Juna (Szuzy)

German Shepherd · Female · Adult · 8 years

🐾Juna – a loyal companion for life 🐾 Juna is a friendly Shepherd who bonds closely with her special person and greatly enjoys being near them. She loves being at her people's side – and a tasty snack will of course win her over especially well. Juna is somewhat reserved with strangers at first. She needs time to build trust and to open up to new people. However, anyone who gives her that time and doesn't pressure her will get to know a sweet and loyal dog who can form a strong bond. In some situations, for example when meeting other dogs, Juna may react insecurely. With calm, patience, and confident guidance, she can be well supported and given direction. For Juna, we hope for people who will give her the time she needs to settle in peacefully and who will offer her security and reliability. We are looking for people who are willing to keep working on her trust together with Juna and show her that she can rely on her humans. Juna is subject to a muzzle requirement (Paragraph 3.3). Would you like to meet Juna and give her the chance of a loving home? We look forward to your inquiry. ❤️

🐾Juna – eine treue Begleiterin fürs Leben Juna ist eine freundliche Schäferhündin, die sich eng an ihre Bezugsperson bindet und deren Nähe sehr genießt. Sie ist gerne an der Seite ihrer Menschen – und mit einem leckeren Snack lässt sie sich natürlich besonders gut begeistern.🐾 Bei fremden Menschen zeigt sich Juna zunächst etwas zurückhaltend. Sie braucht Zeit, um Vertrauen zu fassen und sich auf neue Menschen einzulassen. Wer ihr diese Zeit gibt und sie nicht bedrängt, wird jedoch eine liebe und treue Hündin kennenlernen, die eine enge Bindung aufbauen kann. In manchen Situationen, beispielsweise bei Begegnungen mit anderen Hunden, kann Juna unsicher reagieren. Mit Ruhe, Geduld und einer souveränen Begleitung lässt sie sich dabei gut unterstützen und Orientierung geben. Für Juna wünschen wir uns Menschen, die ihr die nötige Zeit geben, in Ruhe anzukommen, und ihr Sicherheit und Verlässlichkeit vermitteln. Menschen, die bereit sind, gemeinsam mit Juna weiter an ihrem Vertrauen zu arbeiten und ihr zeigen, dass sie sich auf ihre Menschen verlassen kann. Für Juna gilt eine Maulkorbpflicht (Paragraph 3.3). Möchten Sie Juna kennenlernen und ihr die Chance auf ein liebevolles Zuhause geben? Dann freuen wir uns auf Ihre Anfrage.❤️

About Juna (Szuzy)

What life with Juna (Szuzy) looks like

Juna (Szuzy) is an adult german shepherd dog waiting at Tierheim Gelsenkirchen in Gelsenkirchen.

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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Juna (Szuzy), answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Juna (Szuzy)?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Gelsenkirchen handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Juna (Szuzy) on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Juna (Szuzy) if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Gelsenkirchen 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Juna (Szuzy) 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 Juna (Szuzy) 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 Gelsenkirchen early rather than rehoming privately; they know Juna (Szuzy) 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.
