Kim

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Senior · 9 years

Kim (born 2017) is a dog with a strong, headstrong personality, and not a dog for just anyone. She is very selective about whom she takes a liking to, whether people or fellow dogs. This is probably also why she is still living at the Wau-Mau-Insel animal shelter. Last December, she even celebrated her two-year anniversary there.

DE·Show original

Kim (*2017) ist eine charakterstarke und eigenwillige Hundepersönlichkeit und kein Hund für Jedermann bzw. Jedefrau. Sie ist sehr wählerisch bei der Vergabe ihrer Sympathien – egal, ob Menschen oder Artgenossen. Das ist vermutlich auch der Grund, warum sie immer noch im Tierheim Wau-Mau-Insel wohnt. Sie hat letzten Dezember sogar schon ihre zweijährige Betriebszugehörigkeit gefeiert.

About Kim

What life with Kim looks like

Kim is a senior mixed breed dog waiting at BMT-Tierschutz (Bund gegen Missbrauch der Tiere e.V.) in Germany.

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. Many dogs and cats leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport, but this varies by shelter, so confirm what is included with the shelter.

Frequently asked

Adopting Kim, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Kim?
Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. BMT-Tierschutz (Bund gegen Missbrauch der Tiere e.V.) handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Kim on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Kim if I live in another country?
Often, but it depends on the shelter and the countries involved. Some rescues place animals abroad and some only adopt out locally, so ask BMT-Tierschutz (Bund gegen Missbrauch der Tiere e.V.) whether they will for Kim, what they require (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 Kim already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
TailHarbor has no vaccination, microchip or sterilization details for Kim. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by BMT-Tierschutz (Bund gegen Missbrauch der Tiere e.V.), so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Kim isn't the right fit?
Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask BMT-Tierschutz (Bund gegen Missbrauch der Tiere e.V.) about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Kim 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.
