Felicita

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 3 years

Felicita was abandoned as a tiny puppy in icy cold and had only a slim chance of survival. Luckily, she was taken into our care and is now waiting for a loving home. In the dog group, Felicita is friendly and sociable, avoids conflicts, and always communicates appropriately with her fellow dogs. She is a calm and well-balanced female dog who enjoys being petted but is never pushy. In new situations she may be a bit reserved at first, but she responds well to guidance. With confident, calm leadership she takes on new challenges and orients herself well to people. She accepts a harness or leash without any trouble and already walks well with appropriate support. Her leash manners still need some work, but with the right approach she will continue to develop. A visit to a suitable dog training school could also help her further, and we are happy to offer recommendations. For Felicita, we are looking for people who can give her direction with calm and confidence and introduce her to new situations at her own pace. If you can imagine giving Felicita a loving home, we look forward to your inquiry. After a positive pre-adoption check and for a protection fee of 495 euros, she can start her new life vaccinated, dewormed, and microchipped.

DE·Show original

Felicita wurde als kleiner Welpe in eisiger Kälte ausgesetzt und hatte nur geringe Überlebenschancen. Zum Glück konnte sie in unsere Obhut kommen und wartet nun auf ein liebevolles Zuhause. In der Hundegruppe zeigt sich Felicita freundlich und sozial, geht Konflikten aus dem Weg und kommuniziert stets angemessen mit ihren Artgenossen. Sie ist eine ruhige und ausgeglichene Hündin, die Streicheleinheiten genießt, aber nicht aufdringlich ist. In neuen Situationen kann sie anfangs etwas zurückhaltend sein, lässt sich aber gut anleiten. Mit souveräner und ruhiger Anleitung nimmt sie neue Herausforderungen an und orientiert sich gut am Menschen. Sie lässt sich problemlos ein Geschirr oder eine Leine anlegen und läuft mit entsprechender Unterstützung schon gut mit. An der Leinenführigkeit noch gearbeitet werden, aber mit der richtigen Herangehensweise wird sie sich weiterentwickeln. Ein Besuch in einer geeigneten Hundeschule könnte ihr dabei zusätzlich helfen – hier geben wir gerne Empfehlungen. Für Felicita suchen wir Menschen, die ihr mit Ruhe und Souveränität Orientierung geben und sie in ihrem Tempo an neue Situationen heranführen. Wenn Sie sich vorstellen können, Felicita ein liebevolles Zuhause zu schenken, freuen wir uns auf Ihre Anfrage. Sie kann nach positiver Vorkontrolle, gegen eine Schutzgebühr von 495 Euro, geimpft, entwurmt und gechippt in ihr neues Leben starten.

About Felicita

What life with Felicita looks like

Felicita is a small young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein SpecialDogs e.V. in Germany.

A young 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Felicita, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Felicita?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierschutzverein SpecialDogs e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Felicita on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Felicita if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierschutzverein SpecialDogs 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Felicita 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 Felicita 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 Tierschutzverein SpecialDogs e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Felicita 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.
