Gisela

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

A friendly, playful, and sociable female puppy named Gisela came to the shelter in October 2025 as part of a spay/neuter program. She has had a tough life, having survived a distemper infection and likely some scary experiences on the streets. Life on the streets is hard, especially for a young puppy. She has retained some wariness around men and is initially cautious around unfamiliar dogs. However, she quickly forms close bonds and is affectionate with everyone. Gisela particularly loves cuddling. Gisela will grow into a large female dog and still has some growing to do. Her hip was X-rayed and is normal. Gisela is still a small puppy, but she has the genes of a lively guardian. She already barks at anything that seems suspicious, just like a proper guardian dog should. So, some experience with this type of dog is necessary. The typical behaviors of a guardian dog need to be channeled into proper behavior, otherwise the dog takes over and that doesn't always work out. But Gisela is young and is looking forward to learning together. So, she is looking for a good mix of cuddles and consistency. Even though it's hard to resist her cute face, a loyal companion who gives her at least as much love will be rewarded. Who can give Gisela a home and the necessary security? They are all vaccinated, chipped, and have an EU passport. They are checked for age-appropriate Mediterranean diseases. See the information on our website. Each dog placed makes room for one of those dogs who are starving and emaciated.

freundlich, verspielt, verträglich VIDEO Die kleine Gisela kam im Rahmen einer Kastrationsaktion im Oktober 2025 ins Tierheim. Sie hatte in ihrem jungen Leben schon viel hinter sich. Eine Staupeinfektion hat sie überstanden und wahrscheinlich auch den ein oder andern Schrecken auf der Straße. Das Leben auf der Straße ist hart, insbesondere als Welpe. Geblieben ist etwas Zurückhaltung bei Männern. Auch bei fremden Hunden ist sie erst mal vorsichtig. Schließt aber schnell Freundschaft und ist lieb zu allen. Insbesondere liebt Gisela aber Kuscheleinheiten. Gisela wird ein großes Hundemädchen werden und noch ein ganzes Stück wachsen. Ihre Hüfte wurde geröntgt und ist unauffällig. Gisela ist zwar noch ein kleines Hundemädchen, aber in Gisela steckt richtiger ein Herdenschutzhund. Schon jetzt verbellt Gisela alles, was ihr so richtig unheimlich ist. So wie es ein ordentlicher Herdenschutzhund in den Genen hat. Man sollte also ein wenig Erfahrung mit diesem Typ Hund haben. Die typischen Verhaltensweisen eines Herdenschutzhundes müssen in geregelte Bahnen, da ansonsten der Hund das Kommando übernimmt und das haut nicht immer hin. Aber Gisela ist ja noch jung und freut sich darauf gemeinsam zu lernen. Sie sucht also nach einer guten Mischung von Kuscheleinheiten und Konsequenz. Auch wenn es schwer ist diesem süßen Gesicht zu widersprechen. Aber dann bekommt man eine treue Begleiterin, die einem mindestens genauso viel Liebe zurück gibt. Wer mag Gisela ein Zuhause und die nötige Sicherheit schenken? sind alle geimpft, gechipt und haben einen EU-Ausweis. Sie werden altersentsprechend auf Mittelmeerkrankheiten gecheckt. Siehe dazu Info auf unserer Homepage. Jeder vermittelte Hunde macht Platz für einen jener Hunde, die hungernd und ausgemergelt ihr Dasein fristen müssen. AUFENTHALTSORT

About Gisela

What life with Gisela looks like

Gisela is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at A.C.E. Animal Compassion Europe - Tiere in Not e.V. in Greece.

A young 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 Greece

Greek shelters often partner with Northern European rescue groups for placements. Animals are sterilized, vaccinated, and chipped before adoption. Fees vary widely depending on whether the shelter is municipal or NGO-run.

Frequently asked

Adopting Gisela, answered.

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