How do I contact the shelter about Finja?

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

Can I adopt Finja if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Menschen für Tiere 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 Finja 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 Finja 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 Menschen für Tiere early rather than rehoming privately; they know Finja 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.

Finja

Mixed Breed · Female

Finja 05/2021 | female Hello, I am Finja. Together with my sister Xena, I came to the shelter back then. Unfortunately, I had to say goodbye to her not long ago. That changed my life, but I have learned to go my own way. I am a friendly, outgoing female dog and get along well with both people and other dogs. I still love going for walks and I am happy to be included. At the same time, I no longer need an action-packed life. Currently, I am in treatment due to problems with my hip and spine. Therefore, I am looking for people who understand that I am physically limited. Very long hikes or many stairs will no longer be for me. An apartment on an even floor or an elevator would be ideal for me. More important than big adventures are shared time, loving people, and a daily routine where I can feel comfortable. I wish for a quiet home where I can still enjoy nice walks and simply belong. If you are looking for a friendly companion who still likes to participate in life despite her limitations, then I am looking forward to getting to know you.

Finja 05/2021 | weiblich Hallo, ich bin Finja.Zusammen mit meiner Schwester Xena kam ich damals auf den Schlatthof. Leider musste ich inzwischen Abschied von ihr nehmen. Das hat mein Leben verändert, aber ich habe gelernt, meinen eigenen Weg zu gehen. Ich bin eine freundliche, aufgeschlossene Hündin und komme sowohl mit Menschen als auch mit anderen Hunden gut zurecht. Spaziergänge mag ich nach wie vor sehr und ich freue mich, wenn ich dabei sein darf. Gleichzeitig brauche ich heute kein actionreiches Leben mehr. Aktuell bin ich wegen Problemen mit meiner Hüfte und Wirbelsäule in Behandlung. Deshalb suche ich Menschen, die verstehen, dass ich körperlich etwas eingeschränkt bin. Sehr lange Wanderungen oder viele Treppen werden nichts mehr für mich sein. Ein ebenerdiges Zuhause oder ein Aufzug wären für mich deshalb ideal. Viel wichtiger als große Abenteuer sind für mich inzwischen gemeinsame Zeit, liebevolle Menschen und ein Alltag, in dem ich mich wohlfühlen darf. Ich wünsche mir ein ruhiges Zuhause, in dem ich noch schöne Spaziergänge genießen kann und einfach dazugehören darf. Wenn du eine freundliche Begleiterin suchst, die trotz ihrer Einschränkungen noch gerne am Leben teilnimmt, dann freue ich mich darauf, dich kennenzulernen.

About Finja

What life with Finja looks like

Finja is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Menschen für Tiere in Oberndorf a.N..

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.
