Adopt Ivy

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 4 years

Ivy – colorful paws power and a mission: becoming your best friend → Breed: mixed breed → Gender: female → Born: 02/2022 → Size / Weight: 49 cm / 20 kg → Neutered: yes → Vaccinated: yes → Identification: Chip → Compatible with: male dogs and female dogs → Incompatible with: N/A → Sponsorships possible: yes Description Here comes Ivy – young, charming, beautiful, and ready to win hearts at first sight! Her shiny, short, tri-colored coat makes her a real beauty – a puppy that you can't help but look at and immediately take to heart. Ivy is relaxed and balanced, not a whirlwind, but curious and full of joy for play, fun, and small adventures. Of course, she brings the typical talents of a young, active dog: She wants to run, sniff, work with her head, and accompany her people everywhere – whether on a walk in nature or relaxing on the sofa. For Ivy to be truly happy, she is looking for people who enjoy exploring the world together with her and showing her how life “as a family dog” works. She still needs loving upbringing, a bit of patience, and clear rules – in return, she will shower you with lots of cheerfulness, enthusiasm, and loyal dog love. Ivy loves being in the action and is the first to join in any game or fun session. But when the day draws to a close, she also enjoys simply being cozy with her people. In short:

Ivy – bunte Pfotenpower und eine Mission: deine beste Freundin werden → Rasse: Mischling → Geschlecht: weiblich→ Geboren: 02/2022 → Grösse / Gewicht: 49 cm / 20 kg→ Kastriert: ja→ Geimpft: ja→ Kennzeichnung: Chip→ Verträglich mit: Rüden und Hündinnen→ Unverträglich mit: k.A.→ Patenschaften möglich: ja Beschreibung Hier kommt Ivy – jung, charmant, wunderschön und bereit die Herzen im Sturm zu erobern! Ihr glänzendes, kurzes dreifarbiges Fell macht sie zu einer echten Schönheit – ein Hundemädchen, das man einfach anschauen und sofort ins Herz schließen möchte. Ivy ist entspannt und ausgeglichen, kein Wirbelwind, aber neugierig und voller Freude an Spiel, Spaß und kleinen Abenteuern. Natürlich bringt sie die typischen Talente eines jungen, aktiven Hundes mit: Sie möchte laufen, schnuppern, mit dem Köpfchen arbeiten und ihre Menschen überallhin begleiten – ob zum Spaziergang in die Natur oder zum Chillen auf dem Sofa. Damit Ivy so richtig glücklich wird, sucht sie Menschen, die Lust haben, gemeinsam mit ihr die Welt zu erkunden und ihr zeigen, wie das Leben „als Familienhund“ funktioniert. Sie braucht noch liebevolle Erziehung, ein bisschen Geduld und klare Regeln – dafür schenkt sie jede Menge Fröhlichkeit, Begeisterung und treue Hundeliebe zurück. Ivy liebt es Action zu haben, und ist die Erste, die bei einer Spiel- oder Spaßrunde dabei ist. Aber wenn der Tag sich dem Ende neigt, findet sie es genauso schön, einfach gemütlich bei ihren Menschen zu sein. Kurz gesagt: Sie ist die

About Ivy

What life with Ivy looks like

Ivy is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierschutzverein Franz von Assisi e.V. in Germany.

An 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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Ivy, answered.

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