How do I contact the shelter about Lotte?

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

Can I adopt Lotte if I live in another country?

Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Berlin Falkenberg 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 Lotte 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 Lotte 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 Berlin Falkenberg early rather than rehoming privately; they know Lotte 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.

Lotte

Labrador Retriever · Female

I am Lotte, a friendly and open female dog with great potential who still needs training and support. I am friendly and open with people, active and playful, but also come to rest well. On the leash, I still pull quite strongly and generally walks are still quite exciting for me. It takes calmness and consistency at the other end of the leash for me to settle with you. I am happy to greet other dogs. I am a dog with great potential, but training is still needed – it just hasn't happened yet. I lack orientation, frustration tolerance, and composure in the outdoors. I wish for an experienced home in a more quiet environment (peripheral areas of the city, Berlin's Speckgürtel, or rural areas). My people should be ready to continue training me and invest time and, if necessary, money in my education and good training. Then I will be a wonderful companion. Stable children in the household should not be a problem; I already know them from before. Can I show you what I am capable of?

Ich bin Lotte eine freundliche und aufgeschlossene Hündin mit viel Potenzial, die noch Erziehung und Rückhalt braucht. Das bin ich: Menschen gegenüber bin ich freundlich und aufgeschlossen. Ich bin aktiv und verspielt, komme drin aber auch gut zur Ruhe. An der Leine ziehe ich noch stark und generell sind Spaziergänge noch ganz schön aufregend für mich. Da braucht es Ruhe und Konsequenz am anderen Ende der Leine, damit ich mich gut auf dich einstellen kann. Fremde Hunde verbelle ich noch ganz gern. Ich bin ein Hund mit viel Potenzial, dafür braucht es aber halt noch Erziehung – das kam bisher einfach zu kurz. Es fehlt mir einfach noch an Orientierung, Frustrationstoleranz und Gelassenheit im Freien. Ich wünsche mir ein erfahrenes Zuhause in eher ruhigerem Umfeld (Stadtrand, Berliner Speckgürtel oder ländlicher). Meine Menschen sollten bereit sein, weiter mit mir zu üben und Zeit sowie ggf auch Geld in meine Erziehung und in gutes Training zu investieren. Dann werde ich eine ganz tolle Begleiterin. Standfeste Kinder im Haushalt sollten kein Problem sein, die kenne ich schon von früher. Darf ich bei dir zeigen, was in mir steckt?

About Lotte

What life with Lotte looks like

Lotte is a large adult labrador retriever dog waiting at Tierheim Berlin Falkenberg in Berlin.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible — a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. 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.
