Grace

German Shorthaired Pointer · Female · Adult · 5 years

I am Grace, a very loving dog looking for a suitable home. This is me: I'm not only graceful to look at but also nice and affectionate. There's really nothing wrong with me - however, I absolutely can't be left alone. I have big fear of loss and don't want to be without my humans. That will take a lot of training and perseverance, possibly an existing first dog could help if there is sympathy. I would probably also be suitable for committed dog beginners. I have a food allergy, my animal caregivers will advise you on this in detail. Is this maybe the perfect match with us?

DE·Show original

Ich bin Grace eine sehr liebe Hündin auf der Suche nach einem passenden Zuhause. Das bin ich: Ich bin nicht nur anmutig anzusehen, sondern auch nett und zutraulich. An mir gibt es eigentlich nichts auszusetzen – allerdings kann ich absolut noch nicht allein bleiben. Ich habe große Verlustängste und möchte nicht ohne meine Menschen sein. Das wird viel Training und Ausdauer brauchen eventuell könnte da ein schon vorhandener Ersthund bei Sympathie helfen. Auch für engagierte Hundeanfänger wäre ich vermutlich geeignet. Ich habe eine Futtermittelallergie, dazu beraten dich meine Tierpfleger:innen natürlich ausführlich. Ist das mit uns vielleicht das perfekte Match?

About Grace

What life with Grace looks like

Grace is a large adult german shorthaired pointer dog waiting at Tierheim Berlin Falkenberg in Berlin.

An 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 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 Grace, answered.

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