Lassie

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Lassie is a wonderful young female dog who finally wants to explore the world. In new situations, she is initially shy and reserved, but by no means panicky. She needs a little patience to feel secure, but treats are very helpful here. Lassie is as every young dog is—adventurous and active. However, she is not overexcited and also enjoys quiet moments of cuddling. Lassie gets along well with other dogs and could easily be rehomed as a second dog. Understanding children who let her come in peace are no problem. We wish for Lassie a home where she can discover the wonderful world outside of a cage with peace and love. A cat test could still be conducted if interested.

DE·Show original

Lassie ist eine wunderschöne junge Hundedame, die jetzt endlich die Welt entdecken möchte. In neuen Situationen ist sie zunächst schüchtern und zurückhaltend, aber keinesfalls panisch. Sie braucht ein wenig Geduld, um sich sicher zu fühlen, aber Leckerli helfen hier sehr. Lassie ist wie jeder junge Hund unternehmungslustig und aktiv. Sie ist aber nicht überdreht und genießt auch ruhige Momente mit Kuscheln. Lassie versteht sich gut mit anderen Hunden und könnte problemlos als Zweithund vermittelt werden. Verständnisvolle Kinder, die sie in Ruhe ankommen lassen, sind kein Problem. Wir wünschen uns für Lassie ein Zuhause, indem sie mit Ruhe und Liebe die tolle Welt außerhalb eines Zwingers entdecken darf. Ein Katzentest könnte bei Interesse noch durchgeführt werden.

About Lassie

What life with Lassie looks like

Lassie is a medium-sized young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hundehilfe Portugal in Speyer.

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.

Frequently asked

Adopting Lassie, answered.

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