How do I contact the shelter about Lina?

Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. A.C.E. Animal Compassion Europe - Tiere in Not e.V. handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Lina on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.

Can I adopt Lina if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — A.C.E. Animal Compassion Europe - Tiere in Not 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 Lina 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 Lina 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 A.C.E. Animal Compassion Europe - Tiere in Not e.V. early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lina 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.

Lina

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 7 years

Friendly, compatible, a very loving soul Lina was found in a field. The female dog had often been seen there and was repeatedly fed. She must have had an accident, as one day she could no longer walk. An animal rescuer took the female dog and through various ways she then came to us at the animal shelter. Lina initially appeared fearful and bit. She probably had incredible fear that someone would hurt her. The X-ray examination showed a poor result and confirmed the accident. Lina could not get up at all during the first period. With much patience and training, our team in Greece achieved one success after another. Lina can now get up and walk very short distances. She uses her right leg well, but still drags her left leg a bit. Lina will be equipped with a training sock, which should make walking a bit easier for her. She still needs to build up a lot of muscle. Lina is still incontinent, but improvement is already visible. Whether the incontinence will remain is currently difficult to assess. For Lina we are looking for a ground-floor home with a garden. They are all vaccinated, microchipped and have an EU passport. They are checked for Mediterranean diseases according to their age. See information on our homepage. Every dog placed makes room for one of those dogs that have to live in hunger and emaciation.

freundlich, verträglich, ganz liebe Seele Lina wurde auf einem Feld gefunden. Die Hündin wurde dort schon oft gesehen und immer wieder gefüttert. Sie muss einen Unfall gehabt haben, da sie eines Tages nicht mehr laufen konnte. Eine Tierschützerin nahm die Hündin mit und über Umwege kam sie dann zu uns ins Tierheim. Lina zeigte sich anfangs ängstlich und schnappte. Sie hatte vermutlich unglaubliche Angst, dass ihr jemand wehtut. Die Röntgenuntersuchung zeigte keinen guten Befund und bestätigte den Unfall. Lina konnte die erste Zeit überhaupt nicht aufstehen. Mit viel Geduld und Training konnte unser Team in Griechenland einen Erfolg nach dem anderen schaffen. Lina kann mittlerweile aufstehen und sehr kleine Strecken laufen. Ihr rechtes Bein benutzt sie gut, links zieht sie immer noch etwas nach. Lina wird mit einer Trainingssocke ausgestattet, was ihr das laufen etwas einfacher machen soll. Sie muss noch einiges an Muskeln aufbauen. Lina ist noch Inkontinent, aber eine Besserung ist schon zu sehen. Ob die Inkontinenz bleiben wird, ist momentan noch schwer einzuschätzen. Für Lina suchen wir ein ebenerdiges Zuhause mit Garten. sind alle geimpft, gechipt und haben einen EU-Ausweis. Sie werden altersentsprechend auf Mittelmeerkrankheiten gecheckt. Siehe dazu Info auf unserer Homepage. Jeder vermittelte Hunde macht Platz für einen jener Hunde, die hungernd und ausgemergelt ihr Dasein fristen müssen. AUFENTHALTSORT

About Lina

What life with Lina looks like

Lina is a adult mixed breed dog waiting at A.C.E. Animal Compassion Europe - Tiere in Not e.V. in Greece.

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 Greece

Greek shelters often partner with Northern European rescue groups for placements. Animals are sterilized, vaccinated, and chipped before adoption. Fees vary widely depending on whether the shelter is municipal or NGO-run.
