How do I contact the shelter about Iris?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierfreunde im Fläming e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Iris on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Iris if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierfreunde im Fläming 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 Iris 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 Iris 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 Tierfreunde im Fläming e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Iris and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.

Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?

Iris

Labrador Retriever · Female · Young · 2 years

Iris - A beautiful girl with a heart in the right place 🤎 Iris is a dog girl that you just have to look at. 🤎 Retriever mix, beautiful, friendly, cheerful - and this little charming creature that immediately puts a smile on your face. Iris was seized from poor living conditions together with the veterinary office in Serbia. And yet, she has retained her open and friendly nature. She is social, uncomplicated and just likes to be involved. And her tail? It's actually always in the joy mode. 😂🤎 Iris is young, smart and wants to learn. She needs people who show her lovingly how life works and who want to grow with her. We can imagine her as a lifelong friend and great companion dog. For people who like to be outdoors, do something and want a dog not just "to have", but really to know by their side. Whether long walks, joint activities or just being in the middle of family life - Iris wants to be there. She brings brains and has the best conditions to become a wonderful everyday partner with her people. Of course, Iris is still a young girl and doesn't bring any finished upbringing. That's why we're looking for people who are happy to give her orientation with loving consistency, clear rules and patience. Because a wonderful companion dog doesn't just come from its breed - but from relationship, upbringing and learning together. ❤️ Iris is not a finished dog - but she brings everything with her that a really great companion needs. 🐶 SUMMARY Name: Iris Breed: Retriever mix Size: approx. 50 cm Weight: approx. 15 kg Date of birth: January 1, 2024 (estimated) Sex: female, spayed 🩺 HEALTH STATUS & DEPARTURE ✔ Serbian pet passport (non-EU) ✔ Microchip and fully vaccinated ✔ Rabies and infection protection ✔ Dewormed and treated against parasites ✔ 4D test negative ✔ Departure ready ✔ Legal entry via TRACES NT 💌 INTEREST IN IRIS?

🐶 IRIS – EIN WUNDERSCHÖNES MÄDCHEN MIT HERZ AM RECHTEN FLECK 🤎 Iris ist so ein Hundemädchen, bei dem man einfach hinschauen muss. 🤎 Retriever-Mix, wunderschön, freundlich, fröhlich – und dieses kleine charmante Wesen, das einem sofort ein Lächeln ins Gesicht zaubert. Iris wurde gemeinsam mit dem Veterinäramt in Serbien aus schlechter Haltung beschlagnahmt. Und trotzdem hat sie sich ihre offene und freundliche Art bewahrt. Sie ist sozial, unkompliziert und einfach gerne dabei. Und ihre Rute? Die läuft eigentlich dauerhaft im Freude-Modus. 😂🤎 Iris ist jung, schlau und möchte lernen. Sie braucht Menschen, die ihr liebevoll zeigen, wie das Leben funktioniert, und die Lust haben, gemeinsam mit ihr zu wachsen. Wir können sie uns wunderbar als Freundin fürs Leben und tolle Begleithündin vorstellen. Für Menschen, die gerne draußen sind, etwas unternehmen und einen Hund nicht einfach „haben“, sondern wirklich an ihrer Seite wissen möchten. Ob ausgedehnte Spaziergänge, gemeinsame Unternehmungen oder einfach mittendrin im Familienalltag – Iris möchte dabei sein. Sie bringt Köpfchen mit und hat beste Voraussetzungen, gemeinsam mit ihren Menschen zu einer wunderbaren Alltagspartnerin zu werden. Natürlich ist Iris noch eine junge Hündin und bringt keine fertige Erziehung mit. Wir suchen deshalb Menschen, die Freude daran haben, ihr mit liebevoller Konsequenz, klaren Regeln und Geduld Orientierung zu geben. Denn ein wunderbarer Begleithund entsteht nicht einfach durch seine Rasse – sondern durch Beziehung, Erziehung und gemeinsames Lernen. ❤️ Iris ist kein fertiger Hund – aber sie bringt alles mit, was eine richtig tolle Begleiterin braucht. 🐶 STECKBRIEF Name: Iris Rasse: Retriever-Mischling Größe: ca. 50 cm Gewicht: ca. 15 kg Geburtsdatum: 01.01.2024 (geschätzt) Geschlecht: weiblich, kastriert 🩺 GESUNDHEITSSTATUS & AUSREISE ✔ Serbischer Heimtierausweis (Nicht-EU) ✔ Gechippt und vollständig geimpft ✔ Tollwut- und Infektionsschutz ✔ Entwurmt und gegen Parasiten behandelt ✔ 4D-Test negativ ✔ Ausreisefertig ✔ Legale Einreise über TRACES NT 💌 INTERESSE AN IRIS? Wenn ihr euch Iris als eure Begleiterin vorstellen könnt, freuen wir uns auf eure aussagekräftige Anfrage. Erzählt uns gerne etwas über eure Lebenssituation, eure Hundeerfahrung und warum gerade Iris zu euch passen könnte. 📩 🌐 www.medaev.de Bitte habt Verständnis, dass wir nur Anfragen beantworten können, aus denen wir bereits etwas über euch und euer Zuhause erfahren. Nach positiver Vorkontrolle und Abschluss des Schutzvertrages mit Schutzgebühr reist Iris zu 100 % legal und transparent über TRACES NT in die EU.

About Iris

What life with Iris looks like

Iris is a young adult labrador retriever dog waiting at Tierfreunde im Fläming e.V. in Germany.

An 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. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.
