Hündin Perla

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 7 years

I am female, neutered, microchipped, and born around 2014. I have been waiting since January 2019 for a new home. I am approximately 30cm tall. My caretakers say about me: Perla is a surrender dog, as it unfortunately did not work out in the originally planned home, not because of Perla. She is, after thawing, a feisty little spring mouse who likes to snuggle and wants to be part of her family's life. She would fit well into a family with loving children, and she would also be comfortable with an active couple without kids. A visit to a nice dog training class wouldn't be a problem, as Perla gets along well with other animals. Even though, if the opposite allows it, she sometimes asserts her tone. This is also shown in her watchfulness; visitors are reported and greeted with joy. One should just make sure that she does not develop into a barker, but since she remains approachable in all situations, we do not see a problem there. When snuggling, she is very gentle, and we also think that other animals can be introduced to Perla well. Being alone works very well in dog society, but individual time for her to adjust is necessary. She is house-trained and knows the box, so that car rides are no problem either. Who would like to start the summer with Perla and show her what the two big parts on her head are for – she will beam with joy when she finally gets to go….

Ich bin weiblich,kastriert,gechipt und circa 2014 geboren. Ich warte seit Januar 2019 auf ein neues Zuhause. Ich bin circa 30cm gross. Das sagen meine Betreuer über mich: Perla ist ein Abgabehund, da es im ursprünglich geplanten Zuhause leider nicht passte, was nicht an Perla lag. Sie ist, nachdem sie aufgetaut ist, eine kecke kleine Springmaus, die gern schmust und am Leben ihrer Familie Anteil haben möchte. Gern kann sie in eine Familie mit liebevollen Kindern, auch bei einem aktiven Ehepaar ohne würde sie sich wohl fühlen. Einem Besuch in einer netten Hundeschule steht nichts entgegen, da Perla sich gut mit Artgenossen versteht. Auch wenn sie, wenn das Gegenüber es zulässt, ab und an den Ton angibt. Das zeigt sich auch in ihrer Wachsamkeit, Besuch wird gemeldet und erfreut begrüsst. Dabei sollte man darauf achten, das sie sich nicht zum Kläffer entwickelt, aber da sie gut ansprechbar bleibt in allen Situationen, sehen wir da kein Problem. Beim Schmusen ist sie sehr sanft, wir denken auch an andere Tiere kann man Perla gut heranführen. Das Allein bleiben funktioniert in Hundegesellschaft sehr gut, einzeln muss man ihr die entsprechende Eingewöhnungszeit zugestehen.Sie ist stubenrein und kennt auch die Box, so das auch das Fahren im Auto kein Problem darstellt. Wer möchte mit Perla in den Sommer starten und ihr noch zeigen wozu die zwei Riesenteile auf ihrem Köpfchen sitzen – sie wird strahlen vor Glück, wenn sie endlich ankommen darf….

About Hündin Perla

What life with Hündin Perla looks like

Hündin Perla is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierheim Schkortitz in Grimma.

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 Hündin Perla, answered.

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