Dena

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 6 years

The intelligent lady is obedient, loves going for car rides, and can also be left alone for a while. She is compatible with fellow animals, knows cats, and children aged six and up. Since she is well-leash-trained, even beginners shouldn’t have any problems with this wonderful girl. Gets along with other dogs.

DE·Show original

Dena ist eine zauberhafte Hündin mit einem liebenswerten, genügsamen Wesen. Sie sucht geradezu den Bezug zu ihren Menschen und dankt es durch ihre ruhige und besonnene Art. Die intelligente Lady ist folgsam, fährt sehr gerne Auto und kann auch mal alleine bleiben. Sie ist verträglich mit Artgenossen, kennt Katzen und Kinder ab 6 Jahren. Da sie gut leinenführig ist, dürften auch Anfänger mit diesem tollen Mädel kein Problem haben.

About Dena

What life with Dena looks like

Dena is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierhilfe Franken e.V. in Lauf.

An 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 Dena, answered.

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