Adopt Charly

Mixed Breed · Male

My name is Charly, I am a 5-year-old, neutered mixed-breed female dog with a shoulder height of 55 cm. From puppyhood, I was confined in a small yard in a shelter in Romania, so I knew nothing when I arrived here recently. A lot of training was done with me, and I made relatively quick progress, so I can now be walked well on a leash. I am very attentive to other dogs, so I would also be good as a second dog. I can be touched and leashed, and although I am anxious, I do not bite or snap. I do enjoy being petted, but not yet. I need patient, ideally dog-experienced people who can give me the time I need. Unfortunately, I suffer from epilepsy, but I am so well regulated with medication that I have not had a seizure in months.

Mein Name ist Charly, ich bin eine 5-jährige, kastrierte Mischlingshündin mit einer Schulterhöhe von 55 cm. Von Welpenalter an war ich in Rumänien in einem Shelter im kleinen Zwinger eingesperrt. Deshalb kannte ich gar nichts, als ich vor einiger Zeit hier ankam. Es wurde viel geübt mit mir und ich habe relativ schnell große Fortschritte gemacht, sodass man gut mit mir Gassi gehen kann. Ich orientiere mich sehr an anderen Hunden, deshalb wäre ich auch gut als 2. Hund geeignet. Man kann mich anfassen und anleinen und obwohl ich ängstlich bin beisse oder schnappe ich nicht. Geniessen kann ich das Streicheln aber noch nicht. Ich brauche geduldige, bestenfalls hundeerfahrene Menschen, die mir die Zeit geben, die ich brauche. Leider leide ich an Epilepsie, ich bin aber so gut mit Tabletten eingestellt, dass ich seit Monaten keinen Anfall mehr hatte.

About Charly

What life with Charly looks like

Charly is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Zuflucht für Tiere im Allgäu in Kempten.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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 Charly, answered.

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