Karli

Dachshund · Male · Adult · 4 years

Karli, a four-year-old Kaninchendackel, is looking for a new loving home. Due to his past, Karli initially approaches strangers with slight skepticism. Once he has gained trust, the slender Minidackel becomes very attached to his caregiver, seeking a lot of closeness and protection. Karli is not suitable for a household with children. He needs a quiet environment with dog-experienced people who can provide him with the necessary security in everyday life through confident leadership. Breed: Kaninchendackel Born: 2022 Sex: male, neutered Overview: Karli September 18th, 2026Bettina Mittler

Karli Der vierjährige Kaninchendackel Karli sucht ein neues, liebevolles Zuhause. Aufgrund seiner Vergangenheit begegnet Karli fremden Personen anfangs mit leichter Skepsis. Hat er jedoch Vertrauen gefasst, bindet sich der zierliche Minidackel sehr stark an seine Bezugsperson, sucht viel Nähe und Schutz. Für einen Haushalt mit Kindern ist Karli nicht geeignet. Er braucht ein ruhiges Umfeld bei hundeerfahrenen Menschen, die ihm durch souveräne Führung die nötige Sicherheit im Alltag geben.

About Karli

What life with Karli looks like

Karli is a adult dachshund dog waiting at Tierheim Passau in Passau.

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 Karli, answered.

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