Ficha

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Ficha hasn't quite unpacked her suitcases yet. She still carries a bit of mistrust towards humans. But that will fade in the coming weeks. We are sure that Ficha is a very feisty and witty female dog, because she is the clown of the group that arrived with us on May 16th. Give her a little more time to reveal a more precise assessment of her character.

DE·Show original

Ficha hat ihre Köfferchen noch nicht ganz ausgepackt. Ein bisschen Misstrauen uns Menschen gegenüber trägt sie noch mit sich. Aber auch das wird sich in den nächsten Wochen noch legen. Wir sind uns sicher, dass in Ficha eine ganz kecke und witzige Hündin steckt, denn unbeobachtet ist sie der Clown der Truppe, die am 16. Mai zu uns gereist ist. Geben wir ihr noch etwas Zeit, um eine genauere Einschätzung ihres Charakters abgeben zu können.

About Ficha

What life with Ficha looks like

Ficha is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Mayen in Mayen.

An 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. 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 Ficha, answered.

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