How do I contact the shelter about Fizzy?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Free Dogs - Vergessene Tiere in Not e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Fizzy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Fizzy if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Free Dogs - Vergessene Tiere in Not 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. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.

Is Fizzy 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 Fizzy 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 Free Dogs - Vergessene Tiere in Not e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Fizzy 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.

Fizzy

Chihuahua · Female · Senior · 10 years

Fizzy – The little Chihuahua mix lady with a big love for dogs is looking for her forever home with a garden and doggy companion! Our charming Fizzy was born in August 2025 and at about 27 cm and 4.8 kg, she is a petite but incredibly lively little girl! The spayed Chihuahua mix lady is looking for a loving home where she can be around her humans and especially her fellow dogs. What makes Fizzy so special: Loves all other dogs – plays for her life with her fellow dogs Watches a lot from other dogs – a little learning artist who benefits from her dog friends Loves the garden above all – digs in the sandbox, dashes through the grass or drifts in the sun Enjoys the evening cuddles on the sofa – and also likes to lie on her humans' lap Already knows a bit about harness and leash – makes good progress in quiet areas Important to know – her little quirk: Fizzy absolutely does not like being lifted or held. Out of fear, she can then pee or try to snap. That's not bad behavior, but pure stress for the little mouse. People who respect her boundaries and give her security will be rewarded with a loving companion.

Unsere bezaubernde Fizzy erblickte im August 2025 das Licht der Welt und ist mit ihren circa 27 cm und 4,8 kg eine zierliche, aber unglaublich lebensfrohe kleine Hündin! Die kastrierte Chihuahua-Mix-Dame sucht ein liebevolles Zuhause, in dem sie ihre Menschen und vor allem ihre Artgenossen um sich haben darf. Das macht Fizzy so besonders: Liebt alle anderen Hunden – spielt für ihr Leben gerne mit ihren Artgenossen Schaut sich unheimlich viel von anderen Hunden ab – eine kleine Lernkünstlerin, die von ihren Hundefreunden profitiert Liebt den Garten über alles – buddelt im Sandkasten, flitzt durchs Gras oder döst in der Sonne Genießt das abendliche Kuscheln auf dem Sofa – und liegt dann auch gerne auf dem Schoß ihrer Menschen Kennt bereits ein bisschen Geschirr und Leine – in ruhigen Gegenden macht sie gute Fortschritte Wichtig zu wissen – ihre kleine Eigenheit: Fizzy mag es überhaupt nicht, hochgehoben oder festgehalten zu werden. Aus Angst kann sie dann pinkeln oder versuchen zu schnappen. Das ist kein böses Verhalten, sondern purer Stress für die kleine Maus. Menschen, die ihre Grenzen respektieren und ihr Sicherheit geben, werden mit einer liebevollen Begleiterin belohnt.

About Fizzy

What life with Fizzy looks like

Fizzy is a small senior chihuahua dog waiting at Free Dogs - Vergessene Tiere in Not e.V. in Großefehn.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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.
