How do I contact the shelter about Lanthi?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierfreunde Patras e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Lanthi on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Lanthi if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierfreunde Patras 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 Lanthi 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 Lanthi 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 Tierfreunde Patras e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lanthi 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.

Lanthi

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 2 years

Lanthi lives on a foster home in Patras / Greece. VIDEOS AVAILABLE !!! female dog/spayed in December 2023. Size: approx. 45 cm. The pretty Lanthi was found by accident by Maria and her colleagues on the Autobahn in Pyrgos. Without a doubt, it wouldn't have taken long for the female dog to be hit by a car. When Lanthi saw the animal welfare workers' car, she ran over immediately and wanted to get in. Lanthi was very hungry and wouldn't stop eating. Her body was emaciated and full of ticks. Of course, the animal welfare workers couldn't bear to leave Lanthi at this dangerous place. On the way to Patras, Lanthi fell asleep from exhaustion. The sweet mouse was taken to a vet clinic, where she received the necessary vaccinations and a Mediterranean test, which came back negative in all areas. Now, Lanthi lives on a foster home in Patras with several dogs and cats. Lanthi is like a little policewoman: ) She wants to be there all the time and likes to control the happenings. She would rather have her people for herself and likes to defend this resource against the other dogs in the Greek foster home. For this reason, she should be rehomed as an individual dog. But beyond that, Lanthi needs consistent people who can establish clear rules at home and meet the female dog with loving upbringing and give her enough time and patience to adjust to her new life. Lanthi is vaccinated, microchipped, and dewormed. Additionally, she brings her own EU pet passport when she flies into the arms of her family.

Lanthi lebt auf einer Pflegestelle in Patras / Griechenland.VIDEOS VORHANDEN !!! Hündin/kastriertgeb. ca.Dezember 2023Grösse : ca. 45 cm Die hübsche Lanthi wurde durch Zufall von Maria und ihren Kollegen auf der Autobahn in Pyrgos gefunden. Mit Sicherheit hätte es nicht mehr lange gedauert und die Hündin wäre angefahren oder sogar überfahren worden. Als Lanthi das Auto der Tierschützer sah, kam sie sofort angerannt und wollte unbedingt in das Auto. Lanthi war sehr hungrig und wollte gar nicht mehr aufhören zu fressen. Ihr Körper war abgemagert und voller Zecken. Natürlich brachten die Tierschützer es nicht übers Herz, Lanthi an diesem gefährlichen Ort zurückzulassen. Auf dem Weg nach Patras schlief Lanthi vor Erschöpfung. Die süße Maus wurde in eine Tierklinik gebracht, wo sie neben den notwendigen Impfungen auch einen Mittelmeertest bekam, der in allen Bereichen negativ ist. Nun lebt Lanthi auf einer Pflegestelle in Patras mit mehreren Hunden und Katzen zusammen. Lanthi ist wie eine kleine Polizistin:) Sie möchte immer und überall dabei sein und kontroliert gerne das Geschehen. Am liebstenie möchte sie ihre Menschen für sich haben und verteidigt gerne diese Ressource gegenüber den anderen Hunden in der griechischen Pflegestelle. Aus diesem Grunde sollte sie besser als Einzelhund vermittelt werden. Aber auch darüber hinaus benötigt Lanthi konsequente Menschen, die klare Spielregeln Zuhause aufstellen können und der Hündin mit liebevoller Erziehung begegnen und ihr auch ausreichend Zeit und Geduld zum Ankommen im neuen Leben geben.Lanthi ist geimpft, gechipt und entwurmt. Außerdem bringt sie ihren eigenen EU-Heimtierausweis mit, wenn sie in die Arme ihrer Familie fliegt.

About Lanthi

What life with Lanthi looks like

Lanthi is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Tierfreunde Patras e.V. in Ratingen.

An young 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.
