Ice

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 3 years

Ice ist ein fröhlicher, aufgeschlossener und ausgesprochen menschenbezogener Rüde, der die Nähe zu seinen Menschen sehr genießt. Aufmerksamkeit und Streicheleinheiten machen ihm Freude und er ist gerne mittendrin. Dabei zeigt er sich freundlich, ausgeglichen und unkompliziert. Ice ist aktiv und bewegt sich gerne, kann aber ebenso gut zur Ruhe kommen und entspannte Momente genießen. Auch neue Situationen meistert er gelassen. Mit anderen Hunden versteht sich Ice sehr gut und zeigt sich freundlich und sozial. Auch Katzen begegnet er ruhig und verträglich. Er kann daher sowohl als Einzelhund als auch zu bereits vorhandenen Tieren vermittelt werden. An der Leine läuft er zuverlässig und bleibt auch bei Begegnungen mit anderen Hunden freundlich und unaufgeregt. Autofahrten meistert er ruhig, und auch beim Tierarzt lässt er Untersuchungen und Behandlungen entspannt über sich ergehen. Aktuell lebt Ice in einer Pflegestelle und genießt dort Bewegung und den Kontakt zu anderen Hunden. Das längere Alleinbleiben im Haus kennt er bisher noch nicht und sollte deshalb Schritt für Schritt aufgebaut werden. Kinder kennt Ice und begegnet ihnen freundlich, sodass er sich auch als Familienhund eignet. Für Ice wünschen wir uns liebevolle und zuverlässige Menschen, die Freude an gemeinsamen Aktivitäten haben und ihm gleichzeitig einen festen und sicheren Platz schenken. Vielleicht bist du der Mensch, mit dem Ice seine fröhliche Art teilen und endlich dauerhaft dazugehören darf.

About Ice

What life with Ice looks like

Ice is a large young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein House of animals Marfino eV in Jessen (Elster).

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

Frequently asked

Adopting Ice, answered.

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