What life with Bambi looks like

Bambi is a small puppy/kitten chihuahua dog waiting at Tierschutz Eutin und Umgebung e.V. in Eutin.

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 Bambi, answered.

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