Adopt Candela Blue Eyes (w)

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 9 years

Candela Blue Eyes, the awesome mouse (born 08.03.2017 and about 50 cm in size), arrived at the shelter with her pups under Madalina. They are doing well, she has enough to eat, a house, and some protection from the elements, but that is not all she expects from life. Candela is friendly but very reserved; she would like to trust but does not immediately feel comfortable… Her trust must be earned. She initially mistrusts people in general and must first check everything to ensure there is no real danger; she retreats and observes first when someone approaches. But if you approach her calmly, she will allow herself to be stroked after a short time. We think that when she is out of the shelter, has acclimated, and then people with hearts and patience give her the time to come, and provide her with protection and security, she will open up quite quickly and become the happy dog she once was. The caretakers try to engage with each dog, but unfortunately, they do not have much time, so Candela often comes up short. Candela is looking for a family with a heart and patience, with empathy… who simply shows her that they love her and that she no longer has to be afraid. She is such a lovely girl and should not have to spend the rest of her life in a cage. Who shows the cuddly mouse the beautiful sides of life? Who shows her that people can also be good? Candela will be neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, and then depart for the Mediterranean test and EU Pass. All our dogs come to Nuremberg and want to be picked up there. Email:. This is a puppy.

Candela Blue Eyes, die tolle Maus (geb.08.03.2017 und ca. 50 cm groß) ist mit ihren Welpen bei Madalina im Shelter gelandet. Ihr geht es gut, sie hat genug zu fressen, eine Hütte und etwas Schutz vor den Elementen, aber das ist ja nicht alles was sie vom Leben erwartet. Candela ist freundlich, aber sehr zurückhaltend, sie möchte gern, auch wenn sie sich nicht gleich so richtig traut…. Ihr Vertrauen muss man sich erst verdienen. Sie mißtraut erst mal den Menschen allgemein und muss erst alles abchecken, ob ihr auch wirklich keine Gefahr droht, sie zieht sich zurück und beobachtet erst mal, nähert man sich ihr. Aber wenn man es ruhig angeht, dann läßt sie sich schon nach kurzer Zeit streicheln. Wir denken, wenn sie erst mal aus dem Shelter raus ist, sich akklimatisieren konnte und dann Menschen mit Herz und Geduld ihr die Zeit geben anzukommen und ihr Schutz und Sicherheit vermitteln, dann wird sie sich ziemlich schnell öffnen und wieder der fröhliche Hund werden, der sie einmal war. Die Pfleger versuchen jedem Hund immer etwas Ansprache zu geben, aber viel Zeit bleibt den Pflegern leider nicht, also kommt sie immer zu kurz. Candela sucht eine Familie mit Herz und Geduld, mit Einfühlungsvermögen ….die ihr einfach zeigt, dass sie sie lieb haben, dass sie keine Angst mehr haben muss. Sie ist so ein liebes Mädel und soll nicht den Rest ihres Lebens in einem Zwinger verbringen müssen. Wer zeigt der Knuddel- Maus die schönen Seiten des Lebens? Wer zeigt ihr, dass Menschen auch gut sein können? Candela wird Rumänien kastriert, geimpft, gechipt, entwurmt und mit Mittelmeertest und EU-Pass verlassen. Alle unsere Hunde kommen in Nürnberg an und wollen auch da abgeholt werden. Email:

About Candela Blue Eyes (w)

What life with Candela Blue Eyes (w) looks like

Candela Blue Eyes (w) is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tiernothilfe Casa Katharina e.V. in Nürnberg.

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 Candela Blue Eyes (w), answered.

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