Greta

Mixed Breed · Female

Greta is a young mixed breed dog. She was found alone with her sister Alice and brother Casper on the fields and brought to safety. Currently, Greta is still very shy and reserved. The many new impressions and her past make her a bit scared. With patience, calmness and loving attention she will gradually gain trust and discover the world. We wish for Greta an understanding home where she can find time to settle in. Greta is looking forward to finding her forever home. 🐾

Verträglichkeit: Verträglich mit anderen Hunden; Katzen: Nicht bekannt, kann getestet werden. Derzeitiger Aufenthaltsort: Tierheim Hajdúböszörmény (Ungarn) Abgabegrund: Fundhund Greta ist eine junge Mischlingshündin. Gemeinsam mit ihrer Schwester Alice und ihrem Bruder Casper wurde sie allein auf den Feldern gefunden und in Sicherheit gebracht. Zurzeit zeigt sich Greta noch sehr schüchtern und zurückhaltend. Die vielen neuen Eindrücke und ihre bisherige Vergangenheit machen ihr noch etwas Angst. Mit Geduld, Ruhe und liebevoller Zuwendung wird sie jedoch Schritt für Schritt Vertrauen fassen und die Welt entdecken. Für Greta wünschen wir uns ein verständnisvolles Zuhause, in dem man ihr die Zeit gibt, die sie braucht, um anzukommen. Greta freut sich darauf, ihr Für-immer-Zuhause zu finden. 🐾

About Greta

What life with Greta looks like

Greta is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Pföttchenretter mit Herz e.V. in Leichlingen.

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 Greta, answered.

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