Lina -auf Dauerpflegestelle

Belgian Malinois · Female · Senior · 12 years

Lina is an insecure but dominant female dog. She knows exactly what she wants. Lina had a difficult life as a puppy and apparently suffered severe trauma in her first year, often biting. She has become calmer, although her patience can wear thin very quickly. She lives with other dogs and cats in a foster home. Her leg was amputated as a puppy and she has a wheelchair for bad days. Lina needs her familiar surroundings and structures to relax. She decides "it's mine" outside her familiar environment and is then willing to discuss. Lina has major liver problems and therefore receives regular medication. Lina is in a foster home in a district of Alsfeld and is allowed to stay there. That's what I wish.

Über mich Lina ist eine unsichere, aber trotzdem sehr dominante Hündin. Sie weiß mittlerweile genau was sie möchte. Lina hatte bereits als Welpe ein schweres Leben und sie hatte das erste Jahr offenbar schwere Traumata u hat häufig gebissen. Inzwischen ist sie ruhiger geworden, obwohl ihr Geduldsfaden sehr schnell, sehr kurz werden kann! Sie lebt mit anderen Hunden und Katzen auf einer Pflegestelle. Ihr Bein wurde bereits im Welpenalter amputiert und sie besitzt für schlechte Tage einen Rolli. Lina braucht ihre gewohnte Umgebung und Strukturen, dann kann sie entspannen. Sie entscheidet außerhalb ihrer gewohnten Umgebung sehr schnell „gehört mir“ und ist dann auch zu Diskussionen bereit. Lina hat große Probleme mit der Leber und erhält daher regelmäßig Medikamente. Lina befindet sich auf einer Pflegestelle in einem Ortsteil von Alsfeld und darf dort bleiben. Das wünsche ich mir

About Lina -auf Dauerpflegestelle

What life with Lina -auf Dauerpflegestelle looks like

Lina -auf Dauerpflegestelle is a large senior belgian malinois dog waiting at Tierheim Alsfeld 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. Dogs and cats typically leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with an EU pet passport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Lina -auf Dauerpflegestelle, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Lina -auf Dauerpflegestelle?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Alsfeld handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Lina -auf Dauerpflegestelle on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Lina -auf Dauerpflegestelle if I live in another country?: Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Alsfeld 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. Transport is usually a separate cost, so ask for the exact figure before you commit.
Is Lina -auf Dauerpflegestelle 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 -auf Dauerpflegestelle 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 Tierheim Alsfeld early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lina -auf Dauerpflegestelle 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.
