Ina

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Background Ina was rescued in April 2026 together with her son Bobby from an abandoned café. After the café closed, the two dogs were left behind and lived for an extended period without adequate care under poor living conditions. Character Ina is a very gentle, warm, and people-oriented female dog. She loves being close to humans and meets men and women with friendliness and openness. She also shows little fear towards strangers; usually she approaches curiously but remains calm and pleasantly reserved. When Ina is stroked, she quickly gains trust and shows her affectionate side. She often approaches people quietly, leans against them, or patiently waits for affection. Sometimes she even requests cuddles gently on her own. Ina is generally balanced, not overly sensitive to changes, and appears not to get overly excited in new situations. She observes people attentively and seems to sense moods well. Her energy level is low, making her an inherently quiet female dog with whom one can spend relaxed time. With her son Bobby, Ina currently lives together without problems. Even when other dogs come near, she does not react overly excited or sensitive but usually remains calm and observes the situation quietly and composedly. A full integration with other dogs has not been thoroughly tested yet, but her past behavior suggests she could also get along well with her own kind. Cat compatible / compatible with cats? ☐ Yes / Yes ☒ No / No ☐ Unknown / unknown Dog compatible / compatible with other dogs? ☒ Yes / Yes ☐ No / No ☐ Unknown / unknown Vaccinated / vaccinated? ☒ Yes / Yes ☐ No / No Specials A laparoscopic ovariectomy was performed on Ina, during which only the ovaries were removed. Since her claws are very long and grown, they are still deformed and need to be monitored further. Additionally, Ina currently has a bit of extra weight and is on a diet. Apart from that, Ina is doing well and is gradually recovering from her past.🐾 For Ina, we wish for a loving home that offers her peace, security, and affection. She fits well with people who are looking for a gentle, relaxed, and affectionate large female dog and who give her the time to physically and emotionally grow.

VorgeschichteIna wurde im April 2026 gemeinsam mit Bobby aus einem verlassenenCafé gerettet. Nach der Schließung des Cafés waren die beiden Hunde dortzurückgelassen worden und lebten über längere Zeit ohne ausreichende Fürsorgeunter schlechten Haltungsbedingungen.CharakterIna ist eine sehr sanfte, warme und menschenbezogene Hündin. Sie liebt es, in derNähe von Menschen zu sein, und begegnet Männern wie Frauen freundlich undoffen. Auch fremden Personen gegenüber zeigt sie kaum Scheu; meist nähert siesich neugierig, bleibt dabei aber ruhig und angenehm zurückhaltend.Wenn Ina gestreichelt wird, fasst sie schnell Vertrauen und zeigt ihre liebevolleSeite. Sie kommt gerne leise auf Menschen zu, lehnt sich an oder wartet geduldigdarauf, Zuwendung zu bekommen. Manchmal fordert sie Streicheleinheiten auchsanft von selbst ein.Ina ist grundsätzlich ausgeglichen, wenig sensibel gegenüber Veränderungen undwirkt auch in neuen Situationen nicht schnell aufgeregt. Sie beobachtet Menschenaufmerksam und scheint Stimmungen gut wahrzunehmen.Ihr Energielevel ist niedrig, weshalb sie eine eher ruhige Hündin ist, mit der man sehrentspannt Zeit verbringen kann.Mit Bobby lebt Ina aktuell problemlos zusammen. Auch wenn andereHunde in ihre Nähe kommen, reagiert sie nicht übermäßig aufgeregt oder sensibel,sondern bleibt meist ruhig und beobachtet die Situation lieber still und gelassen.Eine richtige Zusammenführung mit anderen Hunden wurde bisher noch nichtumfassend getestet, doch ihr bisheriges Verhalten lässt vermuten, dass sie auch mitArtgenossen gut zurechtkommen könnte.Katzenverträglich / compatible with cats?☐ Ja / Yes☐ Nein / No☒ unbekannt / unknownMit anderen Hunden verträglich / compatible with other dogs?☒ Ja / Yes☐ Nein / No☐ unbekannt / unknown.

About Ina

What life with Ina looks like

Ina is a large adult mixed breed dog waiting at German Hands meet Korean Paws e.V. in Ebstorf.

An 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. 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 Ina, answered.

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