Forky

Mixed Breed · Male · Puppy · 1 month

Ein Zusammenleben mit gut sozialisierten Artgenossen wäre möglich, jedoch sollten hierbei Größen- und Altersunterschiede berücksichtigt werden. Dazu sollte berücksichtigt werden ,dass es viel Zeit und Training bedeutet einen Welpen groß zu ziehen- man sollte eine gute Welpengruppe besuchen ,damit auch ein Chihuahua als Hund ernst genommen wird. Interessenten bitten wir sich vorab ausgiebig über die Rasse und ihre Anforderungen zu informieren. Chihuahuas sind trotz ihrer geringen Größe keine sogenannten „Taschenhunde“. Auch ein kleiner Hund möchte die Welt entdecken, lernen, beschäftigt und erzogen werden. Die geringe Körpergröße bedeutet nicht, dass sie weniger Bedürfnisse haben oder wie ein Accessoire behandelt werden sollten. Dazu bitten wir Interessenten sich ausgiebig über die Qualzucht Merkmale beim Chihuahua sich zu informieren unter anderem über hervorstehende Augen, offene Fontanelle und eine zu kurze Schnauze, die gesundheitliche Einschränkungen mit sich bringen können. Wichtiger Hinweis zur Terminvereinbarung: Aufgrund des zu erwartenden großen Interesses bitten wir um Verständnis, dass Besichtigungs und Kennenlerntermine ausschließlich telefonisch vereinbart werden können. Anfragen per E-Mail sowie spontane Besuche außerhalb eines vereinbarten Termins sind leider nicht möglich. Wir möchten so sicherstellen, dass wir uns ausreichend Zeit für jeden einzelnen Interessenten und vor allem für das Wohl unserer Welpen nehmen können. Vielen Dank für euer Verständnis!

About Forky

What life with Forky looks like

Forky is a large puppy/kitten mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Flensburg in Germany.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇩🇪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 Forky, answered.

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