How do I contact the shelter about Isy?

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

Can I adopt Isy if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Nürnberg 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 Isy 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 Isy 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 Nürnberg early rather than rehoming privately; they know Isy 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.

Adopt Isy

Pug · Female · Young · 3 years

Isy had to unfortunately go to the animal shelter because allergies have appeared in the family. First and foremost, we would like to point out that Isy is a Mopshund and thus unfortunately a result of a breeding operation that causes suffering. Isy has already undergone a knee operation due to patella luxation, and her other knee is not entirely healthy either. She has a harder time breathing than dogs with a normal nose, and it could be that she will need a respiratory operation at some point. A well-filled savings book should therefore be a must for anyone interested in Isy.. Currently, Isy still receives physiotherapy after her knee operation. Isy is a very loving female dog who knows and likes children. She hears well and, as her breed allows, is temperamentuous and playful. Isy has learned to be alone, although not yet fully. At first, she barks, but she calms down. Isy likes other dogs but is totally over it when it comes to handling them. If another dog lives at home, this must be handled and tolerated. Isy gets along well with cats and small animals. Who has a heart and the right wallet for our Isy?

Isy musste leider ins Tierheim, da in der Familie Allergien aufgetaucht sind. Als erstes müssen und möchten wir darauf hinweisen, dass es sich bei Isy um eine Mopshündin handelt und damit leider um eine Qualzucht. Isy hatte schon eine Knieoperation aufgrund von einer Patella Luxation und auch das andere Knie ist nicht ganz gesund. Sie bekommt viel schwerer Luft als Hunde mit normaler Nase und es kann gut sein, dass ihr irgendwann noch eine Atemwegsoperation bevorsteht. Ein gut gefülltes Sparbuch sollte also ein Muss sein, bei Interesse an Isy. Aktuell bekommt sie nach der Knieoperation immer noch Physiotherapie. Isy ist eine sehr liebe Hündin, kennt und mag Kinder. Sie hört gut, ist soweit es ihre Rasse zulässt temperamentvoll und verspielt. Isy hat das alleine bleiben gelernt, allerdings noch nicht zu 100%. Anfangs bellt sie, beruhigt sich aber. Isy mag andere Hunde, ist aber total drüber im Umgang. Wenn ein anderer Hund daheim wohnt, muss dieser damit umgehen und das aushalten können, mit Katzen und Kleintieren kommt sie gut zurecht. Wer hat ein Herz und den passenden Geldbeutel für unsere Isy?

About Isy

What life with Isy looks like

Isy is a young adult pug dog waiting at Tierheim Nürnberg in Nuremberg.

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.
