Heidi

Female · Young · 1 year

Heidi Heidi wurde als Welpe von uns vermittelt, aber nach einigen Monaten wieder ins Tierheim zurückgegeben. Heidi kann nicht alleine bleiben und zerstört viele Sachen – mittlerweile sogar dann, wenn ihre Menschen dabei waren. Da muss definitiv einiges daran gearbeitet werden. Heidi muss auf jeden Fall viel Ruhe und Frustrationstoleranz lernen.Mit Menschen ist sie äußerst nett und andere Hunde sind auch kein Problem. Heidi sucht eine Familie, in der nach Möglichkeit schon ein erwachsener Hund oder mehrere erwachsene Hunde vorhanden sind. Das Alleinebleiben sollte von Anfang an in kleinen Schritten, aber kontinuierlich aufgebaut werden. Den Besuch einer Hundeschule würden wir sehr begrüßen, damit Heidi auch mental ausgelastet werden kann. Bei Interesse an einem unserer Hunde schreiben Sie bitte eine Mail an und teilen Sie dabei gleich ein paar Sachen mit, die für eine Hundevermittlung interessant sind: Erfahrungen mit Hunden; Wohnsituation; sind Kinder und/oder andere Tiere im Haushalt; wie lange muss der Hund tagsüber alleine bleiben. Bitte geben Sie für Rückfragen eine Telefonnummer an.

About Heidi

What life with Heidi looks like

Heidi is a young adult dog waiting at Ria-Nickel-Tierheim Homburg in Germany.

A young 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Heidi, answered.

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