Davina

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Gender: female neutered: yes Birth: December 2018 Origin: Bulgaria Arrived at our shelter: since January 30, 2022 Shoulder height/weight: 40 cm / 11 kg Breed: mixed breed The little Davina is a delicate soul who has already experienced quite a bit in life. She arrived very shy but has made great progress, although she is not among the bravest. She can now also frolic happily and has become much more open with familiar people. Davina is dog and cat-friendly, but should have a gentle and kind company because she adapts to everything and can be easily dominated. Davina is clean and well-behaved and can stay alone for a few hours. However, she still doesn't walk on a leash, and putting the harness on her causes her quite a bit of stress. As soon as the leash is attached, she performs jumps out of fear.

Geschlecht: weiblich Kastriert: ja Geburt: 12/2018 Herkunft: Bulgarien In Wörrstadt seit: 30.01.2022 Schulterhöhe/Gewicht: 40 cm / 11 Kg Rasse: Mischling Die kleine Davina ist eine zarte Seele, die schon so einiges mitgemacht hat im Leben. Sie kam sehr verschüchtert hier an hat aber inzwischen große Fortschritte gemacht, auch wenn sie nicht zu den Mutigsten gehört. Sie kann jetzt auch mal fröhlich rum tollen und ist auch mit bekannten Menschen schon viel aufgeschlossener geworden. Davina ist Hunde und Katzenverträglich, sollte aber freundliche und sanfte Gesellschaft haben, denn sie fügt sich in alles und lässt sich leicht unterbuttern. Davina ist sauber und ordentlich und kann stundenweise alleine bleiben. Allerdings läuft sie noch nicht an der Leine, alleine das Anziehen des Brustgeschirrs verursacht ihr ziemlichen Stress. Sobald Zug auf die Leine kommt, schlägt sie Saltos vor Angst. Hier ist also noch viel Geduld und Einfühlungsvermögen gefragt und sollte eine

About Davina

What life with Davina looks like

Davina is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutz Wörrstadt in Wörrstadt.

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 Davina, answered.

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