Katie

Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 9 years

Katie is a charming little girl with huge ears, curious eyes and a bright smile that immediately wins hearts over. She is full of life and a playful, friendly dog who discovers the world every day. Typical for a puppy, Katie is open, curious, eager to learn and enjoys attention and time spent with her humans. She longs for a family that shows her patience, love and security so she can experience how wonderful a safe life as a dog can be. The little mouse dreams of going on adventures, playing and cuddling with her people. Katie would like to attend dog school together with her humans and be appropriately stimulated and exercised through head and nose work such as searching for food bags, search games etc. Katie has her whole life ahead of her and is eagerly waiting for a family that will walk alongside her and not leave her behind - maybe yours?

About Katie

What life with Katie looks like

Katie is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at Tiere in Spanien e.V. in Hamburg.

Senior dogs settle in faster than younger ones. They want a soft bed, predictable meals, and short, sniff-heavy walks rather than runs. Many senior rescues bond deeply within weeks because they understand exactly how good a stable home is. Expect occasional vet visits for joint or dental care.

🇩🇪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 Katie, answered.

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