Louis T

Mixed Breed · Female · Young · 1 year

Lois – Gentle soul seeks her happiness 🐾There are dogs that don't loudly ask for attention. They quietly slip into your heart – and stay there. Lois is just such a dog.The "mini-shepherd" was born on October 1, 2025 and came to our shelter with her brother Clark from Füzesabony. After two months on our waiting list she finally got to travel here. During that time she received loving care, full vaccinations, spaying/neutering, and a negative heartworm test.When Lois arrived, she was initially reserved and preferred to observe everything from a safe distance. But day by day she becomes bolder. She now happily wags her tail, enjoys petting, and begins to curiously discover her new world.At 38 cm shoulder height and 14.6 kg, Lois is a petite dog with an especially gentle nature. She cautiously considers new situations at first, but once she has gained trust, she shows her loving, affectionate side. She likes to orient herself by her brother Clark, who gives her security.We wish for Lois a quiet and loving home with people who give her the time to arrive in her own pace. She doesn't need big adventures – she just seeks people where she can feel safe and finally arrive.Of course it would be wonderful if Lois and Clark could start their new life together. But we also know that it is rarely possible to find a suitable home for two dogs at the same time. Therefore Lois may also be placed alone if she finds people who show her with patience and love how beautiful life can be.Who will give this gentle little dog the home she has waited so long for? We are happy to answer your questions.

🐾 Lois – Sanfte Seele sucht ihr Glück 🐾Es gibt Hunde, die nicht laut um Aufmerksamkeit bitten. Sie schleichen sich ganz leise ins Herz – und bleiben dort. Lois ist genau so eine Hündin.Die "Mini-Schäferhündin" wurde am 01.10.2025 geboren und kam gemeinsam mit ihrem Bruder Clark aus Füzesabony in unser Tierheim. Nach zwei Monaten auf unserer Warteliste durfte sie endlich zu uns reisen. In dieser Zeit wurde sie liebevoll versorgt, vollständig geimpft, kastriert und negativ auf Herzwürmer getestet.Als Lois ankam, war sie zunächst zurückhaltend und beobachtete alles lieber aus sicherer Entfernung. Doch Tag für Tag wird sie mutiger. Mittlerweile wedelt sie fröhlich mit dem Schwanz, genießt Streicheleinheiten und beginnt, ihre neue Welt neugierig zu entdecken.Mit ihren 38 cm Schulterhöhe und 14,6 kg ist Lois eine zierliche Hündin mit einem besonders sanften Wesen. Neue Situationen betrachtet sie zunächst vorsichtig, doch wenn sie Vertrauen gefasst hat, zeigt sie ihre liebevolle, verschmuste Seite. Dabei orientiert sie sich gerne an ihrem Bruder Clark, der ihr Sicherheit gibt.Für Lois wünschen wir uns ein ruhiges und liebevolles Zuhause bei Menschen, die ihr die Zeit geben, in ihrem eigenen Tempo anzukommen. Sie braucht keine großen Abenteuer – sie sucht einfach Menschen, bei denen sie sich sicher fühlen darf und endlich ankommen kann.Natürlich wäre es wunderschön, wenn Lois und Clark gemeinsam in ihr neues Leben starten könnten. Doch wir wissen auch, dass es nur selten gelingt, für zwei Hunde gleichzeitig das passende Zuhause zu finden. Deshalb darf auch Lois allein vermittelt werden, wenn sie Menschen findet, die ihr mit Geduld und Liebe zeigen, wie schön das Leben sein kann.Wer schenkt dieser sanften kleinen Hündin das Zuhause, auf das sie so lange gewartet hat? Gerne beantworten wir Ihre Fragen.

About Louis T

What life with Louis T looks like

Louis T is a very small young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hundepfoten Steinfurt e.V. in Nordwalde.

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 Louis T, answered.

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