Esma

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

Die hübsche Esma kommt ursprünglich aus Bulgarien und war leider aus verschiedensten Gründen schon mehrfach im Tierheim. In der Vergangenheit hat sie bis zu Perfektion gelernt, sich durchzuboxen, weshalb wir Menschen suchen, die ihr Verhalten einschätzen können und wissen, wie sie angemessen reagieren müssen. Wenn die Fronten geklärt sind und Esma an ihre Grenzen erinnert wird, gewinnt man eine verspielte, gut gelaunte und freundliche Zeitgenossin, die mit einem durch dick und dünn geht. Auch mit anderen Hunden versteht sie sich gut und ist bestimmt als Zweithund gut geeignet; der bereits in der Familie lebende Hund sollte aber ein stabiler Zeitgenosse sein. Bei uns im Tierheim lebt Esma in einer gemischten Hundegruppe. Wir empfehlen den Besuch einer fähigen Hundeschule, um an Esmas Leinenführigkeit und Grundgehorsam zu arbeiten. Da Esma in ihrem bisherigen Leben gelernt hat, Menschen so zu manipulieren, dass diese genau das tun, was sie für richtig hält, sind souveräne und hundeerfahrene Menschen ein Muss. Möchten Sie Esma ein verantwortungsbewusstes und fürsorgliches Zuhause schenken? Dann schicken Sie gerne Ihre ausgefüllte Selbstauskunft an (Für die Adresse JavaScript anschalten) 17.06.2026 (ma*)

About Esma

What life with Esma looks like

Esma is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hamburger Tierschutzverein in Hamburg.

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 Esma, answered.

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