Adopt Carolina

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Puppy · 4 months

Carolina is a truly wonderful Podencomädchen with classic Pomestütz ears, friendly, lively eyes to fall in love with, and redbrown-and-white spotted fur. Unfortunately, her story is another sad chapter in the long list of this breed. The pregnant Carolina was spotted in a rural housing development by passersby and reported to the animal shelter. Since she had fled to private property, the shelter staff were initially helpless and had to watch her repeatedly cross the dangerous main road. Finally, with the help of a cage trap, the entire young family was captured and brought to safety at the animal shelter. They were lucky, Carolina and the seven beautiful babies Selma, Lisa, Yanis, Willie, Bart, Barney, and Moe, whose names the entire Simpson family had to provide, were all healthy and lively, and everyone could breathe a sigh of relief. Carolina is still a bit thin, the puppies are taking a lot of energy from the young mother. She is a wonderful mother and raises her sweet little ones with great tenderness and care. Carolina has a very innocent and noble nature, is still suspicious of strangers, and must be won over by her new family with time, patience, and empathy. But not in a rush, but with calmness, patience, and understanding. Out of the shy girl, over time, a typical funny Podenco clown will surely become, full of trust and love for her family. It is now time for Carolina to come to a home with a guarantee of spoiling, where her gentle canine soul is cherished and can unfold gradually. © 2006-2024 by animal welfare association Europa e.V.

Carolina ist ein ganz wundervolles Podencomädchen mit klassischen Pommestüten-Ohren, freundlichen, aufgeweckten Augen zum Verlieben und rehbraun-weiß geschecktem Fell. Leider ist auch ihre Geschichte nichts als ein weiteres trauriges Kapitel in der langen Liste dieser Rasse. Die trächtige Carolina wurde in einer Wohnsiedlung auf dem Land von Spaziergängern gesehen und beim Tierheim gemeldet. Da sie sich auf ein Privatgrundstück geflüchtet hatte waren den Tierheimmitarbeitern erst einmal die Hände gebunden und sie mussten zusehen, wie sie immer wieder die gefährliche Hauptstraße überquerte. Schließlich brachte Carolina ihre sieben wunderschönen Babys in einem alten Schuppen des Bauerhofes zur Welt und eine Freiwillige hatte die Erlaubnis des Besitzers erhalten, die Hunde mit frischem Wasser, Futter und Decken zu versorgen. Mithilfe einer Käfigfalle gelang es schließlich, die ganze junge Familie einzufangen und ins Tierheim in Sicherheit zu bringen. Das Glück war mit ihnen, Carolina und die sieben Babys Selma, Lisa, Yanis, Willie, Bart, Barney und Moe, für deren Namen die ganze Simpsons Familie herhalten musste, waren gesund und munter und alle konnten aufatmen. Carolina ist noch ein bisschen dünn, die Welpen kosten die junge Mutter einen Großteil ihrer Energie. Sie macht sich als Mutter auf alle Fälle ganz hervorragend und zieht ihre süßen Kleinen sehr liebevoll und fürsorglich auf. Carolina hat ein sehr unschuldiges und edles Wesen, ist noch misstrauisch gegenüber Fremden und muss erst noch von ihrer neuen Familie erobert werden. Aber bitte nicht im Sturm, sondern mit Ruhe, Geduld und Einfühlungsvermögen. So wird aus dem schüchternen Mädchen mit der Zeit bestimmt ein typisch lustiger Podonco-Clown, voller Vertrauen und Liebe für ihre Familie. Es wird jetzt Zeit, dass Carolina in ein Zuhause mit Verwöhngarantie kommt, wo ihre sanfte Hundeseele geschätzt wird und sich nach und nachvoll entfalten kann. © 2006-2024 by Tierschutzverein Europa e.V. - All rights reserved

About Carolina

What life with Carolina looks like

Carolina is a medium-sized puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Europa in München.

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 Carolina, answered.

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