Gigi

Mixed Breed · Female

Gigi and her brother were able to move from a killing station on the Ukrainian border to our partner animal shelter. The two came from the street, perhaps they were abandoned there, perhaps they had a home and were no longer wanted. Unfortunately, we do not know. But Gigi is very sweet and friendly with us humans, she also gets along well with the other dogs. Gigi is looking for a home with people who already have experience with dogs, live quietly and show her everything a dog needs to know. Because Gigi has not yet experienced much.

Gigi und ihr Bruder konnten aus einer Tötung an der ukrainischen Grenze in unser Partnertierheim ziehen. Die beiden kamen von der Straße, vielleicht wurden sie dort ausgesetzt, vielleicht hatten sie ein Zuhause und waren nicht mehr erwünscht. Leider wissen wir es nicht. Aber Gigi ist sehr lieb und freundlich mit uns Menschen, auch mit den anderen Hunden kommt sie gut zurecht. Gigi sucht ein Zuhause mit Menschen, die schon Erfahrung mit Hunden haben, ruhig leben und ihr alles zeigen, was ein Hund wissen muss. Denn Gigi wird bisher noch nicht sehr viel kennenglernt haben.

About Gigi

What life with Gigi looks like

Gigi is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Herz für Ungarnhunde e.V. in Nörten-Hardenberg.

An 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. 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 Gigi, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Gigi?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Herz für Ungarnhunde 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 — Herz für Ungarnhunde 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 Herz für Ungarnhunde 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.
