Hope

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 9 years

Hope ist eine Schäferhund-Mix-Hündin. Fremden Menschen begegnet sie zunächst eher zurückhaltend und skeptisch. Gibt man ihr jedoch etwas Zeit und begegnet ihr mit ruhiger, souveräner Führung, taut sie schnell auf und zeigt sich freundlich und zugewandt. Mit anderen Hunden ist Hope leider nicht verträglich. Daher wünschen wir uns für sie ein Zuhause, in dem sie als Einzelhund leben darf, idealerweise in einer eher ländlichen Umgebung, in der sie genügend Ruhe und Abstand zu Artgenossen hat. Hope besitzt ein sehr ausgeprägtes Beutefangverhalten. Aus diesem Grund wird sie nicht in ein Zuhause mit anderen Tieren oder Kindern vermittelt. Da sie bisher keine konsequente Erziehung genießen konnte, braucht sie Menschen, die ihr klare Strukturen, feste Regeln und eine verlässliche Führung geben. Mit Geduld, Verständnis und konsequenter Anleitung kann Hope lernen, sich gut im Alltag zu orientieren. Wir wünschen uns für Hope ein erfahrenes, verantwortungsbewusstes Zuhause, das ihr Sicherheit, klare Führung und die Chance auf einen stabilen Neuanfang gibt.

About Hope

What life with Hope looks like

Hope is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Flensburg in Germany.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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 Hope, answered.

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