Bisia

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 9 years

Bisia came to us in early April from an animal shelter after her owner sadly passed away. Now, the female dog is looking for a place where she and her friend Elsa can stay. Although she is a bit over 10 years old, Bisia doesn’t show her age. She really enjoys going for walks and can hardly wait for it to be time to go. She is generally friendly and quite open to new people. However, as is typical for a French Bulldog, she has her own mind and likes to get her way. Bisia doesn’t know basic commands yet, and her leash manners still need some practice. But with treats, the loving Bisia is easily recallable and responds really well to her name, so there is definitely potential here. From her old home, she is familiar with living with cats.

Bisia kam Anfang April zu uns ins Tierheim, nachdem ihre Besitzerin leider verstorben ist. Nun ist die Hündin gemeinsam mit ihrer Freundin Elsa auf der Suche nach einem Plätzchen, wo sie bleiben dürfen. Mit knapp 10 Jahren ist Bisia zwar nicht mehr die Jüngste, doch anmerken lässt sie sich das nicht. Sie geht richtig gerne spazieren, kann es stets kaum erwarten, bis es endlich los geht. Auch ist sie grundsätzlich freundlich und neuen Menschen gegenüber recht aufgeschlossen. Doch typisch einer französischen Bulldogge hat sie ihren eigenen Kopf, den sie am Liebsten durchsetzen möchte. Grundkommandos beherrscht Bisia nicht, auch kann die Leinenführigkeit noch etwas geübt werden. Doch mit Leckerchen ist die liebe Bisia gut abrufbar, hört wirklich super auf ihren Namen, sodass hier sicher sehr gut angesetzt werden kann. Aus ihrem alten Zuhause kennt sie das Zusammenleben mit Katzen. Eine

About Bisia

What life with Bisia looks like

Bisia is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Zwickau in Zwickau.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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 Bisia, answered.

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