Chispi

Podenco · Female · Senior · 12 years

Chispi - a loving older dog lady Our gentle Podenco senior, Chispi, is quiet, gentle, and very easygoing. She behaves unobtrusively and calmly in the apartment and could therefore even be well-suited as an office dog. She loves snuggling with her people on the sofa. This lively female dog loves walks, and also enjoys longer ones occasionally. She can easily walk for up to two hours. However, she doesn't need this every day anymore. Chispi gets along very well with other dogs, whether male or female. She is not jealous and avoids possible conflicts. She walks perfectly on a loose leash and calmly accepts the harness. She is housebroken and sleeps through the night. Chispi would prefer cuddle time all to herself, but another dog in the household would not be a problem. As a vigorous senior, she would feel especially comfortable with elderly people, but we can also imagine a home with calm, understanding children for her. Chispi is a true heart dog - perhaps she is exactly what is missing in your life. Recently, Chispi was thoroughly checked by the veterinarian, and her teeth were also cleaned. Equipped with this radiant Hollywood smile, she is now looking for her final home. Here goes Chispi's video Here goes Chispi's 2nd video

Chispi – eine liebevolle ältere Hundedame Unsere zarte Podenco-Seniorin Chispi ist ruhig, sanft und angenehm unkompliziert. In der Wohnung verhält sie sich unauffällig und entspannt und könnte sich daher sogar gut als Bürohund eignen. Sie liebt es mit ihren Menschen auf dem Sofa zu kuscheln. Die rüstige Hündin liebt Spaziergänge, gerne auch mal etwas länger. Bis zu zwei Stunden läuft sie locker mit. Das muss sie in ihrem Alter aber auch nicht mehr täglich haben. Mit anderen Hunden – egal ob Rüde oder Hündin – versteht sie sich bestens. Chispi ist nicht eifersüchtig und geht möglichen Konflikten lieber aus dem Weg. Sie läuft beim Spaziergang vorbildlich an lockerer Leine und lässt sich Geschirr ganz gelassen anziehen. Sie ist stubenrein und schläft nachts durch. Die Kuschelzeiten würde sie am liebsten für sich alleine haben. Aber auch ein weiterer Hund im Haushalt wäre kein Problem. Als rüstige Seniorin würde sie sich besonders bei älteren Menschen wohlfühlen, aber auch ein Zuhause bei ruhigen, verständnisvollen Kindern können wir uns gut für sie vorstellen. Chispi ist ein echter Herzenshund – vielleicht fehlt genau sie noch in Ihrem Leben. Kürzlich wurde Chispi vom Tierarzt rundum gecheckt und auch die Zähne wurden frisch gereinigt. Ausgestattet mit diesem strahlenden Hollywood-Lächeln macht sie sich jetzt auf die Suche nach ihrem endgültigen Zuhause. Hier gehts zu Chispis Video Hier gehts zu Chispis 2.Video

About Chispi

What life with Chispi looks like

Chispi is a senior podenco dog waiting at SALVA Hundehilfe e.V. in Germany.

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 Chispi, answered.

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