Frida

Podenco · Female · Young · 2 years

Frida was rescued from a euthanasia station 2 years ago and brought to Germany. Now that her family is moving at the end of the month, she is waiting for a new home. She is very compatible with her own kind, but unfortunately, she has a strong hunting instinct and therefore does not get along with cats. Children are no problem. In her home, she is calm and balanced, loves long, extensive walks and cuddling. Her new owners should definitely have experience with dogs, ideally they would have had a Podenco before.

DE·Show original

Frida wurde vor 2 Jahren vor der Tötungsstation bewahrt und nach Deutschland mit genommen. Nachdem jetzt ende des Monates ihre Familie umzieht , wartet sie nun auf ein neues Zuhause. Sehr verträglich mit ihren Artgenossen, aber leider mag sie Rassebedingt keine Katzen, da sie Jagdlich sehr motiviert ist. Kinder sind kein Problem. In Ihrem Zuhause ist sie ruhig und ausgeglichen, liebt lange ausgiebige Spaziergänge und Kuscheleinheiten. Ihre neuen Besitzer sollten auf alle Fälle Hundeerfahrung mitbringen am besten wäre sie hätten schon mal einen Podenco gehabt.

About Frida

What life with Frida looks like

Frida is a young adult podenco dog waiting at Tierheim Gelting in Geretsried.

A 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Frida, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Frida?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Gelting handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Frida on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Frida if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Gelting 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Frida 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 Frida 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 Gelting early rather than rehoming privately; they know Frida 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.
