How do I contact the shelter about Blini &#8211?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Schkortitz handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Blini &#8211 on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Blini &#8211 if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Schkortitz 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 Blini &#8211 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 Blini &#8211 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 Schkortitz early rather than rehoming privately; they know Blini &#8211 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.

Blini &#8211

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Blini and her siblings were taken in for foster care. They came from a facility with far too many dogs in one place, which is sadly very evident in Blini and her siblings. They missed out on a wealth of learning experiences that have significantly set their development back. With the exception of a few individuals, all are difficult to handle directly. Harnesses, collars, leashes, and training—everything is new and instills fear and panic. Additionally, the typical bumbling behavior of Dachshunds and Terriers is evident, making them stubborn and resistant to handling. They persistently show their reluctance and fear, clearly indicating what they do not want. Here, a great deal of patience, consistency, understanding, and dog experience is necessary to make up for these missed learning experiences. Showing pity or the classic "aww, so sweet" is completely out of place, as is a chaotic large family with many children. If present, the parents must manage the interaction between dog and child accordingly; otherwise, disaster is preprogrammed. Only confident first-time dog owners would be suitable for Blini, who is more gentle in handling. The lack of trust must be earned piece by piece. While Blini has already had some leash experiences, there is still a significant catch-up needed. We see the incredibly cute Blini as a single dog with the potential for 24/7 care in the coming months. Dog training classes and plenty of playful training are essential. Experienced dog owners are sought for unafraid mixed breeds, especially those with knowledge in handling anxious dogs. With much love, work, and consistency, the insecure fur ball can become the sweet companion that is immediately apparent. For those with a desire for a lot of relationship work and who are willing to patiently explain to Blini how much nicer it is to frolic through life happily, you will get your date with her. We look forward to knowledgeable interested parties for our small, curious Fusselqueen… Blini in Action:

Blini wurde samt Geschwistern zur pfleglichen Betreuung übergeben. Sie stammen aus einer Haltung mit viel zu vielen Hunden an einem Ort. Das zeigt sich leider sehr deutlich bei Blini und ihren Geschwistern. Sie haben Unmengen an Lernerfahrung verpasst, die den Wurf in der Entwicklung ordentlich zurückwirft. Bis auf einzelne Tiere sind alle schwierig im direkten Handling. Gurt, Halsband, Leine und Leinelaufen, Tierarztuntersuchungen – alles ist Neuland und versetzt sie in Angst und Schrecken. Dabei kommt erschwerend der rassetypische Bums zum Vorschein, den Dackel und Terrier in sich vereinen. Hartnäckig wird auf der Unlust und der Angst beharrt und deutlich wird gezeigt, worauf man gerade keine Lust hat. Hier ist entsprechend viel Geduld, Konsequenz, Verständnis und Hundeerfahrung nötig, um diese fehlenden Lernerfahrungen auszugleichen. Mitleid und das klassische „Achwiesüß“ sind absolut fehl am Platz, ebenso die Großfamilie mit viel Trubel und Kleinkindern. Wenn vorhanden, dann müssen die Eltern das Zusammenspiel von Hund und Kind entsprechend managen, andernfalls ist das Unglück vorprogrammiert. Nur souveräne Ersthunde kommen für die im Handling etwas sanfter veranlagte Blini in Frage. Das fehlende Vertrauen muss erst Stück für Stück erarbeitet werden. Erste Leinenerfahrungen gab es schon, trotzdem ist in dem Bereich noch erheblicher Nachholbedarf. Wir sehen die unglaublich niedliche Blini als Einzelhund mit der Möglichkeit zur 24/7 Betreuung in der kommenden Zeit. Hundeschule und viel spielerisches Training sind unerlässlich. Gesucht werden erfahrene Hundehalter für unerschrockene Rassemixe, auch mit Kenntnissen im Angsthundebereich. Mit viel Liebe, Arbeit und Konsequenz kann aus dem unsicheren Fellball die sweete Begleiterin werden, die man auf den ersten Blick erahnen kann. Wer Lust auf richtig viel Beziehungsarbeit hat und Blini geduldig erklären möchte, wieviel schöner es ist, fröhlich durchs Leben zu flitzen, bekommt sein Date mit ihr. Wir freuen uns auf sachkundige Interessenten für unseren kleine, neugierige Fusselqueen… Blini in Action:

About Blini &#8211

What life with Blini &#8211 looks like

Blini &#8211 is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Schkortitz in Grimma.

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.
