How do I contact the shelter about DIANA?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Hundehilfe Polen handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw DIANA on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt DIANA if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Hundehilfe Polen 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 DIANA 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 DIANA 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 Hundehilfe Polen early rather than rehoming privately; they know DIANA 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.

DIANA

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 8 years

Diana 05742 (POA) – SENIORIN – Female, spayed, born approx. 2018, shoulder height approx. 45 cm, at the shelter since 02/2026 The Pinscher mix Diana lives in a kennel with 3 other very large dogs. Friendly and outgoing, she stands at the front of the kennel and enjoys being petted through the bars. She often pushes between the larger dogs to get some attention. The caretaker says Diana was initially reserved and cautious around strangers, but this has completely changed – as we can see for ourselves. She also walks on a leash, although not well yet, but she goes with it. Diana is able to assert herself against the other large, much younger dogs in the kennel. She is the oldest in the kennel. Our concern is actually her extremely short coat without undercoat. She will have a hard time in the winter in Poland and will definitely get cold. Maybe we can find a good place for her before then.

D IANA 05742 (POA) – SENIORIN – Hündin, kastriert, geb. ca. 2018, Schulterhöhe ca. 45 cm, seit 02/2026 im Tierheim Die Pinschermischlingshündin Diana lebt im Zwinger zusammen mit 3 anderen sehr großen Hunden. Freundlich und aufgeschlossen steht sie vorne am Gitter und genießt die Streicheleinheiten durch uns durchs Gitter hindurch. Immer wieder drängelt sie sich zwischen die Großen, um ein bisschen Aufmerksamkeit abzubekommen. Die Pflegerin erzählt, dass Diana anfangs zurückhaltend und vorsichtig bei fremden Menschen war, dies sich aber inzwischen komplett gelegt hat – wie wir ja selbst sehen können. Sie läuft auch an der Leine, zwar noch nicht gut, aber sie geht mit. Gegenüber den anderen großen, deutlich jüngeren Hunden im Zwinger weiß sich Diana durchzusetzen. Sie ist eben auch die Älteste in dem Zwinger. Unsere Sorge liegt eigentlich bei ihrem extrem kurzen Fell ohne Unterwolle. Sie wird es im Winter richtig schwer haben in Polen und mit Sicherheit frieren. Vielleicht schaffen wir es vorher noch eine gute Stelle für sie zu finden. (09/2026 A)

About DIANA

What life with DIANA looks like

DIANA is a extra-large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hundehilfe Polen in Dierkshausen.

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.
