Floki

Mixed Breed · Female

Floki lived for a very long time on the streets with two other dogs, and was responsible for himself for a long time. Therefore, it's totally okay if Floki takes a bit longer to get used to his new environment, because he is naturally very shy and reserved. Floki avoids trouble and prefers not to draw attention. Floki gets along with other dogs, whether they are female dogs or male dogs, he needs someone who can give him courage and trust, maybe also a dog that already lives in the family. Who has the patience to give? Floki just needs a little time. But we can't blame him for that. There's a lot in Floki!!! A faithful companion, a lifelong friend!

DE·Show original

Floki lebte sehr lange auf der Straße mit zwei anderen Hunden zusammen, war lange selbst verantwortlich für sich. Daher ist es total OK, wenn Floki etwas länger braucht um sich an seine neue Umgebung zu gewöhnen, denn er ist von Haus aus sehr schüchtern und zurückhaltend. Floki geht dem Ärger aus dem Weg und fällt lieber nicht auf. Floki verträgt sich mit anderen Hunden, egal ob Hündin oder Rüde, er braucht jemanden der ihm Mut und Vertrauen gibt, vielleicht auch ein Hund der schon in der Familie lebt. Wer hat Geduld abzugeben? Floki braucht nur etwas Zeit. Das kann man ihm aber nicht verübeln. In Floki steckt Großes!!! Ein Treuer Begleiter, ein lebenslanger Freund!

About Floki

What life with Floki looks like

Floki is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at Pfotenhilfe Sachsen e.V. in Germany.

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 Floki, answered.

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