Gitana

Mixed Breed · Female

A mixed breed, maybe a bit Boxer or Pitbull? It doesn't matter, because Gitana is a wonderful female dog! She gets along with all the dogs and cats, and children are welcome too. Her foster mom says she is a very, very loving female dog who enjoys cuddles and every affection. Gitanas previous life was anything but loving. The police rescued her from her family, where she was not well-treated, she was actually maltreated!! Now she lives in a foster home and is settling in well. She walks nicely on a leash and masters city life with panache. When Gitana was neutered, a milk duct was removed, but everything is in order. All that's missing is a little bit of luck, her own home!!

DE·Show original

Ein Mischling, vielleicht ein bisschen Boxer oder Pittbull? Es ist völlig egal, denn Gitana ist eine wunderbare Hündin! Sie versteht sich mit allen Hunden und Katzen, auch Kinder sind herzlich willkommen. Ihre Pflegemama sagt, sie ist eine sehr sehr liebe Hündin, genießt die Streicheleinheiten und jede liebevolle Zuwendung. Gitanas bisheriges Leben war alles andere als liebevoll. Die Polizei rettete sie vor ihrer Familie. Dort wurde sie nicht gut behandelt, sie wurde regelrecht malträtiert!! Jetzt lebt sie auf einer Pflegestelle und ordnet sich gut ein. Sie läuft gut an der Leine und meistert das Stadtleben mit Bravour. Als Gitana kastriert wurde, entfernte man ein Milchleiste, aber es ist alles in Ordnung. Es fehlt nur noch ein kleines Stück Glück, ihr eigenes zu Hause!!

About Gitana

What life with Gitana looks like

Gitana is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Pfotenhilfe Sachsen e.V. in Germany.

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 Gitana, answered.

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