Dea

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 9 years

Wenn man unsere Dea so ansieht, dann wird einem gar nicht bewusst, welch außergewöhnlicher Hund einem gerade begegnet ist. Man sieht lediglich eine mittelgroße Hündin, ein Hund der im Moment zu viel Gewicht mit sich herumträgt, das Fell ist kurz, ein Hund, wie so viele könnte man denken. Wenn man sich aber vor Augen führt, dass diese Hündin trotz all der schlimmen, in einem engen Zwinger verbrachten Jahre ein absolut fröhlicher und menschenbezogener Hund geblieben ist, dann merkt man, welch toller Charakter in ihr steckt. Dea landete im Alter von ca. 3 Monaten im städtischen Tierheim und diesen Ort durfte sie erst nach sieben langen Jahren verlassen. Dea durfte nie spazieren gehen, es gab keine ausgelassenen Momente, in denen sie fröhlich herumtoben durfte. Es gab nur diesen Zwinger, tagein und tagaus. Manche Hunde ziehen sich komplett zurück und geben sich auf, andere fressen aus Langeweile. Dea gehört zu der letzteren Kategorie. So schön dieses Leben unserer Dea jetzt auch erscheinen mag, sie sollte die Chance bekommen, endlich ihre Familie kennenzulernen und ein liebevolles und artgerechtes Zuhause erhalten. Falls Sie dieser treuen und außergewöhnlichen Hündin eine Chance geben möchten, dann melden Sie sich doch bitte bei uns.

About Dea

What life with Dea looks like

Dea is a medium-sized senior mixed breed dog waiting at Rifugio Canalba 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 Dea, answered.

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