How do I contact the shelter about Elli Rasse?

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

Can I adopt Elli Rasse if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Franziskus Tierheim Hamburg 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 Elli Rasse 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 Elli Rasse 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 Franziskus Tierheim Hamburg early rather than rehoming privately; they know Elli Rasse 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.

Elli Rasse

Mixed Breed · Unknown

Elli came to us because the personal circumstances in her former home have changed. Initially, Elli is unsettled when meeting strangers and only slowly gets to know them. If there is too much speed in the encounter, she can also snap out of fear. Children should not live in her new home for this reason. However, if one is gentle and gives her a little time to warm up, she clearly enjoys the proximity to humans. She has a bit of a rounded rear and needs to work on her summer figure with light food and plenty of movement piece by piece. Since she enjoys movement, the 8-year-old female dog should be able to achieve this soon. Since Elli reacts strongly to movement stimuli in everyday life, a home in a slightly less bustling neighborhood would be advantageous. She gets along well with fellow animals. If you would like to meet Elli, please come in person during the placement hours at the animal shelter or send a meaningful email to our animal caretakers. This is still important:

Elli kam zu uns, weil sich die persönlichen Umstände in ihrem ehemaligen Zuhause geändert haben.Im Kontakt mit ihr fremden Menschen ist Elli anfangs verunsichert und geht nur langsam auf Tuchfühlung. Ist zu viel Tempo in der Begegnung kann sie auch aus Unsicherheit schnappen. Kinder sollten aus diesem Grund nicht in ihrem neuen Zuhause leben. Ist man jedoch behutsam und gibt ihr ein wenig Zeit zum andocken, genießt sie sichtbar die Nähe zum Menschen. Sie hat ein bissel zu runde Hüften und muss nun mit leichtem Essen und ausreichender Bewegung Stück für Stück an ihrer Sommerfigur arbeiten. Da sie sich jedoch gern bewegt, sollte die 8-jährigen Hündin dies bald schaffen können. Da Elli im Alltag durchaus stark auf Bewegungsreize reagiert, wäre ein Zuhause in etwas weniger rummeligen Stadtteilen von Vorteil. Mit Artgenossen ist sie gut verträglich. Wenn Sie Elli kennenlernen möchten, kommen Sie gern persönlich während der Vermittlungszeiten im Tierheim vorbei oder schreiben Sie eine aussagekräftige E-Mail unter an unsere Tierpflegerinnen.Das wäre noch wichtig:

About Elli Rasse

What life with Elli Rasse looks like

Elli Rasse is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Franziskus Tierheim Hamburg in Hamburg.

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.
