Unsere Iris ist eine dieser tapferen Seelen, die trotz allem ihre Lebensfreude und ihr liebevolles Wesen bewahrt haben. Iris wurde gemeinsam mit ihren winzigen Welpen in einem Graben mitten auf einem Feld gefunden. Tagelang waren sie dort auf sich allein gestellt, schutzlos der sengenden Sommersonne ausgesetzt. Bei Temperaturen von bis zu 39 Grad kämpfte die kleine Familie ums Überleben. Es war ein kleines Wunder, dass sie diese schrecklichen Bedingungen überstanden haben. Zum Glück wurden Iris und ihre Welpen rechtzeitig entdeckt und in Sicherheit gebracht. Ihre Babys haben inzwischen alle ein liebevolles Zuhause gefunden. Nur ihre Mama wartet noch immer auf ihr eigenes Happy End. Dabei ist Iris eine ganz wundervolle Hündin! Die hübsche kroatische Schäferhund-Mischlingshündin mit dem wunderschönen, lockigen Fell und ihren ausdrucksstarken Augen hat ein unglaublich sanftes und freundliches Wesen. Anfangs kann sie bei fremden Menschen noch etwas zurückhaltend sein. Doch das Eis schmilzt schnell, und dann zeigt Iris, wie viel Liebe in ihr steckt. Sie genießt Streicheleinheiten, liebt es zu kuscheln und sucht die Nähe ihrer Menschen. Iris ist intelligent, aufmerksam und lernt unglaublich schnell. Sie ist aktiv, verspielt und neugierig, ohne dabei übermäßig aufgedreht zu sein. Auch mit anderen Hunden versteht sie sich gut. Das Laufen an der Leine wird mit ihr bereits fleißig geübt. Und eine kleine Besonderheit bringt unsere Iris auch noch mit: Sie hat keine Rute! Das macht sie natürlich kein bisschen weniger bezaubernd. Für Iris wünschen wir uns liebevolle Menschen, die Freude daran haben, gemeinsam mit ihr die Welt zu entdecken, sie geistig und körperlich artgerecht auszulasten und ihr gleichzeitig genügend Ruhe und Geborgenheit zu schenken. Menschen, die verstehen, dass auch eine tapfere Hundemama irgendwann einfach nur ankommen und umsorgt werden möchte. Iris hat ihre Babys durch eine unglaublich schwere Zeit begleitet. Jetzt wünschen wir uns jemanden, der sie auf ihrem Weg in ein glückliches Hundeleben begleitet. Wer schenkt dieser wundervollen Hündin endlich das Zuhause, das sie so sehr verdient? .fusion-body .fusion-button Interesse an einer Adoption?

About Iris

What life with Iris looks like

Iris is a small young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Nordic Strays e.V. in Germany.

A 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. Many dogs and cats leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport, but this varies by shelter, so confirm what is included with the shelter.

Frequently asked

Adopting Iris, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Iris?: Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Nordic Strays 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?: Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask Nordic Strays e.V. whether they will for Iris, what they require (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 Iris already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: Nordic Strays e.V. lists Iris as vaccinated, microchipped and neutered. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Nordic Strays e.V., so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Iris isn't the right fit?: Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Nordic Strays e.V. about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them 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?: 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.
