Chanel

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Background: Chanel came to the animal shelter on La Gomera together with her mother Noa. Both were given up by their owners after they had to move and could not find a home that allowed pets. The move was not easy for the two of them. While Noa is still quite mistrustful, Chanel has adapted much better to the new situation. She is a loving, friendly, and social female dog who gets along well with other dogs and is gradually showing her gentle and affectionate side towards people. Chanel has that special, loving character that wins hearts instantly. Now she is looking for a family that can give her stability and a permanent home where she can continue to build trust and receive all the affection she deserves.

Vorgeschichte Chanel kam gemeinsam mit ihrer Mutter Noa ins Tierheim auf La Gomera. Beide wurden von ihren Besitzern abgegeben, nachdem diese umziehen mussten und keine Wohnung fanden, in der Haustiere erlaubt sind. Der Umzug war für die beiden nicht einfach. Während Noa noch recht misstrauisch ist, hat sich Chanel deutlich besser an die neue Situation angepasst. Sie ist eine liebe, freundliche und soziale Hündin, die problemlos mit anderen Hunden zusammenlebt und nach und nach ihre sanfte und anhängliche Seite gegenüber Menschen zeigt. Chanel hat diesen besonderen, liebevollen Charakter, der im Nu die Herzen erobert. Jetzt sucht sie eine Familie, die ihr Stabilität und ein endgültiges Zuhause schenkt, in dem sie weiter Vertrauen aufbauen und all die Zuneigung bekommen kann, die sie verdient.

About Chanel

What life with Chanel looks like

Chanel is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Garafia e.V. in Germany.

An young 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Chanel, answered.

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