How do I contact the shelter about gigi?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. HOPE 4 FRIENDS e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw gigi on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt gigi if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — HOPE 4 FRIENDS 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 gigi 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 gigi 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 HOPE 4 FRIENDS e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know gigi 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.

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 9 years

NIL029 June 2021GRIZZY11 December 2022 gigi Breed: mixed breed Born: approx. 2018 Size: approx. 43 cm Temperament: initially reserved, friendly, socially compatible, lovable Origin: found on the street Partner organization: AFECTU Location: Portugal EU pet passport, fully vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped Donation fee: 530 EUR Categories: female dogs, In Portugal, spayed Share0 Description Our gigi is loving, friendly, curious and above all quite smart. And because of this, she initially keeps a little distance from people. After all, you can never be sure... But since the lovely dog lady actually likes us quite a bit, she warms up rather quickly once she realizes she can trust someone. Whether gigi can become friends with small children or cats cannot be predicted. Therefore, it would be best if all other family members only have two legs and are roughly over 14. If you belong to the more patient people, for whom it feels like the sun is rising when they get to experience how a dog becomes more and more what it has always been, namely simply perfect, then write an email to the or fill out the interested person form on our homepage.

NILO29. Juni 2021GRIZZY11. Dezember 2022 GIGI Rasse: Mischling geboren: ca. 2018 Größe: ca. 43 cm Wesen: anfangs zurückhaltend, freundlich, sozialverträglich, liebenswert Herkunft: auf der Straße gefunden Partnerverein: AFECTU Aufenthaltsort: Portugal EU-Heimtierausweis, komplett geimpft, entwurmt, gechipt Auslagengebühr: 530 EUR Kategorien: Hündinnen, In Portugal, Kastriert Share0 Beschreibung Unsere Gigi ist lieb, freundlich, neugierig und vor allem auch ganz schön schlau. Und aus diesem Grund hält sie sich am Anfang Menschen gegenüber erst einmal ein wenig zurück. Schließlich kann man ja nie wissen…Aber da uns die hübsche Hundedame ja eigentlich schon ganz gut findet, taut sie – wenn sie gemerkt hat, dass sie jemandem vertrauen kann – recht schnell auf. Ob aus Gigi und kleinen Kindern oder Katzen Freunde werden können, lässt sich leider nicht vorhersagen. Daher sollten am besten alle weiteren Familienmitglieder lediglich zwei Beine haben und so ungefähr Ü14 sein. Wenn Sie also zu den etwas geduldigeren Menschen gehören, für die es sich anfühlt als würde die Sonne aufgehen, wenn sie erleben dürfen, wie ein Hund mehr und mehr zu dem wird, was er eigentlich immer schon ist, nämlich einfach perfekt, dann schreiben Sie eine mail an die oder füllen Sie den Interessentenbogen auf unserer Homepage aus.

About gigi

What life with gigi looks like

gigi is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at HOPE 4 FRIENDS e.V. in Sulzfeld.

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.
